مقايسه ي عوارض ناشي از سوء مصرف مواد مخدر طبيعي و مواد غيرمجاز صناعي در بيماران معتاد

سوء مصرف مواد مخدر، يك الگوي غيرانطباقي از مصرف مواد است كه منجر به مشكلات مكرر و پيامدهاي سوء مي شود. مواد مخدر طبيعي و مواد غيرمجاز صناعي مي توانند با عوارض متعدد جسمي و رواني همراه باشند. هدف از اين مطالعه مقايسه ي عوارض ناشي از سوء مصرف مواد مخدر طبيعي و مواد غيرمجاز صناعي در بيماران معتاد بود.ميانگين سني بيماران گروه 1، 2/14±5/41 سال و گروه 2، 0/7±0/28 سال بود. فراواني مواد مخدر مصرفي ترياك، حشيش، شيشه و كراك به ترتيب 35%، 15%، 38% و 12% بود. مدت بستري بيماران در دو گروه، تفاوت معناداري با هم نداشت(05/0P)، وضعيت تأهل(0001/0>P) و سابقه ي فاميلي اعتياد به مواد مخدر(04/0P=)، اختلاف معناداري وجود داشت. ميزان مرگ و مير در گروه 1، 8% و در گروه 2% 26% بود كه از نظر آماري اختلاف معناداري يافت شد(01/0P=).

Background: Drug abuse is a non-adaptive pattern of substance use leading to frequent problems and adverse consequences. Natural substances and synthetic illicit drugs can be associated with several physical and psychological effects. The aim of this study is to compare the side effects of natural substances and synthetic illicit drugs abuse in addicted patients. Methods: In this descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional study, 55 patients addicted to natural substances (group 1= opium and hashish) were compared with 55 people addicted to illicit synthetic drugs (group 2= methamphetamine and crack). Having recorded the demographic characteristics of the patients, medical history and clinical examination were taken for all patients, and the results of clinical and paraclinical evaluations using medical records of patients were assessed. Collected data were analyzed by using SPSS-21 statistical software and chi-square and t tests. Results: The mean age of patients in group 1 was 4115±1412 years and in group 2 it was 2815±715 years. The frequencies of using opium, hashish, methamphetamine and crack were 353, 153, 383 and 123, respectively. Regarding the Duration of hospitalization of the patients in both groups there was no significant difference (P>5155). There was significant differences between two groups in terms of age (P<515551), marital status (P<515551), and family history of drug addiction (P= 5154). The mortality rate in group 1 was 83, and in group 2 it was 263, the difference which was statistically significant (P= 5151). Half of the patients addicted to natural substances had passed away due to heart disease and half of others due to pulmonary disorders. Also the most common cause of death among synthetic illicit drug addicts was heart disease (35183).
