본 연구의 목적은 남성 근로자의 금연을 돕기 위한 금연 힐링캠프의 참여가 금연에 미치는 효과를 검증하기 위함이다. 본 연구는 단일군 사전사후설계 연구이다. 28명의 남성 근로자들이 1박 2일동안 진행된 금연 힐링캠프 실험처치에 배정되었다. 중재의 효과검증은 금연 힐링캠프 직후에 측정되었다. 연구 결과 남성 근로자의 금연 준비도(t=-2.64, p=.013)와 금연 자기효능감(t=2.42, p=.022)은 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였고, 니코틴 의존도(t=2.55, p=.017)와 우울(t=2.85, p=.008)은 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다. 결론적으로, 사업장 남성 근로자를 대상으로 한 금연 힐링캠프는 남성 근로자들에게 금연에 대한 올바른 지식을 제공하고 금연준비도와 금연 자기효능감을 향상시킴으로써 남성 근로자의 금연을 도왔다는 점에서 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

Background: This study was conducted to identify the success rate for smoking cessation over time after participation in a therapeutic smoking cessation camp, and to identify how participant characteristics, including a supportive workplace environment for smoking cessation (SWESC), affect the success rate for smoking cessation. Methods: In all, 296 participants at smoking cessation camps in Ulsan between 2015 and 2020 were investigated. The success rates of smoking cessation after weeks 4, 6, 12, and 24 at camp were investigated. The participants were grouped as workers with an SWESC, and workers without an SWESC, and variables (age, education, household income, marital status, drinking, exercise, body mass index, morbidity, job, number of counseling sessions, cigarettes smoked per day and smoking initiation age) were investigated. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted at each time point. In addition, Cox regression analysis was performed to evaluate the variables affecting the success rate for smoking cessation over time. Results: The smoking cessation success rate of workers with an SWESC at week 24 (90.7%) was higher than that for workers without an SWESC (60.5%). Multiple logistic regression was performed to determine the relationship between each variable and the success rates for smoking cessation at week 6, 12, and 24. SWESC was confirmed as significant (p < 0.05) variables for increased success rate for smoking cessation at all 3 time points. After adjusting for all variables, the Cox proportional hazards survival analysis showed a hazard ratio of 6.17 for SWESC (p < 0.001,; 95% confidence interval: 3.08-12.38). Conclusions: At a professional treatment smoking cessation camp, participants with an SWESC showed a significantly higher success rate for smoking cessation. Supportive workplace environment for workers' health is expected to be an important factor for smoking cessation projects as well as other health promotion projects at workplace.

Objectives: To evaluate the degree of satisfaction about a specialized treatment type smoking cessation camp conducted by a Korean medicine hospital. Methods: The subjects of this study were 112 patients who enrolled smoking cessation camp from September 2015 to December 2017 at ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ Korean medicine hospital of ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ University. Patients received Korean medical treatment, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, counseling, education, stretching, hand and foot baths, and hiking. Each patient filled in a satisfaction survey after completion of the camp. Results: Drug satisfaction of the nicotine patch was $8.0{\pm}1.9$ points, nicotine gum was $7.5{\pm}2.6$ points, Cheongpye-tang was $7.8{\pm}2.5$ points, and Bopye-tang was $7.6{\pm}2.8$ points. Acupuncture was the most favorable treatment among the 12 programs, followed by education and herbal medicine. Confidence after the camp was $8.8{\pm}1.4$ points compared to $6.6{\pm}2.4$ points before the camp. An appropriate period for the camp was 7 days (40%). Conclusions: After participating in the smoking cessation camp, most patients feel considerable satisfaction. Further study is required.

Background: Prevalence of tobacco use is higher in the rural than urban areas of India. Unlike tobacco cessation clinics located in urban areas, community-based smoking cessation intervention has the potential to reach a wider section of the community to assist in smoking cessation in the rural setting. The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a cessation intervention in rural Kerala state, India. Materials and Methods: Current daily smoking resident males in the age group 18-60 years from four community development blocks in rural Kerala were randomly allocated to intervention and control groups. The intervention group received multiple approaches in which priority was given to face-to-face interviews and telephone counselling. Initially educational materials on tobacco hazards were distributed. Further, four rounds of counselling sessions were conducted which included a group counselling with a medical camp as well as individual counselling by trained medical social workers. The control group received general awareness training on tobacco hazards along with an anti-tobacco leaflet. Self-reported smoking status was assessed after 6 and 12 months. Factors associated with tobacco cessation were estimated using binomial regression method. Results: Overall prevalence of smoking abstinence was 14.7% in the intervention and 6.8% in the control group (Relative risk: 1.85, 95% CI: 1.05, 3.25). A total of 41.3% subjects in the intervention area and 13.6% in the control area had reduced smoking by 50% or more at the end of 12 months. Lower number of cigarettes/ bidi used, low nicotine dependence and consultation with a doctor for a medical ailment were the statistically significant predictors for smoking cessation. Conclusions: Rigorous approaches for smoking cessation programmes can enhance quit rates in smoking in rural areas of India.

Background: To illustrate multiple approaches and to assess participation rates adopted for a community based smoking cessation intervention programme in rural Kerala. Materials and Methods: Resident males in the age group 18-60 years who were 'current daily smokers' from 4 randomly allocated community development blocks of rural Thiruvananthapuram district, Kerala (2 intervention and 2 control groups) were selected. Smoking status was assessed through house-to-house survey using trained volunteers. Multiple approaches included awareness on tobacco hazards during baseline survey and distribution of multicolour anti-tobacco leaflets for intervention and control groups. Further, the intervention group received a tobacco cessation booklet and four sessions of counselling which included a one-time group counselling cum medical camp, followed by proactive counselling through face-to-face (FTF) interview and mobile phone. In the second and fourth session, motivational counselling was conducted. Results: Among 928 smokers identified, smokers in intervention and control groups numbered 474 (mean age: 44.6 years, SD: 9.66 years) and 454 respectively (44.5 years, SD: 10.30 years). Among the 474 subjects, 75 (16%) had attended the group counselling cum medical camp after completion of baseline survey in the intervention group, Among the remaining subjects (n=399), 88% were contacted through FTF and mobile phone (8.5%). In the second session (4-6 weeks time period), the response rate for individual counselling was 94% (78% through FTF and 16% through mobile phone). At 3 months, 70.4% were contacted by their mobile phone and further, 19.6% through FTF (total 90%) while at 6 months (fourth session), the response rate was 74% and 16.4% for FTF and mobile phone respectively, covering 90.4% of the total subjects. Overall, in the intervention group, 97.4% of subjects were being contacted at least once and individual counselling given. Conclusion: Proactive community centred intervention programmes using multiple approaches were found to be successful to increase the participation rate for intervention.
