{ "pk": 16185, "title": "A Prospective, Randomized Trial in The Emergency Department Of Suggestive Audio-Therapy Under Deep Sedation for Smoking Cessation", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Objectives: In a sample of patients undergoing procedural deep sedation in the emergency department (ED), we conducted a prospective, randomized, single-blinded trial of audio-therapy for smoking cessation. Methods: We asked subjects about their smoking, including desire to quit (0-10 numerical scale) and number of cigarettes smoked per day. Subjects were randomized to either a control tape (music alone) or a tape with repeated smoking-cessation messages over music. Tapes were started with first doses of sedation and stopped with patient arousal. Telephone follow-up occurred between two weeks and three months to assess the number of cigarettes smoked per day. Study endpoints were self-reported complete cessation and decrease of half or more in total cigarettes smoked per day. Results: One hundred eleven patients were enrolled in the study, 54 to intervention and 57 to control. Mean desire to quit was 7.15 ± 2.6 and mean cigarettes per day was 17.5 ± 12.1. We successfully contacted 69 (62%) patients. Twenty-seven percent of intervention and 26% of control patients quit (mean difference = 1%; 95% CI: –22.0% to 18.8%). Thirty-seven percent of intervention and 51% of control patients decreased smoking by half or more (mean difference = 14.6%; 95% CI: –8.7% to 35.6%). Conclusion: Suggestive audio-therapy delivered during deep sedation in the ED did not significantly decrease self-reported smoking behavior.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Smoking Cessation" }, { "word": "audio-therapy" }, { "word": "hypnosis" }, { "word": "emergency department" }, { "word": "preventive care" }, { "word": "sedation" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0zr2s5zq", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Robert", "middle_name": "M", "last_name": "Rodriguez", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "California San Francisco, San Francisco General Hospital", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Opal", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Taylor", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Alameda County Medical Center", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Sushma", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Shah", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Alameda County Medical Center", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Susan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Urstein", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Alameda County Medical Center", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2007-05-08T07:00:00Z", "date_accepted": "2007-05-08T07:00:00Z", "date_published": "2007-08-01T07:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/16185/galley/8116/download/" } ] }
