A primary care physician is preparing to implement a structured behavioral intervention for a patient who smokes heavily. According to the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) guidelines for tobacco cessation, arrange the steps of the standard behavioral counseling framework in the correct chronological sequence, from the initial step to the final step.
- 1Ask: Systematically identify tobacco use status at every patient visit.
- 2Advise: Strongly urge the patient to quit using clear, personalized, and unambiguous language.
- 3Assess: Determine the patient's willingness to make a quit attempt at this time.
- 4Assist: Aid the patient in quitting by providing pharmacotherapy and behavioral support.
- 5Arrange: Schedule follow-up contact to occur shortly after the target quit date.
Cevap
The correct chronological sequence is Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist, and Arrange.
The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends the '5 A's' behavioral counseling framework for tobacco cessation and other health behaviors. The sequence logically flows from identification (Ask), to providing a professional medical recommendation (Advise), to gauging the patient's stage of change (Assess), to providing tangible interventions for those ready to quit (Assist), and finally ensuring continuity of care (Arrange).
