Phone Enabled Implementation of Cessation Support
University of Florida
1,500 participants
Mar 6, 2024
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The tobacco use burden in Lebanon is exceptionally high: 35% of adults are current cigarette smokers and 39% are current waterpipe smokers. Although the World Health Organization endorses evidence-based interventions for population-level tobacco dependence treatment, recommended treatments are not integrated as a routine part of primary care in Lebanon, as is the case in other low-resource settings. The objective of this proposal is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of promising multi-component interventions for implementing evidence-based cessation treatment in Lebanon's national system of primary health care centers.
