研究概览
简要总结
The aim of the study is to show that auriculotherapy is effective in smoking cessation.
详细描述
Smoking is a major risk factor for morbidity and mortality. The French High Authority for Health recommends that "All health professionals must advise every smoker to stop smoking, regardless of the form of tobacco used, and offer advice and assistance to quit". The modalities of accompaniment towards quitting and support during the withdrawal period vary according to each smoker, his or her degree of motivation, the intensity of his or her dependence, and any previous attempts.
Nicotine substitutes are the first-line drug treatment, and can be part of a strategy to stop using nicotine right away or to reduce consumption with a view to quitting later. According to the opinion of the High Council of Public Health of 22 February 2016, ZYBAN and CHAMPIX can be prescribed as second-line medications for smoking cessation.
The electronic cigarette is not recommended to date as a smoking cessation aid, but can be a smoking cessation aid.
Hypnosis, cognitive and behavioral therapies, acupuncture are also used for withdrawal.
Auriculotherapy (ART) is based on the observation that treating specific points on the pinna improves some symptoms, relieves pain and anxiety. It is practiced in the context of Pain Assessment and Treatment Centers (PATC) where it is particularly effective on certain stubborn pains, in supportive care and in cancerology. It is also effective in general medicine where it provides an interesting non-drug therapeutic aid. It is also used in smoking cessation.
