Introduction

Smoking is a chronic addictive disease1 that must be managed by appropriately trained health professionals. In this respect, the training of future doctors must facilitate the acquisition of both theoretical knowledge about the prevention and treatment of smoking, and the practical skills that must be developed to help smokers quit.2,3

Some progress has been made, especially in the theoretical teaching of the treatment of smoking, but despite this, medical school training is still very poor. This is clearly the situation in both the Anglosphere and Ibero-American medical communities,4–9 but studies have shown that students who receive good theoretical and practical education in this area during their medical training provide better and more effective care in their subsequent professional practice.10–12

In view of these premises, a group of smoking experts from the major societies in the field of pulmonology and thoracic surgery in the Iberian Peninsula and Ibero-America (Latin American Thoracic Association [ALAT], Brazilian Society of Pulmonology and Phthisology [PSBPT], Spanish Society of Pulmonology and Thoracic Surgery [SEPAR], and the Portuguese Society of Pulmonology [SPP]) have produced a consensus document that defines the minimal teaching requirements for medical students in this area. It is important to note that this group of experts comprises representatives from more than 20 Latin American countries and 2 from the Iberian Peninsula. The impact of its recommendations could therefore benefit a total population of more than 400 million people.

In 2006, the SEPAR Smoking Division made recommendations on the teaching of smoking cessation in Spanish medical schools.13 The document published here is based on those guidelines, although it contains important updates and developments. It defines the educational objectives, and the knowledge and skills that students should acquire, as well as the specific issues that must be covered in each smoking-related topic. In addition, it specifies the minimum time that should be devoted to classroom teaching of each theoretical topic (presentation and discussion), to complementary practical classes, and to self-learning by the student. The document also places special emphasis on the student as the linchpin of the training and learning process.

The paper address the entire spectrum of the knowledge of smoking cessation, i.e., epidemiology, the neurophysiological basis of nicotine dependence, factors associated with the initiation and maintenance of tobacco use, diseases associated with smoking, diagnosis, minimal intervention, non-pharmacological therapeutic measures, pharmacological treatment, and prevention.2,8–12,14–17 Throughout the document, certain periods of classroom learning are proposed for the study of each of these topics, adding up to a total of 120 min. However, teaching institutions in each of the countries of the experts who authored this document dedicate different amounts of time to the face-to-face teaching of this discipline. This proposal should therefore be adapted according to each country’s needs. Moreover, the legal and regulatory requirements that are, logically, specific to each country and even each region have not been addressed in any depth.

Methodology

The following methodology was used for the preparation of the document. Our starting point was the body of scientific papers addressing the teaching of smoking cessation published by the different scientific societies involved in the preparation of this document.4,8,9,13 A systematic search of the biomedical literature was then performed in MEDLINE, using the following keywords: teaching smoking cessation for medical students, teaching smoking cessation, teaching smoking cessation for future physicians, medical education in tobacco cessation, medical education on smoking, tobacco medical school curriculum. This search retrieved a total of 311 articles that was reduced to 98 after those related to the teaching-learning of smoking cessation in medical schools were selected. After selecting only randomized, controlled, longitudinal or descriptive studies, this number fell to 12. These articles,2,3,5–7,10–12,14–17 together with scientific papers from the scientific societies on the teaching of smoking cessation,4,8,9,13 were reviewed in depth for the preparation of this article.

The first draft of this manuscript was circulated among the different co-authors in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America, who reviewed both the overall document and the specific topics that they had been assigned, as mentioned above. Their comments were included in a second version of the manuscript, which was re-circulated among the co-authors, who submitted their new contributions. A third version of the manuscript was then sent to external reviewers who were all experts in both the specific subject area and medical education methodology and had extensive experience in medical schools. Their suggestions and comments were incorporated into the final version of the proposal.

The objectives, competencies, and theoretical and practical teaching content are discussed below. Table 1 shows the time that should be dedicated to theoretical presentations, acquisition of practical skills, and self-learning by the student to achieve adequate training in each of the subjects specified.

Pharmacological treatmentEducational objectives and associated competencies

To acquire conceptual, procedural, and practical skills in the treatment of smoking, students must achieve sufficient theoretical knowledge to be able to:

  • 1

    Understand the need to treat smokers who want to quit with effective medications.

  • 2

    Select medications that will help smokers quit. Understand their galenic formulations, mechanisms of action, indications, efficacy, dosage, contraindications, and potential adverse effects.

A period of 2 h dedicated to the acquisition of practical skills in the pharmacological treatment of smoking will be sufficient to complete the teaching objectives and achieve the competencies associated with this subject.

PreventionEducational objectives and associated competencies

To acquire conceptual and practical skills in the treatment of smoking, students must achieve sufficient theoretical knowledge of:

  • 1

    The special features of smoking prevention.

  • 2

    The different types of prevention. Prevention programs (information campaigns, educational programs, and community programs).

    Theoretical basis for prevention campaigns in educational and healthcare centers and in the general working environment. Smoking prevention policies that are being implemented in the Iberian Peninsula and in Ibero-America.

  • 4

    Countering advertising and socioeconomic arguments and allegations of harm reduction with ‘responsible tobacco consumption’, and the use of electronic devices (electronic cigarettes and heat-not-burn devices), water pipes, and roll-up cigarettes.

These objectives and competencies should be shared and supplemented with those of courses and modules in Prevention and Public Health.

Teaching content

Table 3 shows the teaching contents of this section. A minimum of 10 min of classroom time is suggested to address this teaching area, supplemented by 30 min of self-learning by the student.

Table 3.

Academic plan

Learning smoking cessation skills can take different forms depending on the local curricula in each country and each university faculty. The preferred option would be to include most of the contents in the study of respiratory diseases and secondarily in cardiovascular diseases, and partly in other subjects or modules, such as Preventive Medicine, Epidemiology, Toxicology and/or Psychology/Psychiatry. However, another possibility would to include smoking cessation training in clinical rotations or internships during the last few years of the medical studies or, as a last option, in the form of an elective subject.

Evaluation of learning

This element is an intrinsic part of the educational process and provides a guarantee that competencies have been acquired in line with the objectives. The proposal includes a multifactor evaluation that will be conducted at the end of the various learning periods, as applicable in each center and in line with national requirements. The aim is to ascertain the acquisition of both focal and contextual knowledge, the work performed throughout the course, and the effective learning of practical aspects. The final mark, on a scale of 0–10, will derive from:

  • A multiple-choice test (suggested format 25 questions), accounting for 5 points of the total final grade.

  • Test consisting of short integrated questions (suggested 5-question format), which will be assigned 3 more points.

At the completion of each of these two tests on acquired knowledge, the answers will be returned to the student as they are an integral part of their learning process.

Attendance at all practical classes will be essential to access this third section:

  • Practical examination of skills in simulated situations. Contribution to the final mark: 2 points.

Minimum teaching requirements

These will be highly dependent on the distribution of educational topics among the different smoking-related subjects, which may differ widely among the different countries. In principle, a permanent professor (the equivalent of a university professor in Spain or Portugal), specialized in the area of smoking (preferably a respiratory medicine specialist), assisted by at least 2 associate part-time professors, plus minor contributions from teaching professionals specializing in Preventive Medicine, Epidemiology, Pharmacology and/or Psychology/Psychiatry.

Furthermore, the methodology for teaching all facets of the treatment of smoking will undergo quality control by specialized technical staff affiliated to the offices of the educational center (faculty or medical school) and overall university authorities, as required by law in most countries in Latin America and Spain. The elements of smoking cessation teaching should also be subject to regular evaluations by the applicable quality agencies, as occurs in other disciplines.

Conclusions

This document presents the results of the consensus reached by different experts from the respiratory medical societies in the Latin American community and the Iberian Peninsula specifying the educational objectives and competencies (knowledge and skills) and specific contents and the time that medical schools in this geographical area should dedicate to the teaching of the treatment of smoking, one of the most important social and health scourges in both the developed and the developing world.
