  9. US Deaths Next Hour:

  10. Prevention • Adopt tax and price measures to reduce tobacco consumption • Ban tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship • Create smoke-free work and public spaces • Put prominent health warnings on tobacco packages • Combat illicit trade in tobacco products

  11. Prevention “It is about an industry, and in particular these defendants, that survives, and profits from selling a highly addictive product which causes diseases that lead to a staggering number of deaths per year, an immeasurable amount of human suffering and economic loss, and a profound burden on our national health-care system. Defendants have known many of these facts for at least 50 years or more.” Judge Gladys Kessler, Final Order convicting the tobacco industry of racketeering and fraud in U.S. v Phillip Morris

  12. Screening Everybody’s recommending it!

  13. Lung Cancer Screening: Who is doing it? • over 100 screening programs including: • NCI Approved cancer centers across the US • Academic centers • Private non-academic hospital programs • for-profit institutions

  14. Lung Screening benefits and risks Potential Benefits • Has the potential to detect cancer earlier and save lives • find more cancers • fewer cancer deaths (20% decrease) • fewer deaths overall (6.7%) Potential harms • invasive procedures in some participants • false positives can create worry

  15. Other screening modalities Not helpful: • Chest Xray • Sputum cytology • bronchoscopy Potentially helpful • Markers in urine • Volatile organic compounds in breath • protein markers in blood • genes which demonstrate risk.

  16. Lung cancer screening vs prevention • Lung cancer is difficult to treat once it occurs. “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” B. Franklin

  17. Screening is looking for: the needle in the haystack • Number needed to treat 320 to save one life

  18. Screening is not a test but a program

  19. Screening 26,722 screened 443 $8,016,600 356 87

  20. What’s wrong with screening • Very inaccurate – 96% “positive” CTs were not lung cancer • Very expensive

  21. What’s wrong with screening • Very inaccurate – 96% “positive” CTs were not lung cancer • Very expensive • Not clear it applies to AR • Cannot be done the way it was in study • There are better alternatives

  22. Rules of Game NLST • 55-74 yo with ≥ 30 pack-years • Screen every year for 3 years • 4mm or greater POSITIVE • No change for 2y → NEG NEJM 2011

  23. California saved $86 billion in health care costs by spending $1.8 billion on tobacco control, a 50:1 return on investment over its first 15 years of funding its tobacco control program. http://www.cdc.gov/VitalSigns/AdultSmoking/index.html#StateInfo

  24. Actionable Screening • prospective approach to include • Enrollment screened patients into a database for future analysis as to efficacy • smoking cessation • pre-determined categories of suspicion for cancer • a treatment algorithm that included a group forum for discussion of difficult cases.

  25. Actionable Screening • A study of the biological characteristics of lung cancer that would have implications for screening.

  26. Treatment • Tobacco cessation • Quality of care (access) • Palliative care • Elimination of disparities (access)

  27. Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses, yearning to breath free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest tost to me,I lift my lamp beside the golden door.

  30. CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE for TREATING TOBACCO USE and DEPENDENCE • Update released May 2008 • Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Public Heath Service with: • Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality • National Heart, Lung, & Blood Institute • National Institute on Drug Abuse • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention • National Cancer Institute www.surgeongeneral.gov/tobacco/ HANDOUT

  31. WHY SHOULD CLINICIANS ADDRESS TOBACCO? • Tobacco users expect to be encouraged to quit by health professionals. • Screening for tobacco use and providing tobacco cessation counseling are positively associated with patient satisfaction (Barzilai et al., 2001). Failure to address tobacco use tacitly implies that quitting is not important. Barzilai et al. (2001). Prev Med 33:595–599.

  32. ASK about tobacco USE ADVISE tobacco users to QUIT ASSESS READINESS to make a quit attempt ASSIST with the QUIT ATTEMPT ARRANGE FOLLOW-UP care The 5 A’s: REVIEW

  33. The (DIFFICULT) DECISION to QUIT • Faced with change, most people are not ready to act. • Change is a process, not a single step. • Typically, it takes multiple attempts. HOW CAN I LIVE WITHOUT TOBACCO?

  34. HELPING PATIENTS QUIT IS a CLINICIAN’S RESPONSIBILITY TOBACCO USERS DON’T PLAN TO FAIL. MOST FAIL TO PLAN. Clinicians have a professional obligation to address tobacco use and can have an important role in helping patients plan for their quit attempts. THE DECISION TO QUIT LIES IN THE HANDS OF EACH PATIENT.

  35. ASSESSING READINESS to QUIT (cont’d) For most patients, quitting is a cyclical process, and their readiness to quit (or stay quit) will change over time. Not ready to quit Pre- Maintenance contemplation Relapse* Action Contemplation Assess readiness to quit (or to stay quit) at each patient contact. Preparation

  36. Reasons/motivation to quit (or avoid relapse) Confidence in ability to quit (or avoid relapse) Triggers for tobacco use What situations lead to temptations to use tobacco? What led to relapse in the past? Routines/situations associated with tobacco use STAGE 3: PREPARATIONDiscuss Key Issues • When drinking coffee • While driving in the car • When bored or stressed • While watching television • While at a bar with friends • After meals • During breaks at work • While on the telephone • While with specific friends or family members who use tobacco

  37. “Smoking gets rid of all my stress.” “I can’t relax without a cigarette.” There will always be stress in one’s life. There are many ways to relax without a cigarette. STAGE 3: PREPARATIONDiscuss Key Issues (cont’d) Stress-Related Tobacco Use THE MYTHS THE FACTS Smokers confuse the relief of withdrawal with the feeling of relaxation. STRESS MANAGEMENT SUGGESTIONS: Deep breathing, shifting focus, taking a break.

  38. COMPREHENSIVE COUNSELING: SUMMARY • Routinely identify tobacco users (ASK) • Strongly ADVISE patients to quit • ASSESS readiness to quit at each contact • Tailor intervention messages (ASSIST) • Be a good listener • Minimal intervention in absence of time for more intensive intervention • ARRANGE follow-up • Use the referral process, if needed

  39. BRIEF COUNSELING: ASK, ADVISE, REFER ASK about tobacco USE ADVISE tobacco users to QUIT REFER to other resources ASSIST Patient receives assistance, with follow-up counseling arranged, from other resources such as the tobacco quitline ARRANGE

  40. BRIEF COUNSELING: ASK, ADVISE, REFER (cont’d) • Brief interventions have been shown to be effective • In the absence of time or expertise: • Ask, advise, and refer to other resources, such as local group programs or the toll-free quitline1-800-QUIT-NOW This brief intervention can be achieved in less than 1 minute.
