The tobacco cessation program from one isolated duty station is presented. The cessation program used active duty Marines who wished to cease tobacco use. After completion of four classes, abstinence rates of 47% were obtained based on weekly follow-up self-reports for periods ranging from 7 to 32 weeks. Most relapses were noted in the first 2 weeks after quitting. The command expense was estimated at $165 per participant. Military health care professionals should actively participate in tobacco cessation regardless of access to specialized preventive medicine services. The cost benefit and optimal utilization of nicotine replacement therapy and newer tobacco cessation aids in active duty populations should be studied further.
本文介绍了一个偏远驻防地的戒烟项目。该戒烟项目面向希望戒烟的现役海军陆战队队员。在完成四节课的课程后，根据7至32周期间的每周随访自我报告，戒烟率达到了47%。大多数复吸情况发生在戒烟后的头两周。据估计，该项目每位参与者的费用为165美元。军事医疗保健专业人员应积极参与戒烟工作，无论是否能够获得专门的预防医学服务。对于现役人群中尼古丁替代疗法和新型戒烟辅助工具的成本效益及最佳利用情况，应进一步开展研究。
