| Summary: | 碩士 === 國防醫學院 === 公共衛生學研究所 === 102 === Evidence-based recommendations indicate that smoking is a risk factor in
various diseases and deaths. Smoking has been an important health issue for
everybody. Ministry of Health and Welfare and Ministry of National Defense
(MND), committed to promoting Tobacco Control Program, are expected to
create a “smoke-free military”.
A quasi-experimental research design was conducted on military
participants at the smoking cessation clinic of military general hospitals. The
data were collected through a self-structured questionnaire. Effectiveness of
smoking abstinence were collected by telephone follow-ups.
The effectiveness, smoking abstinence rate, and reducing cigarettes of the
intervention group are better than the control group (p<0.001). Number of
visiting significantly effected on effectiveness during the first month (p=0.022).
The intervention group thought themselves more healthy (p=0.02) and more
important in smoking abstinence (p=0.013). The improving number of visiting is
an important factor. Besides, improving motivation of smoking abstinence and
providing the corresponding strategies to deal with stressors are also important.
