Enlisting "Aunties" to Support Indigenous Pregnant Women to Stop Smoking: Feasibility Study Results
Conclusions:
Aunties are well-placed to find pregnant women and provide cessation support and referral in a way consistent with traditional Māori knowledge and practices. This study suggests such an intervention could increase quit attempts and increase use of effective cessation methods. A more robust study is warranted to develop an enhanced Aunties intervention.
