“…Reviews of workplace interventions for smoking cessation have concluded that, although they are likely to yield only a modest impact on smoking prevalence owing to low participation rates, they can be effective in supporting individual smokers to quit. 185,179 Graham et al 176 report results from an internet-based workplace smoking cessation intervention delivered to IBM employees in the USA in 2003. During online enrolment for the company's health-care benefits programme, employees were asked about smoking status.…”

HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeThe Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' . The HTA programme is needs led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of project...

“…58 Such resources could include tobacco-dependence treatments for pregnant women including behavioral counseling and pharmaceutical interventions. Finally, other structural factors associated with segregation may play a role in health behaviors including the implementation of tobacco control regulations, [64][65][66][67][68] targeted marketing of tobacco products, 29,51,[69][70][71] the presence of urban environmental stressors, 72,73 and community cohesion. 66,73,74 An important result in this study is our finding that the association between segregation and smoking was not linear as others have assumed.…”

Associations Between Residential Segregation and Smoking During Pregnancy Among Urban African-American Women

et al. 2007

Approximately 10% of African-American women smoke during pregnancy compared to 16% of White women. While relatively low, the prevalence of smoking during pregnancy among African-American women exceeds the Healthy People 2010 goal of 1%. In the current study, we address gaps in extant research by focusing on associations between racial/ethnic residential segregation and smoking during pregnancy among urban African-American women. We linked measures of segregation to birth certificates and data from the 2000 census in a sample of US-born AfricanAmerican women (n=403,842) living in 216 large US Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs). Logistic regression models with standard errors adjusted for multiple individual observations within MSAs were used to examine associations between segregation and smoking during pregnancy and to control for important sociodemographic confounders. In all models, a u-shaped relationship was observed. Both low segregation and high segregation were associated with higher odds of smoking during pregnancy when compared to moderate segregation. We speculate that low segregation reflects a contagion process, whereby salutary minority group norms are weakened by exposure to the more harmful behavioral norms of the majority population. High segregation may reflect structural attributes associated with smoking such as less stringent tobacco control policies, exposure to urban stressors, targeted marketing of tobacco products, or limited access to treatment for tobacco dependence. A better understanding of both deleterious and protective contextual influences on smoking during pregnancy could help to inform interventions designed to meet Healthy People 2010 target goals.

“…2 Smoke-free workplace policies targeting smoking cessation have been introduced in a number of settings. 3 Some have led to moderate decreases in staff smoking rates and cigarette consumption by employees who continue to smoke. 4 A systematic review of 26 studies of smoke-free workplaces showed that totally smoke-free workplace policies had approximately twice the effect on reducing staff smoking rates (3.8% reduction) as workplace policies that allowed smoking in some areas other than work areas.…”

Aim: To evaluate changes in staff smoking rates following the implementation of Smoke Free Health Care, an innovative, changemanagement process that introduced a smoke-free workplace policy in the North Coast Area Health Service of NSW. Methods: Survey questionnaires were sent to all staff before and after the introduction of the policy. Return rates were 17.3% (690/ 3988) in 1999 and 25.4% (2012/7921) in 2007. Chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to determine differences. Results: Staff smoking rates decreased significantly from 22.3% to 11.8% (po0.0001). Smoking rates in 1999 were not significantly different to the state population's (22.3% and 24.1%, p ¼ 0.3), but were significantly different in 2007 (11.8% and 20.1%, po0.0001). Over a quarter (27.6%) of staff who smoked when implementation began quit smoking; more than twice the rate before implementation (12%, po0.0001). Conclusion: These changes in staff smoking rates indicate the effectiveness of a comprehensive change-management approach to implementing smoke-free workplace policy.
