Abstract

Introduction and Aims: Research to date with electronic nicotine devices (e-cigs) for cessation and harm reduction has been con-ducted with general population smokers, not smokers from high priority groups with high smoking prevalence who find it difficult to quit smoking. This pilot trial explores the feasibility, acceptability and potential effectiveness of the use of e-cigs as smoking cessation aids when used in conjunction with one of two common quit smoking strategies: ‘abrupt cessation’ or ‘gradual reduction’.
