What Do They Say About It?
“The cigarette should be conceived not as a
 product, but as a package. The product is
 nicotine…Think of the cigarette pack as a
 storage container for a day’s supply of
 nicotine… Think of a puff of smoke as the
 vehicle of nicotine and the cigarette the most
 optimized dispenser of smoke.”

               William Dunn,
               Tobacco Researcher , Philip Morris,
 1972
What Are the Facts?
• An estimated, 20.8% of all adults (45.3 million people)
  smoke cigarettes in the United States.
• Cigarette smoking estimates by age are as follows: 18–24
  years (23.9%), 25–44 years (23.5%), 45–64 years (21.8%),
  and 65 years or older (10.2%).4
• Cigarette smoking is more common among men (23.9%)
  than women (18.0%).4
• Prevalence of cigarette smoking is highest among
  American Indians/Alaska Natives (32.4%), followed by
  (non-Hispanic) Blacks (23.0%), (non-Hispanic) Whites
  (21.9%), Hispanics (15.2%), and Asians [excluding Native
  Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders] (10.4%).4

Nicotine - What is it?
• Nicotiana tabacum
• First cultivated in the Americas as early as 6000 BC.
• Originally touted for its “medicinal properties”.
• C10H14N2 is a naturally occurring liquid alkaloid and
  makes up about 5% of the actual tobacco plant, by weight.
• Readily diffused into the body through skin, lungs, and
  mucous membranes.
• Half-life of Nicotine is 60 minutes.
Nicotine - The Perfect Drug!
•   Appetite Suppressant
•   Anti-Depressant
•   Stimulant
•   Relaxant
•   Improves Learning
•   Increases Memory
•   Painkiller
Is It Addiction?
Psychological: Continued and compulsive use of
a product, without regard for it’s effects on health
or life.
Physiological: Anything that turns on the reward
pathway in the brain. Stimulation of this neural
circuitry makes a person feel good and thus will do
it again and again to “get that feeling”.
Tolerance: The development of tolerance to the
product which results in needing more and more in
order to illicit the same effect.
Why Smoking Cessation?
• 438,000 smoking related deaths annually in the US.
• 2100 smoking related deaths annually in the New Mexico.
• 1 in 5 or 20% of all deaths in the US are attributable to
  cigarette smoking.
• Leading cause of cancer death in both men and women, it
  surpassed breast cancer in 1987 as the # 1 cancer killer
  of women!
• 66% ALL myocardial infarctions are related to cigarette
  smoking.
• 75 Billion dollars in Direct annual medical related costs.
• 92 Billion dollars in lost productivity.
Because They Want To Quit!
• Among current U.S. adult smokers,
  – 70% report that they want to quit completely.
  – In 2006, an estimated 19.2 million (44.2%) adult
    smokers had stopped smoking for at least 1 day during
    the preceding 12 months because they were trying to
    quit.
  – More than 54% of current high school cigarette
    smokers in the United States tried to quit smoking
    within the preceding year.
Nicotine and the Brain
Can We Make a Difference?
“If you treat an individual as he is, he will
  stay as he is, but if you treat him as if he
  were what he ought to be and could be, he
  will become what he ought to be and could
  be”
            Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Components of Change
• Importance of change

• Confidence in the ability to change

• Readiness to change


“Motivation is fundamental to change”
Motivational Interviewing
• Collaboration (Not Confrontation):
  – Working in partnership and consultation with
    the patient
• Evocation (Not Education):
  – Listening more than talking
• Autonomy (Not Authority):
  – Being respectful and honoring the patients
    autonomy, resourcefulness, and ability to
    choose
Contemplation Ladder
• 10 = Taking action to quit NOW.
• 8 = Starting to think about how to quit.

• 5 = Think that I should quit, unsure
      if I am ready too.
• 2 = Will consider quitting someday.
• 0 = Absolutely NO thoughts of
      quitting.
Motivation to Change?
• DARN
 D = DESIRE to Change
 A = ABILITY to Change
 R = REASON to Change
 N = NEED to Change
Explore Their Ambivalence!
• What is AMBIVALENCE?
   Webster’s defines ambivalence as;
      “Simultaneous conflicting feelings”
  – “I want to quit smoking and I don’t want to quit
    smoking”
  – “I know that my smoking effects my asthma, but I
    really love to smoke”!
  – DEVELOP DISCREPANCY – Differentiate between
    the patient’s present state and their desired goals.
  – Without discrepancy there is no ambivalence and if
    there is no ambivalence, there is no potential for
    change!
  – You can’t have Motivational Interviewing without
    ambivalence.
The 5 A’s          Ask             Tobacco use as
               Smoking status
                                   a vital sign

                                  clear, personalized




                 Assess           Weigh pros and cons
            Willingness to quit   Assess importance, readiness,
                                  and confidence
                                  Assess st age of readiness to quit



                 Assist
              Aid in quitting     Offer help: e.g.
                                   - refer to counseling, quitline
                                   - analyze past attempt s
                                   - develop quit plan,
                                   - provide pharmacotherapy
               Arrange
                Follow-up

                                                                       37
The 5 A’s
• ASK - Does EVERY patient get asked about their
  smoking history?
• ADVISE – Do we actively advise our smoking
  patient’s to quit?
• ASSESS – Do we incorporate smoking cessation
  into our assessment and provide opportunities for
  our patient to pursue quitting options.
• ASSIST – Do we incorporate smoking cessation
  into the treatment / care plan?
• ARRANGE – Do we provide the patient with the
  necessary resources to be successful after
  discharge? (community resources, relapse plan,
  support)
