TORRECILLA GARCIA, M. et al. Recommendations in diagnosis and treatment of tobacco cessation: Consensus document . Medifam [online]. 2002, vol.12, n.8, pp.30-40. ISSN 1131-5768.

Consumption of tobacco is the main cause of avoidable death in the developed countries. All the sanitary professionals play a key paper in their control. It is fundamental to carry out a correct diagnosis of each smoker's characteristics for offering him their more appropriate treatment. Along this consensus document among the scientific societies that contain the most interested sanitary professionals in the treatment of tobacco, it has been defined a group of clinical and analytic data that should be considered to establish the minimum group of data diagnoses in the smoker. We also recommend an appropriate therapeutic activity to each smoker's characteristic. This minimum group of data is the indispensable base to establish the most appropriate treatment to each individual with the objective of that the patient progresses in its process of tobacco cessation and stop to smoke in the shortest period of time and with the smallest personal cost. Likewise this minimum group of data allows to rationalize the intervention of the sanitary professional according to approaches of effectiveness and efficiency.
