Effectiveness of a Managed Care Smoking Cessation Program in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Based on Nicotine Replacement as a Treatment and a Cognitive-behavioral Approach


The cognitive behavioural approach group : This group will receive an inclusion visit at
first, then two "cigaret exposures cessions" during hospitalisation. Thereafter-one week
after he's out- the patient will come for 5 follow up visits consisting in the specific
technique of cigaret exposure and nicotinic treatment adjustment. Then the last visit, at
six months, will tell us if the patient is an effective non smoker or not; We'll be also
collecting psychological and medical informations (such as the treatment, IMC,
cardiovascular check up and psychological tests). The control group : This group is managed
as "usual" : the nurse gives very rapid recommendations to the patients concerning smoking
cessation. Nicotinic substitutes are proposed to the patients but the patient must find them
by itself.
