Have you tried to quit smoking? Or have you tried to help somebody to quit smoking? Please share your views on how different treatments may work!

Skills / interests: Consumer (public, patient, carer) input

Happy New Year!

I am looking for 2 consumer reviewers to provide feedback on the following high-profile Cochrane review updates:

  • Antidepressants for smoking cessation - review last published in 2020
  • Different doses, durations and modes of delivery of NRT (nicotine replacement therapy) for smoking cessation - review first published in 2019

Cochrane considers a consumer, in this case, to be someone who has tried to quit smoking, or someone who knows/has helped a family member/friend to quit smoking. For consumer peer review, we will ask you to complete a short form with your feedback to ensure the review is accessible and relevant so that it will be helpful to patients and their carers/families with healthcare decision-making.

 

You are welcome to provide feedback on any aspect of the review, or you can focus your attention on the sections you feel are most relevant to consumers and stakeholders, such as Abstract, Plain Language Summary, and Conclusions. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task, that does not overburden consumer reviewers.

 

Thank you in advance for considering!
