Smoking Cessation in Patients After Coronary Angiography

Overview

OBJECTIVES The goal of this study is to evaluate the self-achieved smoking cessation supported with cytisine smoking cessation and its' on platelet aggregation and prothrombotic state in patients after coronary angiography and PCI. BACKGROUND Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor of coronary artery disease (CAD). Smoking cessation is one of the most cost-effective intervention in lifestyle. Self-reported rates of smoking cessation are reasonably low. Cytisine is promising drug in support of smoking cessation. Smoking affects various components leading to arterial thrombosis, and the effect of smoking cessation on prothrombotic state and platelet aggregation is still under investigation GOAL To assess rates of smoking cessation in patients after coronary angiography and PCI and factors influencing success in smoking cessation To assess feasibility, safety and efficacy of cytisine in smoking patients To assess effect of smoking cessation on platelet aggregation in patients treated with clopidogrel and on prothrombotic state. METHODS A prospective nonrandomized observational study of patients after coronary angiography.
