Profiling of quitting trajectories during smoking cessation attempt (SMOKEPROFILE-Study)
|
abstract
|
The study hypothesis is twofold. First, we hypothesize that
investigating daily tobacco consumption of smokers attempting to
quit can be used to characterize clinically relevant quitting
trajectories which can be used to predict quitting success. Our
second hypothesis states that a mindfulness-based intervention can
increase smokers’ awareness in their smoking habit, which
should increase their motivation to quit smoking. In this context,
the aim of the project is to establish a new routine procedure in
our smoking cessation counseling and assess its feasibility and
efficacy. We would like to introduce a daily monitoring of the
participant’s tobacco consumption using a self-reported diary
app. Each participant fills out a simple questionnaire
electronically on a daily basis regarding his/her tobacco
consumption. Information on daily smoking consumption should provide
sufficiently detailed data to detect more precise smoking/quitting
trajectories and assess their predictive value in terms of quitting
success.
