About this study

Official title: Motivational Interviewing as a Smoking Cessation Strategy With Nurses: an Exploratory Randomized Controlled Trial Following the MRC's Framework for Complex Interventions

This study's objective was to test the efficacy, acceptability and feasibility of a motivational interviewing (MI) based smoking cessation intervention with nurses.

Read the detailed description

Despite the important role that health professionals have in reducing tobacco use, many have a smoking habit themselves. The prevalence of smoking is particularly high among nurses. A smoking cessation intervention for nurses who smoked, based on MI, was designed and evaluated following the UK Medical Research Council's (MRC) framework for complex interventions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Motivational interviewing for smoking cessation in nursesBehavioural

    Intervention, four one-to-one sessions on an approximately weekly basis, with 3 components: MI context, toolkit, and relapse prevention. The sessions were embedded in a MI context and followed two phases: exploratory and resolutive. The former explored the potential ambivalence that nurses experienced and constructed motivation for change; the latter reinforced the decision to quit and developed a change plan. Participants could choose over a range of tools: some more helpful in the exploratory phase (i.e. decisional balance sheet) and others in the resolutive phase (i.e. problem solving skills). The third component was directed at maintenance strategies. The therapy stayed with the nurses in terms of where they were in relation to they readiness for change.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Biochemically verified smoking cessation

    Urine sample collected in nurses who self-reported being abstinent for at least one week

    Measured: Following nurses' self-report of quitting (end of intervention (1 month) to 3 month follow-up)

  2. Participant satisfaction

    Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CHQ-8) (Roberts et al 1984)

    Measured: End of intervention (1 month)

  3. Duration of sessions

    Following researcher's diary records

    Measured: End of intervention (1 month)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Changes in Mean cigarettes smoked

    Number of cigarettes smoked

    Measured: Baseline, end of intervention (1 month) and 3 month follow-up

  2. Changes in Stages of change

    Assessment of desire and readiness to quit smoking (Prochaska and Velicer, 1997)

    Measured: Baseline, end of intervention (1 month) and 3 month follow-up

  3. Changes in Nicotine Dependence

    Assessment of nicotine dependence using the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) (Becoña and Vazquez, 1998)

    Measured: Baseline, end of intervention (1 month) and 3 month follow-up

  4. Changes in Self-efficacy

    Assessment of general self-efficacy using GSE scale (Scholz et al, 2002)

    Measured: Baseline, end of intervention (1 month) and 3 month follow-up

  5. Changes in Depression score

    Depression screening using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) (Kroenke et al 2001)

    Measured: Baseline, end of intervention (1 month) and 3 month follow-up

  6. Adherence to MI

    Assessment of intervention fidelity and adherence to MI principles using Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity (MITI) Code (Moyers et al 2005)

    Measured: End of intervention (1 month)
