Tobacco Cessation Practices and Attitudes Among Nurses in the Czech Republic
Original language description
Background: Tobacco is the leading cause of cancer in the Czech Republic. More than one-third of the population older than 15 years smokes, including many nurses. Most smokers want to quit, but the extent of nurses' involvement in tobacco cessation is unknown. Objective: The purposes of this study are to describe the frequency of nurses' interventions in helping smokers quit, examine their attitudes and skills, and explore the relationship of nurses' smoking status to level of intervention. Methods: A convenience sample of nurses in the Czech Republic completed a survey about their frequency of interventions according to the 5As for tobacco dependence treatment (ie, ask, advise, assess, assist, arrange), their attitudes and perceived skills, and theirsmoking status (never, former, current). Results: A total of 157 nurses completed the survey; 26% always or usually assisted patients with smoking cessation. Few (22%) reported that nurses could play an important role in helping patients
