Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Background: People Living with HIV (PLHIV) who use tobacco experience an excess of tobacco-attributable morbidity and mortality. An analysis of tobacco use among PLHIV in 28 LMIC found that HIV positive men were 40% more likely to use tobacco than HIV negative men. For women, the increase in risk of tobacco use was 36%. As the use of, and adherence to, anti-retroviral therapy (ART) increases, PLHIV who use tobacco become at higher risk for a range of diseases caused or aggravated by tobacco use, such as cancer, including lung, head and neck, cervical and anal cancers, hypertension and heart disease, diabetes, and lung diseases. In addition, PLHIV who use tobacco are at an increased risk of pneumonia, tuberculosis and other infections. There is paucity of studies on cessation in Africa and few cessation services in Kenya. This study will evaluate the implementation of cross cutting national recommendations on Tobacco use cessation among PLHIV.
Broad Objectives: The primary objective is to compare the effectiveness of a tobacco use cessation intervention focusing on breadth (brief intervention) or depth (intensive intervention) in supporting Kenyans living with HIV to quit tobacco use. |
