To identify factors associated with successful quitting at a free tobacco treatment clinic.
A cohort study of the first 1021 patients who made a quit attempt. Baseline and treatment variables were recorded, and logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with abstinence at 4-week and 6-month follow-up.
Three hundred twenty (31.3%) patients reported tobacco abstinence at 6 months. Several markers of low socioeconomic status and high nicotine dependence were predictive of poorer smoking cessation outcomes. Compliance with evidence-based treatment was associated with improved treatment outcome, as was older age and having more than 2 children.
Efforts should be made to enhance treatment compliance among smokers with indicators of high nicotine dependence and low socioeconomic status.
确定在一家免费烟草治疗诊所成功戒烟的相关因素。
对首批1021名尝试戒烟的患者进行队列研究。记录基线和治疗变量,并使用逻辑回归来确定在4周和6个月随访时与戒烟相关的因素。
320名(31.3%)患者在6个月时报告已戒烟。社会经济地位低和尼古丁依赖程度高的几个指标预示着戒烟效果较差。遵循循证治疗与改善治疗结果相关,年龄较大和子女超过2个也有同样的关联。
应努力提高尼古丁依赖程度高和社会经济地位低的吸烟者的治疗依从性。
