    Promotion of a healthy lifestyle is an important aspect of family practitioners' work. Nonsmoking is of extreme importance for patients with asbestos disease, given the fact that the synergistic ... interaction between cigarette smoke and asbestos exposure is leading to an elevated risk of lung cancer. The aim of this thesis is to contribute towards a raised awareness of the importance on non-smoking, and of risks due to smoking among people suffering from asbestosis, as well as among those exposed to asbestos. The author did a research among patients attending the Deskle general practice, who suffered from asbestosis. The statistically significant results showed that in this group, the proportion of smokers (9.5%) was smaller compared to the Slovene population (23.7%), while the proportion of ex-smokers (32.3%) washigher compared to the Slovene population (24.0%). We can conclude that this group was more motivated and more successful in smoking cessation. Of former smokers, two thirds reported that they had received support from doctor, one third used nicotine substitutes, and 5.6% joined a supportive group. However, the most important factor which encouraged them to stop smoking was the belief that smoking damages health, and health problems experienced due to their smoking. Actual smokers reported low or medium nicotine dependency (77.4%). A large majority (75,0%) said they wanted to quitsmoking. Those who had already seriously tried to quit smoking at least once (82.4%) or even four and more times (20,6%), reported that the main reasons for relapse were nervousness, personal problems and stress-inducting situations. An important task of family practitioners is therefore promotion of non-smoking, and provision of help and support to people who want to quit smoking.
