Abstract

Introduction Antenatal clinical guidelines recommend antenatal care providers routinely assess the smoking status of all pregnant women at the first antenatal visit and, for women who are current smokers, provide cessation support at the first and all subsequent visits. This study aimed to assess women's receipt of comprehensive guideline-recommended care for smoking during pregnancy and the maternal and service characteristics associated with such care. Aims and Methods A telephone survey was conducted with women who were recently pregnant and received antenatal care from public maternity services in one Australian local health district. Results Of the 514 participants, 9% were smokers when they found out they were pregnant. Of these, 47% continued smoking until giving birth. Almost all participants (96%) were asked about their smoking status at their first antenatal visit. Among pregnant smokers, 76% were asked about their smoking at subsequent visits, 73% were advised to quit, 62% were provided with information or advice to assist in quitting, 24% were offered nicotine replacement therapy, and 38% were offered a referral to Quitline. A third of maternal smokers reported receiving all elements of guideline-recommended care. No associations were found between maternal and service characteristics and receipt of care for smoking. Conclusions Guideline recommended routine assessment and care for smoking in pregnancy may be less than optimal, particularly for smoking cessation interventions with strong evidence of effectiveness—NRT and quitlines. Identification of barriers and implementation of strategies to increase the offer and uptake of these services by women is required. Implications This study is the first to examine pregnant women's reported receipt of comprehensive guideline-recommended care for maternal smoking. The findings indicate that a significant proportion of pregnant women attending public maternity services are not receiving comprehensive care and that many are not being offered evidence-based interventions to assist them to quit. Barriers to comprehensive care delivery need to be identified and addressed if the potential for smoking interventions delivered in this setting to impact smoking rates in pregnancy is to be realized.

Abstract

Introduction: E‐cigarette use has rapidly increased amongst young people in Australia, however the prevalence of use amongst pregnant people is not known. The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence of e‐cigarette use and dual use of e‐cigarettes and tobacco cigarettes, characteristics associated with use and reasons for use amongst a sample of pregnant Australian people attending public antenatal clinics. Methods: A cross‐sectional survey was conducted with 4024 pregnant people attending antenatal appointments, between July 2021 and December 2022, in one local health district in New South Wales, Australia. Main outcome measures were current use of e‐cigarettes, dual use with tobacco cigarettes, participant characteristics associated with use and reasons for use. Results: 1.24% of pregnant people used e‐cigarettes, 34% of these were dual smokers. Being a current smoker (OR 39.49; 95% CI 9.99–156.21) or ex‐smoker (OR 29.86; 95% CI 8.75–101.95) were associated with e‐cigarette use. Quitting smoking was the most reported reason for use (52%). Discussion and Conclusions: This study is the first to report on the prevalence of e‐cigarette use amongst pregnant people in Australia. We found that a small proportion of pregnant people use e‐cigarettes and that many are dual users or ex‐smokers. E‐cigarette use and rates of dual use in pregnancy in Australia appear lower than internationally, however they are similarly being used as a smoking‐cessation aid by many. As regulatory environments relating to e‐cigarette access change in Australia, large‐scale studies are required to continue to monitor e‐cigarette use and dual use in pregnancy.

Abstract

Background: Chronic diseases are a considerable burden to health systems, communities, and patients. Much of this burden, however, could be prevented if interventions effective in reducing chronic disease risks were routinely implemented. Aims: The aim of this paper is to discuss the role of public health agencies in preventing chronic disease through the application of learning health system (LHS) approaches to improve the implementation of evidence‐based interventions. Materials and Methods: We draw on the literature and our experience operating a local LHS in Australia that has achieved rapid improvements in the implementation of chronic disease prevention interventions. Results: The proposed LHS framework has been adapted to be both implementation and chronic disease prevention focused. The framework describes both broad improvement processes, and the infrastructure and other support (pillars) recommended to support its core functions. Conclusion: The framework serves as a basis for further exploration of the potentially transformative role LHS's may have in addressing the chronic disease health crisis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
