Filter by:Aims: To characterize the pattern of cannabis and tobacco use and withdrawal symptoms in people who start treatment for cannabis use disorders (exclusive cannabis, concurrent and/or simultaneous with various tobacco products) through an aplication game and considering the type of users. Methodology: Mixed-methods research composed of three studies. Study I: qualitative participatory action study aimed at exploring the experiences and preferences of the cannabis users on the use of apps. This information will be instrumental in the co-design of the app. Study II: prospective longitudinal study aimed to establish consumption patterns and transitions between substances and to validate the scale of cannabis withdrawal symptoms in the Spanish population. Sample size: expected RR=1.20, α =0.05, β= 0.20, losses= 20% (n=282). Study III: qualitative study to explore participants' experiences during the process of quitting cannabis and / or tobacco. Expected results: Characterization and prediction of variables that influence cannabis and tobacco cessation/ reduction and describe withdrawal symptoms according to consumption patterns with aim of improving the design of future interventions.
The overall aim of the TiTAN Greece & Cyprus project is to expand the Global Bridges Tobacco Treatment Training Network in the WHO Europe region through a focus on primary health care providers in Greece and Cyprus. A robust evaluation will be conducted alongside the TiTAN program. A pre-post evaluation will be used to examine the impact on the TiTAN program on: 1. Provider engagement (number of providers attending training), number of local champions; 2. Provider knowledge, beliefs, perceived behavioral control, and intentions related to the delivery of tobacco treatment; 3. Rates of evidence-based tobacco treatments (5As) are delivered to patients who smoke; 4. Provider satisfaction with training program, resources, and network outreach activity and areas for improvement; and 5. Estimates on the impact on patient-level outcomes including number of patient quit smoking at 1 and 3-month follow-up. All PHC providers will be surveyed before and after the intervention program is delivered. We will randomly select a sub-sample of providers and will survey patients from their practice before and after the intervention program in order to validate changes in 5As delivery. Qualitative interviews will be completed with a sub-sample of providers at the end of year 1.
