Perception of smoking cessation resources and practices- a cross-sectional study in Portugal

Conclusions: the Portuguese value community resources to support cessation, as well as an interdisciplinary clinical intervention. The most cost-effective and broad reach cessation resources are poorly known. Cessation brief intervention is perceived as inconsistent. There is a need for systematic and effective cessation support using community resources and those most cost-effective with the potential to provide broad reach and repeated contacts necessary to promote successful behaviour change.
