The disproportionately high prevalence of tobacco use among prisoners remains an important public health issue. While Ireland has well-established legislative bans on smoking in public places, these do not apply in prisons. This study evaluates a multi-component tobacco control intervention in a medium security prison for adult males in Ireland. A stop-smoking intervention, targeting staff and prisoners, was designed, implemented, and evaluated with a before-and-after study. Analysis was conducted using McNemar's test for paired binary data, Wilcoxon signed rank test for ordinal data, and paired T-tests for continuous normal data. Pre-intervention, 44.3% ( = 58) of the study population were current smokers, consisting of 60.7% of prisoners ( = 51) and 15.9% of staff ( = 7). Post-intervention, 45.1% of prisoners ( = 23/51) and 100% of staff ( = 7/7) who identified as current smokers pre-intervention reported abstinence from smoking. Among non-smokers, the proportion reporting being exposed to someone else's cigarette smoke while being a resident or working in the unit decreased from 69.4% ( = 50/72) pre-intervention to 27.8% ( = 20/72) post-intervention ( < 0.001). This multicomponent intervention resulted in high abstinence rates, had high acceptability among both staff and prisoners, and was associated with wider health benefits across the prison setting.
囚犯中烟草使用比例过高仍然是一个重要的公共卫生问题。尽管爱尔兰有完善的公共场所禁烟立法,但这些法律不适用于监狱。本研究评估了在爱尔兰一所中等安全级别的男子监狱中实施多方面烟草控制干预的效果。针对工作人员和囚犯设计并实施了一项戒烟干预措施,并进行了前后对照研究。采用配对二项分类数据的 McNemar 检验、有序分类数据的 Wilcoxon 符号秩检验和连续正态数据的配对 T 检验进行分析。在干预前,研究人群中有 44.3%(=58)的人是当前吸烟者,其中 60.7%(=51)是囚犯,15.9%(=7)是工作人员。干预后,51 名囚犯中有 60.7%(=23/38)的人以及 7 名工作人员报告在干预前是当前吸烟者,他们已经戒烟。在非吸烟者中,报告在居住或工作单位期间暴露于他人香烟烟雾的比例从干预前的 69.4%(=50/72)下降到干预后的 27.8%(=20/72)(<0.001)。这项多方面的干预措施导致了高戒烟率,在工作人员和囚犯中都具有很高的可接受性,并在整个监狱环境中带来了更广泛的健康益处。
