Arm Label
group education
conventional smoking cessation management
Arm Description
The investigators will provide experimental groups with group education of smoking cessation, including lectures in groups of 50 to 100 people and panel discussion in groups of 5 to 10 people.
The investigators will provide control groups with conventional smoking cessation management, including regular follow-up of smoking status and giving advice of smoking cessation.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
change of clinic systolic blood pressure from baseline at the sixth month
Secondary Outcome Measures
Cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, stroke,myocardial infarction)
change of clinical blood pressure and home blood pressure from baseline
Hypertension control rate
Biochemical smoking cessation rate
CO≤6 ppm
Self-reported 7-days smoking cessation rate
Self-reported long-term smoking cessation rate
Participants hadn't smoked for at least one month.
Self-reported average number of cigarettes smoked per day
Relapse rate
Mini-Mental State Examination score
The cognitive function of participants will be assessed by MMSE. The score of MMSE ranges from 0 (worse) to 30 (better).
FEV1-Pulmonary functions
Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) is the volume of air exhaled in the first second during forced exhalation after maximum inspiration.
PEF-Pulmonary functions
Peak expiratory flow (PEF), the maximal flow that can be exhaled when blowing out at a steady rate.
FVC-Pulmonary functions
Forced vital capacity (FVC), is the maximum amount of air that can be exhaled when blowing out as fast as possible.
Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence score
The score of FTND ranges from 0 to 10. Participants with higher scores have higher degree of tobacco dependence and are less likely to maintain the status of smoking cessation.
Carbon monoxide concentration breathed
Adverse events, including nicotine withdrawal symptoms and other adverse events.
Nicotine withdrawal symptoms were quantified using the Minnesota Tobacco Withdrawal Scale (MNWS).

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Smoking elderly males with stage 1 and 2 hypertension who currently smoked at least one cigarette per day and were willing to quit smoke will be invited to this cluster randomized, controlled, interventional, open clinical trial. The investigators will provide participants with group education of smoking cessation and their blood pressure measured at clinic at the sixth month is the primary endpoint. The investigators aim to explore how group education of smoking cessation effects smoking cessation, hypertension control and cardiovascular events.

Arm Title
group education
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
The investigators will provide experimental groups with group education of smoking cessation, including lectures in groups of 50 to 100 people and panel discussion in groups of 5 to 10 people.
Arm Title
conventional smoking cessation management
Arm Type
Other
Arm Description
The investigators will provide control groups with conventional smoking cessation management, including regular follow-up of smoking status and giving advice of smoking cessation.
Intervention Type
Behavioral
Intervention Name(s)
group education
Intervention Description
Group education is one of strategies and behavioural interventions of smoking cessation. Lectures, group meeting for mutual support, discussion of coping skills and suggestions for prevention relapse can help smokers quit smoking by providing support and encouragement from people in same condition.
