Factors determining intention to quit tobacco: exploring patient responses visiting public health facilities in India

Conclusions: This study is amongst the first in India to explore factors associated with the "intention to quit" and "setting a quit date" among patients visiting public health facilities. Our findings suggest that socio-economic and individual-level factors are important factors depicting intention to quit and setting a quit date. We recommend the need for well-defined studies to understand the long term effects of factors influencing tobacco cessation for patients visiting public health facilities in India.
