Smoking remains one of the leading preventable causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide and is strongly associated with chronic respiratory diseases, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and premature death. Physicians play a central role in tobacco control through the delivery of smoking cessation counseling, and even brief physician advice has been shown to significantly increase smoking quit rates. The evidence-based 5A's model (Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist, and Arrange) is widely recommended as the standard framework for smoking cessation counseling.
