Long-term outcomes from repeated smoking cessation assistance in routine primary care.
This study assessed the importance of primary care support for smokers trying to quit. This retrospective, observational cohort study followed over 33,000 patients at six diverse health systems over 4 years. Long-term quit (LTQ) status (longer than 365 days) was measured, and it was determined that frequent visits (more than 75% of visits) had almost 3 times the success than patients who visited less than 25%.
