Abstract
Background: Smoking in pregnancy is the most important preventable risk factor for poor maternal and foetal health outcomes. Health providers (HPs) report that they seldom perform all the recommended care elements (Ask about smoking, Advise to quit, Assess dependence, Assist cessation, Arrange Follow-up). Interventions to improve HPs provision of care include different components such as training, audit and feedback, and reminders.
