Abstract

Background: The prevalence of smoking within disadvantaged groups remains higher than the prevalence of smoking in the general population. However, few RCTs examining the effectiveness of smoking cessation programs have been carried out in disadvantaged groups.

Aim: This RCT aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a case-worker delivered smoking cessation intervention at increasing smoking cessation rates amongst socially disadvantaged smokers.
