Electronic Cigarettes--Attitudes and Use in Germany

Conclusions:
This is the first study to report on the use of e-cigarettes in Germany. Our results support those of previous studies in other populations. Further research is still needed on the potential health effects of e-cigarettes and their efficacy as a smoking cessation aid.

Implications:
The study is the first description of attitudes and use of e-cigarettes in Germany.
