The piCObabyTM Smokerlyzer® is a breath carbon monoxide monitor, specifically designed for use with pregnant smokers. Intended for multi-patient use by healthcare professionals in smoking cessation programmes and research, the familiar traffic light system provides visual motivation to the mum-to-be to quit smoking whilst also providing the foetal reading both in ppm and %FCOHb.
The piCObabyTM offers an unprecedented view of the internal effects of smoking by using the traffic light results system for both the mum-to-be and the baby.
The piCObabyTM CO monitor is a valuable tool for pregnant smokers to visualise the effects that smoking is having on them and their child.
The monitor provides instant results shown in exact ppm, %COHb and %FCOHb, which makes recording and interpreting patients' results quick and easy.
With added SteriTouch® antimicrobial additives to ensure optimum infection control.
There is the familiar green, amber and red traffic light system, making CO levels instantly identifiable to patients.
D-pieces are used in conjunction with the monitor to filter out 99.9% of airborne bacteria and single-use SteriBreathTM mouthpieces for excellent, low cost infection control.
Five-year warranty for absolute peace of mind.
The program is intended to assist pharmacists with integrating a sustainable smoking cessation service into a busy community pharmacy practice. The program will review the Smokerlyzer® point of care test and the current evidence that supports the value of implementation. Strategies to overcome common barriers and workflow issues will also be discussed.
In the first part of the video Bryan leads you through the structure of the Smoking Cessation Program. In the second part Jon shares his experiences with point-of-care testing in pharmacies (INR warfarin, Home MedsCheck, bone density diagnosis, smoking cessation, heart health program, h. pylori screening).
Bryan and Jon talk about the burden and costs of smoking on society, and ways of talking to patients about their smoking habits with the goal of helping them quit using some powerful statistics. They discuss the importance of uncovering the social and genetic backgrounds of developing smoking habits that are hard to get rid of. By the end of this lecture you will also have an understanding of what a nicotine roller coaster is, and why nicotine is a special drug that develops addiction on the long run.
In this lesson you will find out more about how genomics predispose someone to develop more addictive behaviors. Bryan talks about the link between coffee and cigarette: how nicotine increases your body's rate of metabolizing caffeine by an increased CYP1A2 enzyme activity, and how it affects people who are trying to quit smoking. You will also learn about the correlation among rapid metabolization induced by smoking, genomic predispositions, commonly used medication and the development of certain types of cancer.
