“…Moreover, in the study the counselor (SS) was adequately trained but lacked experience. Adequate training of the counselor assumed an important part of the counseling process (Carson et al, 2012). The participants were unwilling to quit the habit of tobacco because of the heavy dependence on tobacco (nicotine addiction) and relapse (Benowitz, 2010).…”

“…Rosenthal et al (2013) stated that the participants should be highly motivated and interested to achieve high quit rates. Having said that, doctors should also be highly trained in counseling methods (Carson et al, 2012). Studies have stated that lack of skills and interventional training might have been a co factor in reduced number of quit rates (Raupach et al, 2012;Venkatesh and Sinha et al, 2012;Strayer et al, 2013).…”

“…[34][35][36] However, research has shown that to access smoking cessation interventions and sustain improvements, parents must possess sufficient motivation, persistence, attention, and energy. 36 These parental characteristics may be negatively affected by chronic hardship and strain based on resource depletion, threats to basic family needs, and worry about these threats.…”

Family Hardships and Serum Cotinine in Children With Asthma

et al. 2015

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A better understanding of how poverty-related hardships affect child health could highlight remediable intervention targets. Tobacco smoke exposure may be 1 such consequence of family hardship. Our objective was to explore the relationship between family hardships and tobacco exposure, as measured by serum cotinine, a tobacco metabolite, among children hospitalized for asthma. METHODS:We prospectively enrolled a cohort of 774 children, aged 1 to 16 years, admitted for asthma or bronchodilator-responsive wheezing. The primary outcome was detectable serum cotinine. We assessed family hardships, including 11 financial and social variables, through a survey of the child's caregiver. We used logistic regression to evaluate associations between family hardship and detectable cotinine. RESULTS:We had complete study data for 675 children; 57% were African American, and 74% were enrolled in Medicaid. In total, 56% of children had detectable cotinine. More than 80% of families reported $1 hardship, and 41% reported $4 hardships. Greater numbers of hardships were associated with greater odds of having detectable cotinine. Compared with children in families with no hardships, those in families with $4 hardships had 3.7-fold (95% confidence interval, 2.0-7.0) greater odds of having detectable serum cotinine in adjusted analyses. Lower parental income and educational attainment were also independently associated with detectable serum cotinine.

“…Improving the skills of ante-natal and primary care providers for smoking cessation, through training and incentivisation, has the potential to improve Indigenous health and cessation outcomes (Carson et al 2012b;Passey et al 2013;Passey and Sanson-Fisher 2015). GPs and multidisciplinary teams have opportunities to engage with Indigenous women when confirming pregnancy, and often provide shared antenatal care for rural and remote Indigenous women.…”

Getting over the shock: taking action on Indigenous maternal smoking

Abstract.Smoking rates are slow to decline among pregnant Indigenous women. One in two pregnant Indigenous Australian women is a tobacco smoker compared with one in eight in the non-Indigenous population. The National Close the Gap strategy ambitiously aims to reduce Indigenous smoking prevalence to half by 2018, but this goal is unlikely to be achieved. Evidence is growing to better inform targeted strategies for Indigenous pregnant women based on national and international studies. It is proposed to be an appropriate time to refine translational approaches for anti-tobacco messages and cessation support in this population, rather than waiting for further empirical research before making these essential changes. Systemic barriers to Indigenous pregnant women receiving equitable primary health care have been identified, are remediable, and urgently require addressing. These barriers include: (1) lack of subsidised access to suitable oral forms of nicotine replacement therapy; (2) lack of clinician training in the complex area of management of maternal Indigenous smoking; and (3) lack of targeted health promotion programs addressing the psychosocial challenges that Indigenous women face. In the interim, translational strategies to target tobacco control and cessation in pregnant Indigenous women need to be based on current evidence.
