The group-randomized trial (by village) included 788 poor smokers in 18 villages. Participants were assigned to one of three intervention groups : counseling only, nicotine patches only, and a combination of both. 47 people dropped out soon after the interventions began. Quit rates varied across the intervention groups, and were significantly higher for the two groups that received counseling. Whether or not the counseling groups received nicotine patches made little difference to outcomes. The 12-month continuous abstinence rates were 17 percent for the counseling only group, 15 percent for the counseling plus NRT group, and 7 percent for the group that received nicotine patches only. The results suggest that cessation support programs could be successful and cost effective in Indonesia, and achieve comparable results to similar efforts in America, Canada, Australia, the UK and Europe. 2013-06-05T15:51:30Z 2013-06-05T15:51:30Z 2004-10 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2004/10/6065477/new-ways-helping-poor-smokers-quit-central-java-indonesia http://hdl.handle.net/10986/13779 English en_US HNP Discussion Paper; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Working Paper Publications & Research East Asia and Pacific Indonesia
