Since rates of smoking cessation in psychiatric patients are low, the manner in which information on the importance of abstinence is presented and the scope of the treatment provided to psychiatric patients who have decided not to smoke are very important. This article will describe the development and implementation of a smoking-cessation group for chronic mentally ill patients. Components of the program are described and a detailed case example is provided. The smoking behavior of patients who participated in the first year of programming is reviewed, along with patient evaluation of program effectiveness. Our experience demonstrates the importance of psychoeducation for chronic psychiatric patients who tend not to have received formal education on the dangers of smoking and the possibility of addiction. Our findings indicate that patients are willing to learn more about smoking and the consequences of this behavior, even though many of them were not able to set quit dates. The provision of information through education groups increases the possibility of moving patients to the precontemplation stage.
由于精神病患者的戒烟率较低,因此向他们传达戒烟重要性信息的方式以及为决定不吸烟的精神病患者提供的治疗范围非常重要。本文将描述为慢性精神病患者设立的戒烟小组的发展和实施情况。文中介绍了该项目的组成部分,并提供了一个详细的案例。回顾了参与该项目第一年的患者的吸烟行为,以及患者对项目效果的评估。我们的经验表明,对于那些往往没有接受过吸烟危害和成瘾可能性正规教育的慢性精神病患者,心理教育非常重要。我们的研究结果表明,患者愿意更多地了解吸烟及其行为后果,尽管他们中的许多人无法设定戒烟日期。通过教育小组提供信息增加了使患者进入思考前期阶段的可能性。
