Smoking cessation doctor's "new weapon": Test how old your smoke is!

On May 31, at the Guiyang World No Tobacco Day publicity site, the cigarette measuring instrument equipment of the Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital only took a few seconds to detect that the subject was a few smokers. It is reported that the instrument is a smoking cessation aid introduced recently by the provincial medical cessation clinic. It can help detect and confirm the concentration of smokers inhaled by using the principle of carbon monoxide sensor gas detection.

Guiyang Hospital uses a cigarette tester to help smokers quit smoking

According to the on-site doctor, the subject only needs to take a deep breath, then insert a disposable blower and blow a few breaths at the cigarette tester. In just a few seconds, the meter can detect that the subject is a few smokers.

Tobacco harm has become one of the most serious public health problems in the world. The harmful substances produced by tobacco burning include nearly 80 kinds of carcinogens, including colorless, odorless and toxic carbon monoxide.

According to the on-site doctor, as a trace carbon monoxide gas detector, this tester has a built-in carbon monoxide sensor detection component that can detect the concentration of carbon monoxide gas in the third-person human lung respiratory tract: the first gear shows 7-11 points, which is light. Degree smokers; the second gear 11-20 points, is a heavy smoker; the third gear is more than 20 points, it is necessary to consider the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Cigarette measuring instrument uses the principle of carbon monoxide sensor gas detection

In general, the carbon monoxide gas sensors in such devices are mostly electrochemical carbon monoxide sensors. The specific principle is: in the electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor, there is a pair of induction electrodes and a negative electrode, and the carbon monoxide diffused into the oxidation and reduction reactions respectively at the induction electrode and the negative electrode, thereby generating an internal current, the magnitude of which corresponds to carbon monoxide concentration.

Of course, the doctor also reminded that the meter and the alcohol detector are the same. The longer the time is from the previous cigarette, the lower the accuracy rate. In general, the test results from half an hour to one hour after smoking are the most accurate.

At present, this carbon monoxide gas detection device can be used in hospital smoking cessation clinics and clinics. It can collect the concentration of carbon monoxide gas in the respiratory tract of human lungs and perform instantaneous measurement display, which can provide good guidance and help for people who quit smoking. By letting smokers “reasonably” know the level of carbon monoxide in their blood, smokers are more willing to quit or more likely not to start smoking.
