Filter by:Unrestricted parental smoking habits are lifestyle risk behaviors associated with chronic, systemic inflammation, which promotes the pathogenesis of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke in early life contributes to the development of specific NCDs in children, i.e. asthma. Early preventive measures to improve lifestyle behavior in parents are therefore of utmost importance. The aim of ELIPSE-II is to assess whether an eHealth application intervention for parents is feasible and efficacious in lowering levels of urinary cotinine as a measure of second-hand smoke exposure in their children .
The current pilot study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a novel mHealth app designed for people who are ambivalent about quitting smoking. Results will be used to refine the intervention and plan for a future randomized effectiveness trial.
The Stanford Tobacco Prevention Toolkit is a free online curriculum developed for use by educators and health professionals in providing tobacco-specific prevention education to middle and high school students. The aims of this study are to determine: (1) whether the Curriculum is effective in changing middle and high school students' resistance to using tobacco as well as knowledge of, attitudes towards, and intentions to use different tobacco products; and (2) whether the Curriculum is effective in changing middle and high school students' actual use of tobacco in the short-term.
