Smoking Realities
Tobacco kills 1 person every 6 seconds WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic, 2008
Smokers who smoke 20 cigarettes or more/day increase their stroke risk 2-4 times CMAJ 2008;179(12 Suppl):E1-E93
There is no safe level of smoking. OMA, 2008 Jan:75(1): 22-34
Smokers have poorer functional outcomes after stroke than non-smokers.
Cerebrovascular Disease, 2006:21 (4): 260-265
Smoking Prevalence in Canada

Quebec 22% New Brunswick

Canadian Best Practice Recommendations for Stroke Care
2.1 Lifestyle & Risk Factor Management Persons at risk of stroke and patients who
have had a stroke should be assessed for vascular disease risk factors and lifestyle management issues (Diet, Sodium intake, Exercise, Weight, Smoking, and Alcohol intake)
They should receive information and counseling about possible strategies to modify their lifestyle and risk factors.
CMAJ 2008;179(12 Suppl):E1-E93 2.1
Canadian Best Practice Recommendations for Stroke Care, 2008 #2.1v
2.1.v. Smoking Smoking cessation and a smoke free
environment: nicotine replacement therapy and behavioural therapy.
For nicotine replacement therapy, nortriptyline therapy, nicotine receptor partial agonist therapy and/or behavioral therapy should be considered.
CMAJ 2008;179(12 Suppl):E1-E93 21v.
Smoking Cessation: Role of Healthcare
Health care professionals have a golden opportunity to initiate smoking cessation programs Credible Knowledgeable Supportive Resourceful Critical Incident
Smoking Cessation: Nicotine Addiction
A tenaciously addictive drug Nicotine withdrawal syndrome
irritability, anger, restlessness, impatience, difficulty concentrating,
depression, anxiety symptoms vary widely in intensity and duration
(may last several weeks or months)
Tobacco use is also conditioned behavior
The Cycle of Nicotine Addiction
Nicotine binding causes an increase in release of dopamine
Dopamine gives feelings of pleasure and calm The dopamine decrease between cigarettes leads to
withdrawal symptoms of irritability and stress The smoker craves nicotine to restore pleasure and
calmness Smokers generally titrate their smoking to achieve
maximal stimulation and avoid symptoms of withdrawal and craving
Jarvis. BMJ. 2004;328:277-279; Picciotto et al. Nicotine Tob Res. 1999;1:S121-S125.
What’s in a cigarette?
Butane (lighter fluid) Cadmium (batteries) Acetic Acid (vinegar) Methane (Sewar gas) Arsenic (poison) Carbon monoxide Hexamine (BBQ
lighter)
Methanol (rocket fuel) Paint Ammonia (toilet
cleaner) Nicotine (insecticide) Toluene (industrial
solvent) Stearic Acid (candle
wax)
Role of Environmental Stimuli in Nicotine Dependence
Play a role in reinforcing nicotine dependence Non-nicotine stimuli are important in both
motivating and maintaining smoking behavior Role of environmental vs pharmacologic stimuli in
nicotine dependence varies between men and women
Direct pharmacologic effects of nicotine are necessary but not sufficient to explain tobacco dependence; these effects must take into account the environmental/social context in which the behavior occurs

Smoking Cessation: A Comprehensive Approach
Two key components Pharmacological action of the nicotine Behavioural factors
Most effective methods of smoking cessation combine pharmacotherapy with advice and behavioural support

Smoking Cessation: Routine Clinical Practice
“Initial, effective smoking cessation counseling can be delivered as part of routine clinical practice in as little as 2 minutes.”
Andrew Pipe, MD, CM Chief, Division of Prevention and Rehabilitation, University of Ottawa Heart Institute
Brief Intervention Using the 5A’s
ASK: Identify and document tobacco use
ADVISE: In a clear, strong, personalized manner, urge smoker to quit
ASSESS: Is the smoker ready to make a quit attempt?
ASSIST: Use counselling and pharmacotherapy to help him/her quit
ARRANGE: Schedule follow-up contact Preferably within 1 week after the quit date
Fiore MC et al. JAMA 2002;288:1768-1771

If after 24 hours, cravings continue to persist, consider adding a 7mg Nicotine patch. (increase by 7mg increments at a time only).(USED WITH PERMISSION from University of Ottawa Heart
