简介：亚洲移民到美国的吸烟率高于美国-出生的亚洲人然而，很少有项目可以帮助这些移民戒烟，而且人们对他们在现实世界中的有效性知之甚少。疾病控制和预防中心资助了亚洲吸烟者戒烟热线，为全国的中国，韩国和越南移民提供服务。方法：从2012年8月至2019年7月，亚洲吸烟者戒烟热线招募了14,073名中国、韩国和越南吸烟者。将服务利用率和戒烟结果与早期试验（2004-2008年进行）进行比较，该试验证明了亚洲语言电话咨询方案的有效性。数据分析于2019年进行。结果：亚洲吸烟者戒烟热线的参与者来自所有50个州和哥伦比亚特区。主要的转介来源是亚洲语言报纸（37.2%），家人和朋友（16.4%），医疗保健提供者（11.9%）和广播（11.9%）。总体而言，37.6%的人没有保险，38.8%的人患有慢性疾病，15.4%的人患有精神疾病。与早期试验的参与者相比，Quitline参与者接受的咨询次数减少了1次（3.8 vs 4.9，p
Introduction: Asian immigrants to the U.S. smoke at higher rates than U.S.-born Asians. However, few programs exist to help these immigrants quit and little is known about their real-world effectiveness. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funded the Asian Smokers' Quitline to serve Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese immigrants nationwide. This study examines service utilization and outcomes from the first 7 years of the program.Methods: From August 2012 to July 2019, the Asian Smokers' Quitline enrolled 14,073 Chinese-, Korean-, and Vietnamese-speaking smokers. Service utilization rates and cessation outcomes were compared with those of an earlier trial (conducted 2004-2008) that demonstrated the efficacy of an Asian-language telephone counseling protocol. Data were analyzed in 2019.Results: Asian Smokers' Quitline participants came from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The main referral sources were Asian-language newspapers (37.2%), family and friends (16.4%), healthcare providers (11.9%), and radio (11.9%). Overall, 37.6% were uninsured, 38.8% had chronic health conditions, and 15.4% had mental health conditions. Compared with participants in the earlier trial, Quitline participants received 1 fewer counseling session (3.8 vs 4.9, p
