| Popis: | Use of Electronic Cigarettes (e-cigs) and e-Shishas by Children and Adolescents: Evidence Paper of the Joint Addiction Commission of the German Societies and Professional Associations of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy Abstract. The particular risks associated with the consumption of electronic cigarettes (e-cigs) in children and adolescents are not sufficiently considered in the health policy discourse. The present article evaluates the current dissemination and consumption patterns of e-cigarettes as well as the health risks attached to children and adolescents. Based on data from current national and international studies, there has been a clear increase in the consumption of e-cigarettes over the past years. This stands in sharp contrast to the overall decline in tobacco consumption among both children and adolescents in Germany. Young people without tobacco experience are now consuming more frequently e-cigarettes than those who occasionally or regularly use tobacco. They also are experimenting more frequently with conventional cigarettes if they have previously consumed e-cigarettes. The largely unregulated availability of e-cigarette products to the newest generation, such as JUUL, led to a dramatic increase in their prevalence among high-school students in the USA. Products with high nicotine content and multiple flavors are being marketed intensively as trendy lifestyle products to young user groups via advertising and social media campaigns. These products are also becoming increasingly relevant in Germany. The success of tobacco prevention in recent years is presently jeopardized by the ongoing effective advertising for e-cigarettes. The Addiction Commission of the German Child and Youth Psychiatric Federations and Scientific Societies therefore call for an immediate, strict, and comprehensive ban of e-cigarette advertising. |
