4 Summary This quarterly report presents provisional results from the monitoring of the NHS Stop Smoking Services (NHS SSS) in England during the period 1 April 2013 to 31 December It includes information on the number of people setting a quit date and the number who successfully quit at the 4 week follow-up. It also presents an in-depth analyses of the key measures of the service including pregnant women; breakdowns by ethnic group; socioeconomic classification as well as by intervention type and setting and type of pharmacotherapy received and regional analyses at Region and Local Authority (LA) levels. On 1 April 2013 responsibility for commissioning NHS Stop Smoking Services transferred from Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) to Local Authorities (LAs). Due to transitional reasons City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council has not submitted data for Quarters 1, 2 and 3. Derby City Council (Unitary) has not submitted data for quarter 3. Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and North Tyneside Council have submitted incomplete data for Quarter 3. Figures for Bournemouth Borough Council (Unitary) also include data for Borough of Poole Council (Unitary) in Quarter 1. Manchester City Council are still working to resolve a data quality issue and these data are also excluded from this report. A number of organisations have been unable to provide financial data for Quarters 1, 2 and 3 (please see Data Quality Statement for further information.) Therefore, some figures in this report are under reported and caution should be exercised if attempting comparisons with previous years data and across providers. These figures are provisional and it is hoped they will be revised throughout the year. As the data are at present incomplete, time series data have not been updated and comparisons with previous years are also not attempted. As the finance data are incomplete the cost per quitter are also not presented. Final figures for 2013/14 will be included in the end of year report, expected to be published in August Copyright 2014, Health and Social Care Information Centre. All rights reserved. 4

5 Key Facts 1 Between April 2013 and December ,354 people set a quit date through NHS Stop Smoking Services. At the 4 week follow-up 203,883 people had successfully quit 2 (based on self-report), 52% of those setting a quit date. 71% of successful quitters 2 had their results confirmed by Carbon Monoxide (CO) verification 3. Of those setting a quit date, success 2 increased with age, from 39% of those aged under 18, to 59% of those aged 60 and over. Of the 14,101 pregnant women who set a quit date, 6,604 successfully quit 2 (47%). Of these 57% had their results confirmed by CO verification. The majority of those setting a quit date 63% received Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) only. Compared to 26% who received Varenicline (Champix) only and 1% who received Bupropion (Zyban) only. 5% of people setting a quit date did not receive any pharmacotherapy. Of those who used Varenicline only, 61% successfully quit, compared with 57% who received Bupropion only, and 48% who received NRT only. 60% of people who did not receive any type of pharmacotherapy successfully quit 2,4. Among the nine Regions, Yorkshire and Humber reported the highest proportion of successful quitters 2 (56%), whilst the North East reported the lowest success rate (46%). Of the 148 Local Authorities (LAs) who submitted data Peterborough City Council reported the highest proportion of successful quitters 2 (79%), whilst Middlesbrough Council (Unitary) reported the lowest success rate (33%). 1 As based on those organisations that returned data. 2 A client is counted as a self-reported 4-week quitter if when assessed 4 weeks after the designated quit date, they declare that they have not smoked, even a single puff on a cigarette, in the past two weeks. 3 Carbon Monoxide (CO) validation measures the level of carbon monoxide in the bloodstream and provides an indication of the level of use of tobacco: it is a motivational tool for clients as well as validation of their smoking status. CO validation should be attempted on all clients who self-report as having successfully quit at the 4- week follow-up, except those who were followed up by telephone. 4 These data should not be used to assess or compare the clinical effectiveness of the various pharmacotherapies as they reflect only the results obtained through the NHS Stop Smoking Services, and are not based on clinical trials. A trained stop smoking advisor discusses and agrees the treatment option with each client. Copyright 2014, Health and Social Care Information Centre. All rights reserved. 5
