“…It is also stressed that each country should develop the minimal capacity to provide cessation interventions by having national treatment guidelines, training physicians to provide cessation counselling, providing cessation counselling at all healthcare facilities, creating national quitlines, and possibly providing access to low cost cessation medications (Raw et al, 2010). Also emphasised is the need for international collaboration on research and capacity building for implementing, monitoring, and evaluation of cessation services (McRobbie et al, 2013).…”

Objective: This study aims to systematically review the existing literature on the current developments and impact of smoking cessation interventions targeted toward adult smokers in low and middle income countries (LMICs).Methods: Major databases were searched with the following selection criteria: (1) studies based on empirical findings that demonstrate the impact of smoking cessation interventions in LMICs; (2) studies conducted in or focused on LMICs; (3) studies targeted at the adult smoking population; (4) studies focused on smoking cessation component of tobacco control; (5) studies that reported on the capacity for smoking cessation intervention and current developments in LMICs; (6) published in peer review journals between 2003 and April, 2013; (7) studies written or transcribed in English.Results: A total of 23 articles (23 studies) were included in the review. Six studies assessed the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of smoking cessation intervention types in some LMICs. Four studies explored the reach, adoption and institutionalisation of cessation interventions. Six studies assessed physicians’ capacity to provide cessation interventions, and seven studies provided insights on current developments.Conclusion: Smoking cessation interventions are not readily available and affordable in LMICs. Extensive research is needed to determine the most cost-effective and culturally appropriate smoking cessation interventions for adult smokers in LMICs.

“…Most of the current evidence on tobacco control measures, particularly cessation interventions, comes from HICs and may not translate well to other contexts (Clinical Practice Guideline Panel, 2008;McRobbie, Raw, & Chan, 2013). Cessation guidelines from HICs may not be appropriate for some LMICs for a variety of reasons (including accessibility and cost of pharmaceutical treatment, differences in health care settings, and differences in tobacco use behaviours and products).…”

For over half a century, the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) has supported research on tobacco and health, which has contributed to reductions in tobacco-caused morbidity and mortality in the U.S. But while tobacco use has been slowly declining in most high-income nations, including the US, it has continued to increase in other parts of the globe. Of the 800 million adult men who currently smoke cigarettes, over 80% are in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), and these countries will bear an increasing share of the health and economic burden of tobacco use. At the same time, there are additional challenges to implementing tobacco control programs in LMICs, including a diversity of tobacco products, limited capacity and resources for tobacco control, and competing health priorities. While a large body of evidence has been generated around tobacco dependence treatment and other measures in high-income countries, this work is only partly applicable to many LMICs. In this paper we focus on research needs and opportunities around tobacco cessation interventions for LMICs, highlighting four areas: understanding diverse tobacco products, development of low-cost cessation interventions, integrating tobacco cessation into health systems, and understanding tobacco use behaviors across different contexts. Expanding tobacco control research and research capacity in LMICs is crucial to reducing tobacco use and cancer rates worldwide. Furthermore, research conducted in countries around the world can yield important insights for understanding tobacco use behaviors and the effectiveness of tobacco control interventions in the US.

“…Despite increase in the call numbers documented, reviews of Quitline awareness indicate that knowledge of contact numbers is not always high and question whether the current format is optimal 14 17 27. Our study examined this latter question by testing the relative effect of alternative Quitline information formats on New Zealand smokers’ perceptions, choices and projected behaviours.…”
