Smoking is a serious health problem for people with mental illness and especially for bipolar disorder patients (Rüther et al., 2014). It is necessary to explore the possibilities of brief intervention in the context of community care that may act on the level of motivation for change.Assess the effectiveness of the 3 A's intervention (Ask, Advise and Assess) in a sample of euthymic bipolar patients after 12months.Two hundred and twenty patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder (according DSM-5 criteria) that were in the euthymic phase (defined as less than 7 points in YMRS and 10 points in HDRS) and attended the community care centers of three provinces of Andalusia (Spain). Patients who consumed in the last month qualified for the level of motivation for change (measured by URICA scale); before and after conducting a brief intervention of no more than 30minutes in total, divided in three contacts during a month, two face to face and one phone contact. We evaluated the results in the smokers at baseline after 12months of the intervention.After 12months of follow-up, a 7.1% was abstinent, a 35.7% tried to abandon the consume at least once during the follow-up an average 8days (2–30). A 14.3% discontinued the study.This is the first paper that evaluate the 3 A's intervention in bipolar disorder with 12months of follow-up. The results of abstinence after were similar to those obtained in patients with schozophrenia using the same intervention (5%) (Dixon et al., 2009).
