NUNES, Daniella Porfírio et al. Smoking cessation intervention in hospitalized patients with stroke. Rev. Psicol. Saúde [online]. 2021, vol.13, n.2, pp. 33-49. ISSN 2177-093X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.20435/pssa.v13i2.1096.

INTRODUCTION: Studies have shown low post-stroke smoking abstinence rates. OBJECTIVES: To describe the development and present the preliminary results of a smoking cessation intervention in stroke patients. METHOD: Based on Cognitive Social Theory. Fifteen patients were included. Smoking abstinence was analyzed 15 days after hospital discharge, through exhaled carbon monoxide assessment, and 12 months later, by telephone contact. RESULTS: Five patient booklets were developed, one for family members and one guide for the health professional. The 15-day cessation rate was 46.7% (7/15) and, after 12 months, 40% (6/15). CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated the steps for developing a smoking cessation intervention in stroke patients and showed that a theory-based and personalized intervention may favorably impact the cessation rate after discharge.
