Telephone-based Motivational Interviewing for Smoking Cessation in Crohn's Disease Patients

Telephone-based Motivational Interviewing Delivered by IBD ( Inflammatory Bowel Disease) Nurses for Smoking Cessation in Crohn's Disease: a Randomized Open-label Clinical Trial

Quitting smoking unequivocally improves the course of Crohn's disease (EC), and therefore, it should be one of the main therapeutic targets in the treatment of this disease. The goal of the study was to know the effectiveness of motivational intervention 5 R for smoking cessation in patients with Crohn's disease performed by telephone by nursing, in relation to those who did not receive such intervention.

For this purpose, a controlled, randomized, parallel and open clinical trial was designed. The subjects were patients with Crohn's disease that were actively smoking EC. They were all >18 years old and they had internet access and e-mail. Those who were already in a process of smoking cessation were excluded from the study. Experimental intervention consisted of a motivational intervention for smoking cessation through telephone every 3 months for one year.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Telephone-based motivational interviewing
Experimental intervention consisted of a motivational intervention for smoking cessation through telephone every 3 months for one year, performed by IBD nurse

The motivational brief intervention is known by the acronym 5 R and lasts about 5-10 minutes. It is an approach based on the principles of motivational interviewing and develops the intervention in five short steps:

  • Relevance. Help patients identify why personal reasons may be relevant to quitting smoking.
  • Risks. Help identify what negative consequences tobacco use has.
  • Rewards. Help identify potential benefits of quitting smoking.
  • Resistors. Help patients identify barriers to smoking cessation, which can often include fear of withdrawal symptoms, failure, wainweight, face social situations, etc.
  • Repeat. Repeat the intervention at 3 months if you do not advance at the stage of change.
NO_INTERVENTION: usual care
No intervention consisted of a single telephone contact one year after the star of the study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from motivation to quit smoking after at one year in the control group and in the experimental group
Time Frame: We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
Test de Richmond: to measure the motivation to quit smoking. It consists of 4 questions, scores from 0 to 10, highest score, highest motivation. It provides three categories, low motivation <4 points, medium motivation 5-6 and high motivation ≥7
We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
Change from stages of changes to quit smoking after at one year in the control group and in the experimental group
Time Frame: We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
Stages of changes form Prochaska / DiClemente. Transtheoretical model of change consists of 4 mutually exclusive questions and has a legend where it classifies patients according to the state of the wheel of change in which they are: pre-contemplation, preparation, action, maintenance, consolidation and relapse.
We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of patients with Crohn's disease who quit smoking at the end of the study in the control group and in the experimental group.
Time Frame: We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
Cosnes classification: current smokers >7 cigarettes per week for at least 6 months, former smokers who had stopped smoking at least 6 months before.
We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The rate of patients who had received the 5 A intervention referred to the smoking cessation unit.
Time Frame: We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
Control visits in Hospital smoking cessation Unit
We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
The rate of patients who had received the 5 R intervention referred to the smoking cessation unit.
Time Frame: We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
Control visits in Hospital smoking cessation Unit
We measure it at baseline and through study completion, 1 year after
