OBJECTIVES: Describe tobacco companies' marketing strategies targeting low socioeconomic status (SES) females in the USA. METHODS: Analysis of previously secret tobacco industry documents. RESULTS: Tobacco companies focused marketing on low SES women starting in the late 1970s, including military wives, low-income inner-city minority women, 'discount-susceptible' older female smokers and less-educated young white women. Strategies included distributing discount coupons with food stamps to reach the very poor, discount offers at point-of-sale and via direct mail to keep cigarette prices low, developing new brands for low SES females and promoting luxury images to low SES African-American women. More recently, companies integrated promotional strategies targeting low-income women into marketing plans for established brands. CONCLUSIONS: Tobacco companies used numerous marketing strategies to reach low SES females in the USA for at least four decades. Strategies to counteract marketing to low SES women could include (1) counteracting price discounts and direct mail coupons that reduce the price of tobacco products, (2) instituting restrictions on point-of-sale advertising and retail display and (3) creating counteradvertising that builds resistance to psychosocial targeting of low SES women. To achieve health equity, tobacco control efforts are needed to counteract the influence of tobacco industry marketing to low-income women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

1. Identify opportunities to improve perioperative communication about goals for patients with urologic serious illness. 2. Understand the value of having both Palliative Care Specialists and Urologists involved in preoperative conversations about patient goals. A joint Urology-Palliative Care team approach to navigating patient goals is warranted in advance of surgery for patients with urologic serious illness. In coordination, Urologists and PC can offer complementary contributions to different parts of a goals of care conversations, covering both goals of care generally and developing shared understanding of risks and realistic expectations of what surgery can achieve. Care for urologic serious illness often includes surgery; preoperative shared decision making about patient goals is often inadequately implemented in surgical settings. To understand perspectives on improving perioperative communication about goals for patients facing urologic serious illness. We conducted 37 semi-structured interviews with Palliative Care Physicians (PC) (11), Urologists (13) and interdisciplinary clinicians (13) at fourteen geographically distributed Veteran Health Administration (VHA) sites. The analytic approach relied on content analysis with dual review; analysis is conducted separately by provider type and triangulated. 1) In existing pre-operative workflows: "patients are not [always] aware that we might be able to palliate their symptoms without surgery" (URO). 2) Goal of surgery is often something patients really need help understanding, e.g. "It's gonna help temporarily, but it's not gonna help long term" (PC). 3) PC is not in the position to have the part of the goal of care conversation that clarifies the goal of the surgery: "it's very hard for non-surgeon to have a robust goals of care discussion with the patient who's co-managed with surgery unless surgery is able to give you a sense of what to expect." (PC) 4) A team approach to clarifying and navigating patient goals is warranted: "how do we work together to sort of think about prognosis, how to plan ahead for care after the surgery and then setting sort of real realistic expectations and goals for after the surgery?"(PC). 5) In coordination, Urologists and PC can offer complementary contributions to different parts of a goals of care conversation: "the interventionists would better know how effective the intervention is going to be, but PC probably has much better perspective on how the patient is doing overall." (URO) Patients will benefit from a urology-PC team approach to clarifying goals of care and surgery. Shared Decision Making / Advance Care Planning / Surgical / Palliative Care [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

1. Identify time points along the perioperative continuum where PC and Urology can be better integrated. 2. Understand the importance of the perioperative period as a focus for future interventions to improve quality of care in patients facing urologic serious illness. Stakeholder interviews reveal a general overall need to create a culture change so that palliative care is integrated appropriately for patients with urologic serious illness. Many urologic serious illnesses are treated with surgical procedures, which may put patients at a further risk of diminished quality of life. To understand stakeholder perceptions on integrating perioperative Palliative Care (PC) for patients with serious urologic illness. We conducted semi-structured interviews with purposefully sampled palliative care physicians (11), urologists (13), and clinical team members (13) at eleven geographically distributed Veteran Health Administration sites. Team-based thematic analysis was conducted to consensus with a dual review in Atlas.ti. We identified one general overall theme and three themes representing needs along the perioperative continuum as opportunities for integrating PC and urology. The general overall need was to "change culture" so that PC is not a "last resort" and "ideally, we would be starting palliative [care], when [we] start curative [treatment]." Opportunity 1: Utilizing telehealth and team member role expansion when discussing diagnosis and treatment options, with urologic surgery as a potential treatment, allows for multiple conversations "so they're not rushed in 15 minutes to mentally deal with the new diagnosis of cancer." Opportunity 2: Creating a process to ensure goal of surgery conversations occur with both urologists and PC, since "urologic procedures can have complications that significantly impact quality of life," which "would require changing how our workflow is structured." Opportunity 3: During the pre-operative visits, there can be interdisciplinary input and evaluation of the patient prior to surgery, so that the patient can "have a sort of joint meeting with us and the urologist." This represented the last point in time to de-escalate and offer non-surgical options prior to surgery. The study informs future interventions to improve the quality of care by integrating palliative care with urology. Future work can build on these findings by implementing the opportunities and determining how it impacts patient outcomes.

- Abstract
Background: Innovative solutions to nursing care are needed to address nurse, health system, patient, and caregiver concerns related to nursing wellness, work flexibility and control, workforce retention and pipeline, and access to patient care. One innovative approach includes a novel health care delivery model enabling nurse-led, off-hours wound care (PocketRN) to triage emergent concerns and provide additional patient health education via telehealth., Objective: This pilot study aimed to evaluate the implementation of PocketRN from the perspective of nurses and patients., Methods: Patients and part-time or per-diem, wound care-certified and generalist nurses were recruited through the Stanford Medicine Advanced Wound Care Center in 2021 and 2022. Qualitative data included semistructured interviews with nurses and patients and clinical documentation review. Quantitative data included app use and brief end-of-interaction in-app satisfaction surveys., Results: This pilot study suggests that an app-based nursing care delivery model is acceptable, clinically appropriate, and feasible. Low technology literacy had a modest effect on initial patient adoption; this barrier was addressed with built-in outreach and by simplifying the patient experience (eg, via phone instead of video calls). This approach was acceptable for users, despite total patient enrollment and use numbers being lower than anticipated (N=49; 17/49, 35% of patients used the app at least once beyond the orientation call). We interviewed 10 patients: 7 who had used the app were satisfied with it and reported that real-time advice after hours reduced anxiety, and 3 who had not used the app after enrollment reported having other resources for health care advice and noted their perception that this tool was meant for urgent issues, which did not occur for them. Interviewed nurses (n=10) appreciated working from home, and they reported comfort with the scope of practice and added quality of care facilitated by video capabilities; there was interest in additional wound care-specific training for nonspecialized nurses. Nurses were able to provide direct patient care over the web, including the few participating nurses who were unable to perform in-person care (n=2)., Conclusions: This evaluation provides insights into the integration of technology into standard health care services, such as in-clinic wound care. Using in-system nurses with access to electronic medical records and specialized knowledge facilitated app integration and continuity of care. This care delivery model satisfied nurse desires for flexible and remote work and reduced patient anxiety, potentially reducing postoperative wound care complications. Feasibility was negatively impacted by patients' technology literacy and few language options; additional patient training, education, and language support are needed to support equitable access. Adoption was impacted by a lack of perceived need for additional care; lower-touch or higher-acuity settings with a longer wait between visits could be a better fit for this type of nurse-led care., (©Cati G Brown-Johnson, Anna Sophia Lessios, Samuel Thomas, Mirini Kim, Eri Fukaya, Siqi Wu, Samantha M R Kling, Gretchen Brown, Marcy Winget.

- Abstract
Introduction: Tracking adaptations during implementation can help assess and interpret outcomes. The framework for reporting adaptations and modifications-expanded (FRAME) provides a structured approach to characterize adaptations. We applied the FRAME across multiple health services projects, and developed an analytic approach to assess the impact of adaptations., Methods: Mixed methods analysis of research diaries from seven quality improvement (QI) and research projects during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Using the FRAME as a codebook, discrete adaptations were described and categorized. We then conducted a three-step analysis plan: (1) calculated the frequency of adaptations by FRAME categories across projects; (2) qualitatively assessed the impact of adaptations on project goals; and (3) qualitatively assessed relationships between adaptations within projects to thematically consolidate adaptations to generate more explanatory value on how adaptations influenced intervention progress and outcomes., Results: Between March and July 2020, 42 adaptations were identified across seven health services projects. The majority of adaptations related to training or evaluation (52.4%) with the goal of maintaining the feasibility (66.7%) of executing projects during the pandemic. Five FRAME constructs offered the most explanatory benefit to assess the impact of adaptations on program and evaluation goals, providing the basis for creating an analytic approach dubbed the "A-FRAME," analysis of FRAME data. Using the A-FRAME, the 42 adaptations were consolidated into 17 succinct adaptations. Two QI projects discontinued altogether. Intervention adaptations related to staffing, training, or delivery, while evaluation adaptations included design, recruitment, and data collection adjustments., Conclusions: By sifting qualitative data about adaptations into the A-FRAME, implementers and researchers can succinctly describe how adaptations affect interventions and their evaluations. The simple and concise presentation of information using the A-FRAME matrix can help implementers and evaluators account for the influence of adaptations on program outcomes., Competing Interests: The authors have no competing interests to declare., (© 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Objectives: Investigate smoking stigma among different tobacco user types., Methods: US adults (N=1,812) responded to an online survey, including non-smokers, smokeless tobacco users, exclusive smokers, and smokeless and cigarette "dual users"., Results: Dual users perceived the highest smoking stigma. Stigma was higher for smokers open to quitting by switching to smokeless. E-cigarette users (smokers) reported higher stigma than non-users. Making a past-year quit attempt was predicted by smoking stigma, and smokeless and/or e-cigarette use., Conclusions: Smoking stigma and dual use of smokeless tobacco and/or e-cigarettes with cigarettes predict quit attempts. However, smoking stigma might prevent smokers from consulting doctors and induce use of alternative tobacco products as cessation aids.

Importance: Public education campaigns in tobacco control play an important role in changing tobacco-related knowledge, attitudes and behaviors. The Oklahoma Tobacco Stops with Me campaign has been effective in changing attitudes overall and across subpopulations towards secondhand smoke risks., Objective: Investigate campaign impact on secondhand smoke policy and risk attitudes., Design: Serial cross-sectional data analyzed with univariate and multivariable models., Setting: Random-digit dialing surveys conducted in 2007 and 2015., Participants: Oklahomans 18-65 years old., Main Outcomes and Measures: 1) Support for smokefree bars; 2) risk assessment of secondhand smoke (very harmful, causes heart disease, causes sudden infant death); and 3) likelihood of protecting yourself from secondhand smoke., Results: With Tobacco Stops with Me exposure, from 2007 to 2015, Oklahomans demonstrated significant increases in: 1) supporting smokefree bars (23.7% to 55%); 2) reporting beliefs that SHS causes heart disease (58.5% to 72.6%), is very harmful (63.8% to 70.6%) and causes sudden infant death (24% to 34%); and 3) reporting they are very likely to ask someone not to smoke nearby (45% to 52%). Controlling for demographics, smokers and males showed reduced attitude change. In uncontrolled comparisons, high-school graduates faired better than non-diploma individuals, who lacked significant attitude changes., Conclusions and Relevance: Tobacco Stops with Me achieved its mission to more closely align public perception of SHS with well-documented secondhand smoke risks. Efforts to target women were particularly successful. Smokers may be resistant to messaging; closing taglines that reinstate individual choice may help to reduce resistance/reactance (e.g., adding Oklahoma Helpline contact information).
