Elektronik sigara; söylenildiği gibi zararsız olmayıp insan sağlığı açısından tehlikeli olduğu bilinen maddeler ihtiva etmektedir. E-sigaralarda, sigaralardakinin benzeri (formaldehit, asetaldehit, akrolein, dietilene glikol, nikel, kromium, kurşun vb.) kimyasallar bulunmaktadır. Son birkaç sene içinde, diğer ülkelerde olduğu gibi, Türkiye’de de kullanımı bir hayli yaygınlaşmıştır. Bu aletin özellikleri, insan sağlığı üzerine etkileri, tütün sigarasını bırakmaya yönelik potansiyeli dünya çapında ilgi çekmektedir. Bu amaca yönelik olarak e-sigara cihazı ve kullanımına ait genel bilgiler ile cihaz üzerine yapılan çalışmalar incelenmiştir. Bu konuda yapılan çalışmalar; anketler, klinik gözlem çalışmaları ile potansiyel zararlı etkilere yönelik klinik ve girişimsel çalışmalar şeklinde detaylı bir şekilde gözden geçirilmiştir. Günümüzde e-sigaraların güvenilirliğine ilişkin yeterli bilimsel çalışma yoktur. Her ne kadar bu sigaraların tütün içermediği iddia edilse de içlerinde bağımlılığa yol açan nikotin bulunmaktadır.

Bu derleme makalenin amacı;  Elektronik sigaranın  özellikleri, insan sağlığı üzerine etkileri, dünya çapında kullanımına dikkat çekmekte ve konu üzerine yapılan yayınları gözden geçirerek okuyucuların objektif bir bakış açısına sahip olmalarının sağlanmaktır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: elektronik sigara, tütün, insan sağlığı ve sigara, tütün sigarası
