[Can we help our patients to stop smoking?: the experience of the Smoking Cessation Program].

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To describe the process and results of the Smoking Cessation Program in order to answer this question: Does the lack of time and resources justify poor involvement of physicians in helping patients to stop smoking? METHODS:Prospective series of cases that included all smokers (n = 1203) who for any reason attended seven general practices over a period of one year. The behaviour of smokers when the program was offered as well as the workload generated by the implementation of the process are described. Subjects who stopped smoking were those who did not smoke two years after enrolment in a sustained and validated form for least 12 months. RESULTS:A total of 7.3% of all smokers quit (95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.9-8.9). Enrolment of subjects caused an increase in the consultation time of 23 seconds and decreased from a mean of 30 new smokers per month per practice during the first three months to 12 at the end of the first year. All received advise to stop smoking (mean increase of 3 min and 33 s) but only 17.5% accepted the therapeutic plan during the first year (95% CI: 15.4-19.9) that had a duration of 72:11 min and generated a mean of six programmed appointments a month in each practice. Twenty percent of subjects who participated in the therapeutic plan stopped smoking (95% CI: 14.8-26.1). CONCLUSIONS:Identification and universal advice to smokers, together with treatment of those who are motivated to quit, achieved important success rates without increasing excessively ordinary work loads.
