Resumo
Estimar a prevalência de uso de substâncias psicoativas, inclusive álcool e tabaco entre estudantes do ensino fundamental e médio de escolas públicas e privadas de uma cidade do interior paulista, assim como, identificar e analisar fatores preditores e protetores do uso de drogas. Metodologia: Foi realizado estudo transversal, com a aplicação de questionário estruturado, previamente testado, individual, anônimo, de auto-preenchimento e participação facultativa para alunos de escolas públicas e privadas, do ensino fundamental e médio do município. Resultados: Participaram do estudo 1933 indivíduos, sendo 50,2% do sexo masculino. A idade média foi de 15,1 l 1,5 anos. O álcool foi a droga mais consumida na vida e nos últimos trinta dias (respectivamente, 69,9% e 41,1%), seguido do tabaco (23,5% e 10,2%), maconha (7,3% e 3,8%) e solventes (7,2% e 2,9%). São apresentados valores de odds ratio para os principais fatores de risco e proteção ao uso de drogas identificados no trabalho, assim como os já ressaltados pela literatura (sexo, idade, classe econômica, religião, escolaridade - fundamental e médio, mesada, trabalho remunerado e tempo livre). Discussão: Discute-se a adequação de programas de prevenção desenvolvidos na escola, no período em que os escolares se encontram ainda em momento de experimentação e fases iniciais do uso de drogas, abordando aspectos relacionados à promoção da saúde, melhoria das condições de vida, atitudes pessoais e organização social, assim como, características e necessidades regionais.
To estimate the prevalence of the use of psychoactive substances, including alcohol and tobacco, among elementary and middle-school students in public and private schools from one city in the interior of Sao Paulo state, as well as to identify and analyze factors that predict and protect from the use/abuse of drugs. Methodology: A transversal study was accomplished with application of a structured questionnaire - previously tested, individual, anonymous, self-completed, and of facultative participation - for students of public and private schools of elementary and high school education. Results: A total of 1933 individuals participated in the study, 50.2% male. The mean age was 15.1 l 1.5 years. Alcohol was the drug most consumed throughout life and in the prior thirty days (respectively, 69.9% and 41.1%), followed by tobacco (23.5% and 10.2%), marijuana (7.3% and 3.8%) and solvents (7.2% and 2.9%). Odds ratio values are presented as the principal protective and risk factors for drug use identified in the work, as well as those already highlighted in the literature (sex, age, economic class, religion, education level - elementary and high school, monthly allowance, remunerated work and free time). Discussion: The adequacy of prevention programs developed in the school is discussed, for the period in which students are found still at the moment of experimentation and initial phases of drug use, dealing with aspects related to health promotion, improvement of life conditions, personal attitudes and social organization, as well as regional characteristics and necessities.
