Title: Smoking Cessation in Patients With COPD (SMOCC) in General Practice
Brief Summary: Background: Smoking cessation is the key element in the treatment of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The role of the general practice in assisting these patients with successful quitting smoking was suboptimal. Therefore we evaluated the effectiveness of two smoking cessation programs (counseling and nicotine replacement) for smokers with COPD in routine general practice, one with (CNB) and one without (CN) the combination with bupropion-SR, compared to usual care (UC) and explored the role of COPD symptoms in successful smoking cessation.

Method: RCT with 667 patients with COPD, 68 general practices were randomly allocated. The usual care group (UC) consisted of 148 patients (22 practices), the first intervention group (counseling plus nicotine replacement (CN) of 243 patients (21 practices) and the second intervention group of 276 patients (25 practices. Main outcome measure was (biochemically verified) point prevalence.
