Background: Female smokers have different characteristics from male smokers; thus, this study investigated the factors related to the success ofquitting smoking among female smokers.
Methods: The study sample included 1,118 female smokers enrolled in the visiting smoking cessation program of a single regional smoking cessationcenter from June 1, 2015 to December 31, 2017. Data were provided by the National Tobacco Control Center. The success of smoking cessation forsix months was confirmed through a urine cotinine test.
Results: The smoking cessation success rate was higher among those aged over 40 years compared to other age groups.
Total smoking duration (oddsratio [OR], 0.94; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89?0.98), nicotine dependence (OR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.69?0.91), and exhaled carbon monoxideconcentration (OR, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.91?1.01) were negatively correlated with the six-month success rate. Confidence in quitting smoking at firstcounseling (OR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.06?1.37) and total number of counseling sessions (OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.40?1.63) were positively correlated with thesuccess rate of quitting smoking at six months.
Conclusion: The six-month smoking cessation success of female smokers enrolled in the visiting smoking cessation program was associated with age of40 years or older, having a short smoking period, low nicotine dependence, low carbon monoxide concentration, high smoking cessationconfidence, and high number of counseling sessions.
