Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Nursing
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Smoking cessation protocols are crucial in cardiac care.
  • Assessing nurse adherence is vital for protocol effectiveness.
  • The Attitude, Social influence, and Self-efficacy (ASE) model provides a framework for understanding behavioral intentions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess cardiac nurses' intentions and motives for continuing to use a smoking cessation protocol.
  • To identify factors influencing nurses' sustained use of smoking cessation interventions.
  • To inform strategies for enhancing the implementation of smoking cessation protocols in cardiology settings.

Main Methods:

  • A study was conducted in the cardiology wards of 5 hospitals.
  • Eighty-five nurses working in these cardiology wards participated.

  • Nurses' intentions and motives for continuing protocol use were measured.

    • Main Results:

    • Increased perceived simplicity and advantages of the protocol correlated with higher intentions to continue its use.
    • Perceived social influences and self-efficacy did not significantly predict intentions to continue.
    • Attitude towards the protocol mediated the influence of experience and nurses' own smoking behavior.

    Conclusions:

    • Nurses' intentions to continue using the smoking cessation protocol are primarily influenced by its perceived simplicity and advantages.
    • To improve adherence, nurses need to be convinced of the protocol's benefits and user-friendliness.
    • Future interventions should focus on enhancing the perceived value and ease of use of smoking cessation protocols for cardiac nurses.
