The mean CO levels in the intervention group showed a significant decrease at the three-month evaluation (9.14ppm, p<0.001) and six month evaluation (6.74ppm, p<0.001) when compared to the baseline (10.44 ppm).

| description |
Persistent motivation is essential for smokers to quit smoking. Therefore, peer
motivation approach was adopted via a module in a smoking cessation program
comprising 23 pages of guidance with regards to the transtheoretical model to
be used in motivation sessions.
This study involved 324 male smoker trainees at selected Ministry of Health
Malaysia training institution. The peer motivation module was evaluated using a
single-blind cluster randomisation parallel controlled trial design with three times
evaluations; at baseline, three and six months after the intervention. The
questionnaire used in this study was adopted from URICA DELTA 2004.
Meanwhile, the Global Adult Tobacco Survey 2011 (GATS) was utilised to further
examine the intervention in terms of knowledge, attitude, motivation, carbon
monoxide and the number of cigarettes in subjects after three and six months.
Results demonstrated that the intervention and control groups have significant
differences in carbon monoxide (CO) levels at three and six months of evaluation
data (p = 0.001). The mean CO levels in the intervention group showed a
significant decrease at the three-month evaluation (9.14ppm, p<0.001) and six month
evaluation (6.74ppm, p<0.001) when compared to the baseline (10.44
ppm). Overall data on knowledge showed that the mean value for the
intervention group at baseline (10.87) had significantly increased to 12.38
(p<0.001) at three-month and 13.88 (p<0.001) at six-month evaluation. Similarly,
the mean attitude score was observed to increase in the intervention group to
10.19(p<0.001) at three months and 10.59 (p<0.001) at six months. Data on
motivation hadreduced from 1.43 at baseline to 1.15 (p>0.05) at three months
and 1.08 (p>0.05) at six months. Meanwhile, data on the number of cigarettes
showed a 9.93 mean value in the interventiongroup at baseline and decreased
to 6.19 (p<0.001) at three months and 3.48 (p<0.001) at six months.
The peer support approach effectively reduced the CO level among male smoker
trainees in Allied Health Institutes, Malaysia, showing its great potential to be
implemented in all training institutes. This study found that good knowledge,
favourable attitudes and good motivation were key drivers of a smoker’s success
in quitting smoking. |
