Scientific titleRandomised controlled trial for evaluating a brief counselling intervention on physical activity and smoking cessation to smoking women undergoing to the National Health System Cervical Cancer Screening Program (NHS-CCS-Prog) in Tuscany (Florence area), Piedmont (Turin), Emilia-Romagna (Cesena), and Lombardy (Mantua) regions
Study acronymSPRINT Study
Study objectives1. To verify whether the smoking cessation counselling intervention delivered to women randomly assigned to the "smoking" intervention arm, could increase the one-year cessation rate, in comparison to that recorded in women randomly assigned to the control arm
2. To verify whether the counselling interventions on smoking cessation and physical activity delivered to women randomly assigned to the "smoking and physical activity" intervention arm, could increase the one-year cessation rate, in comparison to that recorded in women randomly assigned to the control arm, or to the "smoking" intervention arm
Ethics approval(s)Ethics Committee of the Local Health Authority of Florence, Italy, approved on the 5th May 2009
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSmoking cessation in adults (women)
InterventionThe smoking cessation intervention in the "smoking" and in the "smoking and physical activity" arms is tailored according to the DiClemente-Prochaska stage of change on smoking behaviour. The stage of motivational change of each participating woman is obtained from the study questionnaire that participants have to fill in while waiting for the Pap test. The counselling intervention corresponds to the first two phases of the brief intervention for smoking cessation ("Ask" and "Advice"). It takes about 2 - 3 minutes.

The physical activity intervention in the "smoking and physical activity" arm is tailored according to the DiClemente-Prochaska stage of change regarding physical activity. The stage of motivational change of each participating woman is obtained from the study questionnaire, that participants have to fill in while waiting for the Pap test. The counselling on physical activity is a brief intervention, and takes about 4 - 5 minutes.

The smoking cessation and physical activity interventions are delivered by trained midwives during the Pap-test examination, that takes about 15 - 20 minutes per attending woman.

Participating women have also to fill in an informed consent attached to the study questionnaire they have to fill in while waiting for the Pap test.

A self-help booklet on physical activity and smoking cessation is provided to all participants to the study.

A telephone follow-up of all participants is scheduled after six months and one year from the intervention, in order to evaluate how many women quit smoking after the intervention.
