ABSTRACT
Without a doubt, smoking continues to be the leading cause
of disease, disability, and premature death worldwide. How-
ever, the advent of the new Electronic Administration Systems
of Nicotine (SEAN), among which the electronic cigarette
stands out, has had explosive growth and in some
countries has depleted tobacco cigarettes, especially among
young people who feel attracted by its striking flavors and
the deployment of technology that is used in its design and
operation.
The SEANs initially emerged in 2003 as a supposed help to
quit smoking, at 16 years from this date no clinical studies are
confirming their superiority over existing medications for this
purpose: nicotine, bupropion and varenicline replacement
therapies, or over psychological therapies such as emotional
and cognitive-behavioral rational. On the other side, a large
amount of evidence has been accumulated on the deleterious
effect they have on the health of consumers, the risk they
represent is unquestionable and this is confirmed by recent
reports from the Centers for Disease Control of the United
States (CDC) that indicate 2142 hospitalized cases with acute
lung disease and 42 deaths from this cause, 79% being people
under 35 years. This outbreak of lung disease has determined
that the ban on SEAN in the United States will be planted.
Also, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved
the sale of hybrid cigarettes or “Heets” (Heat-not-burn tobacco
products), which uses heated tobacco, and are now
available in our country.
There is no doubt that as health professionals, we must
inform with scientific evidence about the risks that SEANs
pose to their consumers, we must also learn from the history
of smoking to prevent the morbidity and mortality associated
with these new tobacco products.
