The Effect of Immediate Smoking Cessation Interventions for Smokers With Chronic Airway Diseases

March 1, 2023 updated by: Dilek KARADOĞAN, Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital

Investigation of the Effectiveness of Immediate Smoking Cessation Interventions During Routine Outpatient Service in Current Smoker Chronic Airway Disease Patients

Smoking cessation support is provided by smoking cessation outpatient clinics in our country. Smokers with chronic airway diseases can also apply to these services by making an appointment from quit lines. Quit rates of that group patients were found to be similar to the general population. In novel smoking cessation support approaches immediate cessation support is reported to be more effective than routine practice. The sample in these studies consists of individuals who applied for lung health screening programmes. There is no study in the literature examining the effect of this immediate support on patients with chronic airway diseases' quit success. Our aim with this study is to examine impact of immediate cessation support by getting an appointment to the same cessation clinic instantly on our sample's cessation success.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients who are current smokers (who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and still smoke daily or some days) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the two arms in sequential order of presentation, after they have been identified and given written informed consent about the study. Demographic and clinical features will be filled. A brief smoking cessation intervention will be applied to one group and they will be recommended to apply to smoking cessation outpatient clinics by obtaining appointment from quit lines, as the way of current routine practice. Those randomized to the other group will have an immediate appointment at the smoking cessation outpatient clinic in addition to the brief smoking cessation intervention. Both patient groups will be called after 1 week by phone to inquire about their smoking cessation status and their application to smoking cessation outpatient clinics. Both groups will be called again in the 3rd month and their smoking cessation status, their application to smoking cessation outpatient clinics, and the duration/status of using pharmacological smoking cessation treatments will be questioned.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Routine support/care arm
As the followed routine implementation, this group will be given a brief smoking cessation intervention and will be recommended to apply to smoking cessation outpatient clinics by getting an appointment from quit services.
Active Comparator: Immediate support arm
Those randomized to this group will have an immediate appointment at the smoking cessation outpatient clinic in addition to the brief smoking cessation intervention.
Smoker patients with chronic airway diseases (asthma and/or COPD and/or bronchiectasis) will be evaluated for the inclusion criteria. Afterwards they will be randomized as routine support arm (as the current procedure of the care) and immediate support arm (intensive brief cessation advices following by the immediate arrangement of the appointment from the same clinic's smoking cessation service). Both arms will be followed remotely at first week and third months of the randomization regarding their quit status as well as their use of evidence based cessation treatments.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quit rate of both study arms
Time Frame: At third month of randomization
To compare the quit rate at third month of randomization in the both arms: intensive support arm compared to routine support arm. A quitter will be considered who have never smoked since the target quit day.
At third month of randomization

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Smoking cessation outpatient clinic application rate of both study arms
Time Frame: At third month
The admission status to smoking cessation outpatient clinics of both arms will be evaluated: admitted at least once or never admitted.
At third month
