Brief Summary

Smoking cessation assistance is one of the major issues in prevention policies because the prevalence of smoking remains high in France. With its numerous consultations, an emergency service seems to be an interesting place for setting up and helping with weaning, despite specific working conditions. The study, which is a pilot, is interested in the feasibility and efficacy of the implementation of a STIR (Screening, Treatment Intervention and Referral) protocol, which screening, brief intervention, nicotine replacement therapy and referral to a specialist in order to help the patients in smoking cessation.
