Psychosocial interventions for supporting women to stop smoking in pregnancy

Effects of a Prenatal Lifestyle Intervention in Routine Care on Maternal Health Behaviour in the First Year Postpartum—Secondary Findings of the Cluster-Randomised GeliS Trial

“…We further observed a lower proportion of women who smoked in the IG compared to the CG during late pregnancy and the postpartum period. This is in contrast to the findings from a systematic review and meta-analysis [ 58 ]. Chamberlain et al concluded that there is uncertainty if lifestyle interventions focusing not only on smoking, but also on enhancing maternal health overall, increase the chances of smoking cessation [ 58 ].…”

The smoking rate in our cohort was lower compared to data from a German cohort on smoking rates during pregnancy (10.9%) [ 59 ], and the general female adult population (20.8%) [ 60 ].…”

Prevalence of smoking during pregnancy and associated social inequalities in developed countries over the 1995–2020 period: A systematic review

“…The association between demographic and socio‐economic factors and smoking during pregnancy has been investigated at national or regional scales. The results were consistent with those found in our study 3,15,18,19 . In the published studies, a low education level was the factor most strongly associated with smoking during pregnancy 16 .…”

Counselling for smoking cessation during pregnancy reduces tobacco-specific nitrosamine (NNAL) concentrations: A randomized controlled trial

“…Infants’ birth weight among participants who quit smoking tended to be higher (3241.2 ± 444.5 g), compared to those who continued smoking (3056.4 ± 498.8 g). The mean difference in birth weight between the infants of participants who quit smoking and the infants of those who continued smoking was 235 g. This result is consistent with previous studies, in which women who smoked during pregnancy had almost 150–250 g lower birth weight infants compared to infants of non-smokers 16 , 32 .…”
