Abstract     The results of numerous research work have shown that smoking accelarates the development of aterosclerosis (especially of coronary arteries), the consequence of which are ishaemic heart disorders, among them also myocardial infarction. The influence of smoking on the occurence of acute myocardial infarction is described, especially from the point of duration of smoking, quantity of smoked tobacco per day, smoking of different kinds of cigarettes, the relation between age and smoking, the relation between cessation of smoking and relative risk, influence of smoking on other risk factors, and education level of smokers. It has been proved that smoking is one of the main factors of acute myocardial infarction; therefore, the importance of permanent health education, ideally carried out by a professor of health education and a nurse in assistance of other health workers, is stressed.
Summary     Rezultati številnih znanstvenih raziskav so pokazali, da kajenje pospešuje razvoj ateroskleroze (zlasti na koronarnem ožilju), kar privede do ishemične bolezni srca, kamor sodi tudi akutni miokardni infarkt. V Sloveniji število kadilcev še vedno narašča, zlasti med mladostniki. Opisan je vpliv kajenja na nastanek akutnega miokardnega infarkta, predvsem glede na trajanje kajenja, količine pokajnega tobaka na dan, kajenje različnih vrst cigaret, vpliv starosti in kajenje, povezano med opustitvijo kajenja in relativnin tveganjem, kajenje in način življenja, vpliv kajenja na druge dejavnike tveganja in stopnjo izobraženosti pri kadilcih. Dokazano je, da sodi kajenje med glavne dejavnike za nastanek akutnega miokardnega infarkta, prav zaradi tega je zelo pomembna permanentna zdravstvena vzgoja, ki jo najuspešneje izvajata profesor zdravstvene vzgoje in medicinska sestra ob pomoči drugih zdravstvenih delavcev.
