Popis: | We aimed to assess pharmacy students' self-efficacy to provide cessation counseling for commercial cigarette and hookah tobacco use.A cross-sectional study including PharmD students at a College of Pharmacy was conducted in Spring 2014. Confidence in counseling and perception of knowledge were self-rated and based on the Ask-Advise-Assess-Assist-Arrange follow-up (5A's) model and general tobacco cessation counseling skills. Comparisons were made between cigarettes and hookahs and by program level using t-tests, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, analyses of variance, and Tukey-Kramer tests.Overall, 82% and 16% of the students, respectively, reported receiving training on cigarette smoking and hookah tobacco use cessation. Students were moderately confident in their ability to counsel. Compared to hookah tobacco use cessation counseling, students were more confident in their general counseling skills and ability to counsel on cigarette smoking cessation using the 5A's (p0.001 in each case). Students perceived themselves to be more knowledgeable about cigarette smoking cessation than about hookah tobacco use cessation. Almost half of the students (42.0%) thought hookah tobacco was less harmful than traditional cigarettes.Pharmacy students need further training to address hookah and other alternative tobacco products to support patients' cessation needs, decrease risks for tobacco-related morbidity and mortality, and increase medication effectiveness. |
