研究概览
简要总结
The primary aim of this research study is to determine whether titrated, patient-directed transdermal patch NRT, based on smoking history and symptoms of nicotine withdrawal, improves long-term rates of smoking cessation in patients motivated to quit smoking when compared to patients using the standard transdermal NRT patch protocol. The following hypothesis will be tested: CO-validated continuous abstinence rate at 52 weeks post target quit date will be higher for the titrated, self-directed NRT group compared to the standard NRT treatment group.
详细描述
Participants will be recruited from the UOHI Smoking Cessation Clinic and via media advertisements. Following their baseline assessment, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:
- 10-week standard treatment of transdermal nicotine replacement therapy (NRT);or
- 10-week titrated transdermal nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) treatment with additional NRT product (NRT+)
Participants assigned to the "NRT" standard treatment group will follow a 10-week regimen of nicotine patches alone.
Participants assigned to the "NRT+" titrated treatment group will follow a 10-week regimen of tailored patch dosage. Participants will also be provided with the Nicorette inhaler.
All participants will receive five 15-minute counselling sessions from a smoking cessation counsellor. These sessions occur at 1, 3, 5, 8 and 10 weeks post target quit date. Counselling sessions will focus on practical counselling (problem solving and skills training) and social support.
