Outline of Presentation Overview Previous Research: Oregon WIC Outcomes and Conclusions Overview MISS Project MISS Progress to Date

Negative Outcomes From Prenatal Smoking Low birthweight (20%) Preterm Birth (8%) Perinatal Death (5%) SIDS Respiratory Illnesses Decreased lung function * CT Orleans et al (2000)

Previous Projects: SOS I, II & III ( Donatelle*, Prows*, Hudson, Champeau) 3-4 Pronged Approaches Positive incentives (vouchers) to participants alone or participants and partners for biochemically confirmed quits Social support/partners (bolstered and natural) Community participation Biomarker feedback

Contingency Management (Rewards) Theory Drug abuse is a form of operant behavior that is maintained in part by the reinforcing effects of the drug (Higgins 1996, 1997) Non-drug reinforcer should decrease drug use (Roll et al 1996, Higgins 1997) Voucher incentives provided when drug-free (Silverman et al 1996, Higgins 1997)

Measures/Biochemical Confirmation (MISS) Utilize variety of measures/collection methods Follow Evidence Based Recommendations Values for quit: Saliva Cotinine (GCMS)  30 ng/ml CO Expired air  05 ppm

Summary of SOS-I (RWJF–SFF: I) Study Tailored Education /Advice Choose Partner Woman Incentives / Month Quit % SOS – I RCT Cx 108 Tx 112 YES - $50./$25. - $ Donatelle*, Prows*, Champeau, Hudson (2000)

Summary of SOS-II (RWJF) Study Tailored Education / Advice Choose Partner Woman Incentives / Month Quit % SOS-II Pilot N = 62YES $50.28 Donatelle, Prows, Hudson

Summary of SOS – III (OHD) Study Tailored Education / Advice Choose Partner Woman Incentives / Month Feed- back Quit % SOS – III RCT Cx 60 Tx 1 67 Tx 2 59 YES - YES - $25. - YES Donatelle, Prows, Hudson

SOS I, II & III: Quit Rates at 8 months Gestation (%) I-C I-Tx II III Cx III Tx1 III Tx2

Conclusions from SOS I, II & III Best Practice-4 A’s are promising in WIC ? Would this be effective in private practice/Medicaid Incentives (Contingency Management) seem to be effective ? What is the threshold for peak behavioral outcome Biomarker feedback Partner Support …? Utilized various biochemical measures of quit - may be an important component of the intervention itself

Maternal Interventions to Stop Smoking (MISS) Project Purpose: To significantly increase smoking cessation behavior among predominantly low-income, high risk, pregnant women 9 Oregon private practice prenatal clinics Quit Confirmation (CO and Salivary Cotinine) RCT: 3 group design Best Practice 5 A’s Best Practice 5 A’s plus $25/month voucher Best Practice 5 A’s plus $75/month voucher

Eligibility Criteria Pregnant smoker (smoked even a puff in the last seven days)  15 years of age or older < 29 weeks gestation at first OB visit English speaker/reader

MISS Objectives Determine whether incentives are more effective than Best Practice in motivating pregnant smokers to quit To assess whether a higher incentive will result in a greater level of smoking cessation than a lower level incentive

Secondary Project Objectives Determine: The integrity/consistency of the intervention as delivered in private practice managed care clinics utilizing process measures from both women and providers. The importance of selected psychosocial/environmental factors as predictors of smoking cessation/reduction in this population. The cost-per-quit implications for an incentives model provided in a private practice managed care clinic.

MISS Methods Screen all pregnant patients at 1 st prenatal visit Determine eligibility Obtain informed consent – Randomized by patient Provider 5A’s A Pregnant Woman’s Guide to Quit Smoking Importance of quitting during pregnancy Local cessation resource guide

MISS Methods Continued Incentives to Treatment Group Quitters Follow monthly through 8 months gestation Postpartum telephone assessments of quitters with salivary collection from nonsmokers

MISS RCT: Light Smokers (<10) and Heavy Smokers at Baseline by R Group (n=293)

Lessons Learned as of Today! Intervention dependent on fast turn-around for reinforcement, difficult to find a lab able to comply at any cost Although Providers are interested in smoking cessation during pregnancy and say it is a priority – they report TIME pressures and demands Continued clinic monitoring & support/staff trainings/booster sessions a MUST…
