关于移动的应用程序在帮助戒烟方面的有效性或其自动收集戒烟结果数据的有效性,我们知之甚少。我们对SF 28(SF 28是应用程序的名称,SmokeFree 28的缩写)进行了初步评估-这是一款旨在帮助吸烟者戒烟28天的应用程序。2012年8月至2013年8月期间,将社会人口统计学特征、吸烟史、登录次数和每次登录时的戒烟情况等数据上传至SF 28的服务器。如果用户年龄在16岁或以上,在注册时吸烟,已经设定了戒烟日期,并且在戒烟日期或之后至少使用过一次应用程序,则包括在内。他们的特征与英国试图戒烟的吸烟者代表性样本的数据进行了比较。记录戒烟28天的用户的百分比进行了比较,估计值为15%的独立戒烟。相关性进行了评估记录的禁欲28天和完善的禁欲预测。共有1170名用户符合入选标准。与英国试图戒烟的吸烟者相比,他们的消费量更高,更年轻,更可能是女性,并且从事非体力劳动而不是体力劳动。总共有18.9%(95% CI 16.7-21.1)的患者戒烟28天或更长时间。平均登录次数为8.5(SD 9.0)。记录戒烟28天或更长时间的比例在年龄较大的非体力劳动者和使用戒烟药物的人中较高。从移动的应用程序SF 28记录的28天戒烟率表明,它可能有助于一些吸烟者戒烟。通过随机试验进行进一步评价似乎是必要的。
Little is known about the effectiveness of mobile apps in aiding smoking cessation or their validity for automated collection of data on smoking cessation outcomes. We conducted a preliminary evaluation of SF28 (SF28 is the name of the app, short for SmokeFree28)—an app aimed at helping smokers to be smoke-free for 28 days. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, smoking history, number of logins, and abstinence at each login were uploaded to a server from SF28 between August 2012 and August 2013. Users were included if they were aged 16 years or over, smoked cigarettes at the time of registration, had set a quit date, and used the app at least once on or after their quit date. Their characteristics were compared with data from a representative sample of smokers trying to stop smoking in England. The percentage of users recording 28 days of abstinence was compared with a value of 15% estimated for unaided quitting. Correlations were assessed between recorded abstinence for 28 days and well-established abstinence predictors. A total of 1170 users met the inclusion criteria. Compared with smokers trying to quit in England, they had higher consumption, and were younger, more likely to be female, and had a non-manual rather than manual occupation. In total, 18.9% (95% CI 16.7-21.1) were recorded as being abstinent from smoking for 28 days or longer. The mean number of logins was 8.5 (SD 9.0). The proportion recording abstinence for 28 days or longer was higher in users who were older, in a non-manual occupation, and in those using a smoking cessation medication. The recorded 28-day abstinence rates from the mobile app, SF28, suggest that it may help some smokers to stop smoking. Further evaluation by means of a randomized trial appears to be warranted.
