Objetivo : Avaliar o consumo de álcool em estudantes de enfermagem em uma instituição privada no interior do Estado do Mato Grosso do Sul. Método :Trata-se de um estudo exploratório descritivo de abordagem quantitativa. Utilizou-se o Teste de identificação do uso de álcool AUDIT- C. Resultados: A amostra foi composta por 163 alunos, predominantemente do sexo feminino (65,6%), com idade entre 18 e 46 anos, média de 23,9 anos. Dos participantes 48,5% consumiam em níveis de risco e 19 % uso nocivo. Constatou-se que os estudantes solteiros apresentaram mais chances de consumir bebidas alcoólicas em nível de risco, além disso, quanto mais jovem e em semestres iniciais do curso maiores são chances dos estudantes serem classificados nesse padrão de uso. Não houve diferenças de padrão de consumo entre os sexos. Conclusão: A implantação de estratégias de prevenção para consumo de risco no âmbito universitário torna-se de fundamental importância.

OBJECTIVE: to determine the prevalence of substance abuse and unsafe sexual practices and to analyze the relationship between them, in nursing students at the University of Seville. METHOD: quantitative methodological approach with a descriptive cross-sectional design. The population was composed of first year nursing students in the University of Seville, during the academic year 2010-2011 (N=510), with consecutive opportunistic sampling composed of students who attended class on the scheduled day (n=291). RESULTS: a high prevalence of alcohol consumption, and increased likelihood of not using protective measures during sexual practices when alcohol had been consumed, was present. CONCLUSION: these findings are consistent with those obtained in the same population in Brazil, and highlight the need to strengthen in the nursing curriculum, the transverse axis related to the prevention of substance abuse, especially alcohol.

Objective: to determine the consumption of alcohol, tobacco, eating habits, and physical activity among nursing students and to detect whether being a nursing student is a protective factor against these habits. Method: a questionnaire was used to collect information on age, academic year, sex, alcohol and tobacco consumption, physical activity, and healthy eating. An information sheet and informed consent form were given. The sample was composed of 264 students aged between 18-30 years from four academic years. Results: of the total sample, 15.5% smoked, 83.7% consumed alcoholic beverages and 97.2% consumed over the weekend. The total of 68.6% did not practice exercises and 70.5% needed changes in their diet. Conclusion: nursing students have high levels of alcohol consumption and low levels of smoking compared with other studies. The higher the academic year, the lower the age of onset of tobacco consumption. The number of men who exercised was higher, which is considered a protective factor against alcohol and tobacco consumption and is related to a healthy diet. Smoking has a negative influence on diet. The students needed to change their diet. Finally, being a nursing student is not considered a protective factor against alcohol and tobacco consumption, nor having good eating habits and exercising.
