Objectives: Smoking cessation is an important factor for prevention of coronary artery disease. This study examined the extent of smoking cessation intention and the related factors among men with coronary artery disease, to aid in determining intervention strategies for smoking cessation. Methods: Data for 836 male current smokers with coronary artery disease living in a community were collected from the 2013 Community Health Survey in Korea. The association between the extent of smoking cessation intention and related factors was examined using a cross-sectional study design. Univariate analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis were used. Results: In the univariate analysis, young age, high education level, non-manual occupation, lower frequency and less quantity of the cigarettes, physical activity, continuous smoking cessation recommendations from acquaintances, and recent exposure to public advertising regarding smoking cessation were significantly associated with the presence of smoking cessation intention. In the logistic regression analysis, low frequent cigarette smoking (odds ratio [OR], 4.53; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.23-9.23), continuous smoking cessation recommendations from acquaintances (OR, 3.07; 95% CI, 1.71-5.49), and recent exposure to public advertising regarding smoking cessation (OR, 2.33; 95% CI, 1.07-5.09) were significantly associated with smoking cessation intention. Conclusions: It is necessary to understand the smoking cessation intention for the management of patients with coronary artery disease and to provide a more active intervention using regular recommendations from acquaintances and persistent public advertising. Moreover, demographic factors such as age, education level, and occupation, as well as smokingrelated behaviors and community support should be considered while developing a smoking cessation program.
