In the U.S., almost half of all smokers try to quit each year. Yet two thirds of those who try to quit do so without the benefit of effective treatments that are now available. To optimize the contribution to public health of treatment, a consumer-centered approach is needed. This involves understanding and addressing smokers' needs and concerns regarding treatment, and communicating effectively with smokers about the nature and value of available treatments. Consumer-oriented treatment offerings would also recognize the diversity of smokers and match it with diverse approaches to quitting. Increasing use of treatment is important to increasing quit rates.
在美国，几乎有一半的烟民每年都试图戒烟。然而，尝试戒烟的人中，有三分之二没有受益于现在可用的有效治疗方法。为了使治疗方法对公众健康的贡献最大化，需要采用以消费者为中心的方法。这涉及到了解和解决吸烟者对治疗的需求和关注点，并与吸烟者就可用治疗方法的性质和价值进行有效沟通。以消费者为导向的治疗方案还将认识到吸烟者的多样性，并将其与不同的戒烟方法相匹配。增加治疗的使用对于提高戒烟率非常重要。
