Methods: a quasi-experimental study of educational intervention was carried out, with a sample consisting of 45 smokers from a non-probabilistic sampling and the intentional scheme, taking into account inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results: the majority of smokers were between 40 and 49 years old, 64,4 % belonged to male sex, 71,1 % of the sample had a work, and respondents with secondary education level stand out. Prior to the intervention, a low risk perception prevailed in 62,2 % of the cases and after the development of the intervention 95,6 % of the people presented a high risk perception.
