简要总结
This study evaluates the effectiveness of National Tobacco Quitline Services (NTQLS) in helping smokeless tobacco users quit. It is a randomized controlled trial conducted among 264 participants at a tertiary care hospital in Odisha, comparing behavioural counselling alone with counselling plus quitline support. Participants will be followed for 24 weeks to assess abstinence, quit attempts, and relapse. The findings aim to determine whether NTQLS improves cessation outcomes and can serve as an effective, accessible public health strategy for tobacco control.
