“…No assessments of improvements in knowledge of the effect of smoking on health or smoking cessation strategies were measured, despite these being the main component of the information given in the interventions. However, Emmons 2005 26,97 reported that most participants found the written material useful or very useful. Rates of participation and attrition can be used as surrogate markers for the acceptability of a programme.…”

“…The promotora and participant reviewed past quit attempts, discussed the pros and cons of smoking and quitting, discussed self-monitoring to identify smoking patterns, identified potential reinforcements and substitute behaviours and discussed appropriate coping strategies, set a quit date, discussed experiences while quitting and relapse prevention, and talked about overall lifestyle change. In Emmons 2005 26,97 the intervention emphasised the smoker's choice, personal responsibility for change and enhancement of self-efficacy. The calls were tailored to the participants' stage of readiness to quit smoking and interest in other health topics and goals.…”

It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA programme is needs led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of pro...

“…The definition of a current smoker employed in this study was intended to capture even occasional smokers 32 because young cancer survivors tend to be lighter smokers, and any level of smoking can be harmful to the survivor's health. 7,11 Eligible survivors were invited to participate in a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of PFH-2, an internetbased version of the Partnership for Health (PFH) study, a survivor-focused smoking cessation intervention. 33,34 This paper presents baseline data from survivors who agreed to participate in the trial; study design is provided in detail elsewhere.…”

Purpose: This study assessed the prevalence of smoking restrictions among households of survivors of childhood and young adult cancer who smoke. It also examined the relationship between home smoking restrictions and motivation to quit smoking, as well as other smoking, psychosocial, and environmental factors. Methods: Participants included 374 smokers who were childhood or young adult cancer survivors (between the ages of 18 and 55 years) recruited from five cancer centers to participate in a randomized smoking cessation trial. Survivors completed baseline measures about the smoking restrictions in their households, their smoking behavior, and related psychological and environmental factors, which are the focus of the current manuscript. Results: Almost 54% of survivors reported that smoking was prohibited in their households. Living with a nonsmoking partner, having a strict smoking policy at work, and not being nicotine dependent all increased the likelihood of having a total home smoking ban. Participants who were older, smoked more cigarettes per day over the prior week, and received prior chemotherapy were less likely to reside in households that adopted total bans. Conclusion: Findings suggest that socio-environmental factors and current smoking behaviors are associated with complete smoking restrictions in the homes of survivors. These factors should be considered when communicating with survivors about the importance of establishing strict smoking policies in their private residences.

“…If baseline self-efficacy and readiness to change are controlled than the same cohort group is twice as more likely to achieve cessation than self-help group. 45 In a mental health setting with adults with serious psychiatric illness, peer support interventions had the highest outcomes. 46 It should also be noted that, lack of social support, puts an individual at a greater risk for depression.…”

Most tobacco intervention focus on behavioural methods to reduce dependence, the role of social support is unclear. The objective is to evaluate the evidence of social support as well as its efficacy with respect to tobacco cessation. It explores to understand the role of social support for an individual to make a behaviour change. Social support is one resource in the environment, if used effectively can be extremely beneficial for someone wanting to quit tobacco. A comprehensive literature search on the contribution of social support with respect to tobacco cessation was conducted to give a practical review for practitioners in the field. Overall, it was seen that all the studies strengthened the evidence for the role of social support in tobacco cessation. Although, more research is required in this field to comprehend the long haul advantages of social support and additionally its effects on psychological well-being as well as relapse prevention.
