“…It is possible that there is a link here: for example, the new legislation may have led to fewer tobacco smokers using e-cigarettes, and therefore fewer people stopped smoking. Other studies have already demonstrated a similar connection (24,25).…”

In this brief article, we review the evidence on whether easier access to vaping could help lower smoking rates in Australia. To make a convincing case for vaping the following conditions need to be met: that vaping assists in smoking cessation; that the prevalence of vaping is high enough to produce measurable effects at a population level; and that the decline in smoking prevalence is slower in countries where vaping is less common. The evidence suggests that these criteria are satisfied. [Mendelsohn C, Hall W, Borland R. Could vaping help lower smoking rates in Australia? Drug Alcohol Rev 2020;39:415-418]

“…Although millions of smokers are simultaneously using ECIGs [9, 10], for the purpose of quitting smoking, they usually do so without receiving any behavioral assistance. In addition, although more likely to make a quit attempt than smokers alone, they are not significantly more likely to actually quit [11]. Thus, an opportunity exists to facilitate smoking cessation among the large population of “dual users” who have demonstrated initial action toward smoking cessation by initiating ECIGs and are primed to benefit from a minimal intervention to enhance their chances of tobacco abstinence.…”

Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems, also called electronic cigarettes or e-cigarettes, have been available for over a decade and use has been increasing dramatically. The primary reported reasons for use are to aid smoking cessation or reduction, yet a significant proportion appear to be long-term users of both products (“dual users”). Dual users may be motivated to quit smoking and might benefit from a behavioral intervention for smoking cessation. This paper describes the intervention development, as well as the design, methods, and data analysis plans for an ongoing randomized controlled trial (RCT). Formative research and learner verification were conducted to create a usable, understandable, and acceptable self-help intervention targeting dual users. The efficacy is being tested in an RCT with current dual users (N=2900) recruited nationally and randomized to one of three conditions. The Assessment Only (ASSESS) group only completes assessments. The Generic Self-Help (GENERIC) group receives non-targeted smoking cessation booklets and supplemental materials sent monthly over 18 months. The e-cigarette Targeted Self-Help (eTARGET) group receives the newly developed intervention (targeted booklets and supplemental materials) sent over the same period. All participants complete self-report surveys every 3 months over 2 years. The primary study outcome is self-reported 7-day point prevalence abstinence. Cost-effectiveness metrics for the GENERIC and eTARGET interventions will also be calculated.

Electronic cigarettes, quit attempts and smoking cessation: a 6-month follow-up

Abstract: Among people who smoke, those also using an e-cigarette regularly are more likely to try to quit smoking and reduce their cigarette consumption during the next 6 months. It remains unclear whether regular e-cigarette users are also more likely to stop smoking.
