Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This project is funded by Department of Health. We will run a quitline which provides telephone smoking cessation counseling to youth smokers aged 25 or below. After baseline counseling based on trans-theoretical model, follow-up counseling will be provided by trained counselors (i.e. nursing students or students from other healthrelated disciplines) at 1 week, 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. It is expected that the quitline can assist youth smokers to quit smoking, thus saving the healthcare cost attributed to smoking in long-term.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This project will last for 15 months (from 1st Dec 2020 to 28th Feb 2022). Prior to commencement, a month will be spent on preparation, including setting up the quitline and website, designing and printing publicity materials, connecting with secondary and post-secondary schools and training peer counsellors. We will operate the quitline for 15 months and provide telephone counselling for eligible youth smokers. Self-reported quitters at 6-month follow-up will be invited for biochemical validation.
