Filter by:Smoking cessation assistance is one of the major issues in prevention policies because the prevalence of smoking remains high in France. With its numerous consultations, an emergency service seems to be an interesting place for setting up and helping with weaning, despite specific working conditions. The study, which is a pilot, is interested in the feasibility and efficacy of the implementation of a STIR (Screening, Treatment Intervention and Referral) protocol, which screening, brief intervention, nicotine replacement therapy and referral to a specialist in order to help the patients in smoking cessation.
The long-term goal of FRESH Delivers is to fill a critical gap in knowledge on the role of a home-based food delivery social intervention in the elimination of tobacco-caused cancer health disparities. The central hypothesis is that smokers who receive real-time video-based motivational counseling and home-based food deliveries will have greater cotinine-verified 7-day point prevalence abstinence than those who receive real-time video-based motivational counseling alone or home food delivery alone. The rationale for this approach is that studies show increased odds of smoking cessation with increasing food security.
We developed and established the efficacy of a theory-based, culturally- and gender-relevant Community Health Worker (CHW) intervention for low-income Brazilian women that augments the tobacco cessation program offered through the public health system. This study represents the continuation of our gender-relevant tobacco control efforts in Brazil by proposing the adaptation of this CHW-delivered tobacco cessation program to be integrated with mHealth support through mobile devices (App). We are proposing an integrated CHW-mHealth application that (a) is culturally- and gender-relevant, (b) is theory-based (Social Cognitive Theory), (c) considers the existing structure of the Brazilian health care system, and (d) will be adapted based on an efficacious intervention as well as salient features of other mHealth applications that have been shown to be successful in engaging users. During phase I we will make the adaptations and determine feasibility of a CHW-delivered intervention that is integrated with a mHealth tobacco cessation application (interactive App for participants and tracking system for CHWs) through formative assessments among all involved stakeholders, pretesting, and pilot testing of the intervention. In phase II we will assess the effectiveness of the integrated CHW-mHealth tobacco cessation intervention through a group randomized trial with towns as the unit of randomization (8 towns, N=344). The comparison group will be the same as the previous intervention (consisting of a home visit by a CHW during which the participant is scheduled to attend the tobacco cessation program at the neighborhood public health clinic) to allow for comparisons. We hypothesize that at 6-months, women smokers who receive the integrated CHW-mHealth intervention will have significantly higher 7-day point prevalence abstinence (defined as no cigarettes in the past 7 days) than women smokers in the control condition. Self-report will be verified through measurement of exhaled carbon monoxide levels among 30% of participants. If shown to be effective, this approach could be utilized as a model for a population-based intervention in low-resource settings, including rural and disadvantaged women in the U.S.
All patients with serious mental illness are abstinent while in the hospital for a psychiatric admission yet almost all return to smoking after discharge. The investigators propose to adapt a digital intervention both to the needs of SMI smokers and to being introduced in the inpatient psychiatric setting through a collaboration between experts in SMI and the Truth Initiative, a pre-eminent tobacco control organization. The investigators believe this will bridge the inpatient to outpatient gap in cessation services and will help people remain abstinent following hospital discharge.
Zari workers in Mumbai city will be assessed for tobacco consumption habit. They will be divided into 3 arms as - 1) First arm will get Medium intensity tobacco cessation intervention 2) Second arm will get low intensity tobacco cessation intervention 3) Control arm. At the end of 12 months of intervention quit rates will be compared.
