This study aimed to test the hypothesis that people aged 60 and older respond to assistance in stopping smoking. Using a single general practitioner visit backed up by a practice nurse, 14% of the smokers had discontinued the habit 6 months after the intervention period. The intervention group also showed some improvements in a standardized measure of breathlessness.
