Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in severe mental illness: A timely diagnosis to advance the process of quitting smoking

Abstract: BackgroundThis study has two main objectives: to describe the prevalence of undetected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in a clinical sample of smokers with severe mental illness (SMI), and to assess the value of the Tobacco Intensive Motivational Estimated Risk tool, which informs smokers of their respiratory risk and uses brief text messages to reinforce intervention.MethodA multicenter, randomized, open-label, and active-controlled clinical trial, with a 12-month follow-up. Outpatients with schi… Show more

“… 44 There is some evidence that better quit rates can be achieved when smoking cessation is integrated within specialist mental healthcare settings 45 or with the addition of spirometry and feedback on lung age and degree of airways obstruction. 46 Our findings suggest that in order to close the widening gap in smoking prevalence and its consequences for people with mental health conditions, the focus in primary care should change from the quantity of advice given to the quality. This should include routine assessment of willingness to change, greater provision of assistance to quit and arranging follow-up as part of a ‘5As’ strategy 31 and could include other elements such as spirometry with feedback to better support smoking cessation in people with mental health conditions.…”

“…This is of concern given the ongoing high smoking rates in those with poor mental health, particularly those with SMI 44. There is some evidence that better quit rates can be achieved when smoking cessation is integrated within specialist mental healthcare settings45 or with the addition of spirometry and feedback on lung age and degree of airways obstruction 46. Our findings suggest that in order to close the widening gap in smoking prevalence and its consequences for people with mental health conditions, the focus in primary care should change from the quantity of advice given to the quality.…”

“…Pulmonary and metabolic comorbidities were significantly increased in the group of patients with schizophrenia, they being more prone to associate pulmonary, metabolic, cardiovascular comorbidities. 21,22 They smoke excessively, 23 have a sedentary lifestyle 24 with an unbalanced diet 25 which predisposes them to severe cardiac events and sudden death. 26 The fact that patients were already hospitalized and their comorbidities were monitored, treated and stable, the fact that they live in a controlled environment with a caloric diet and also with smoking restrictions, can all be considered factors that have contributed to a low level of mortality and to full recovery after SARS-CoV-2 infection.…”

“…Eleven studies using portable spirometers in the COPD-targeted -screening process met the predefined criteria (Group A, Table 1) [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. In all selected articles, a portable spirometer was used both for the baseline spirometry and in the postbronchodilator testing.…”
