Abstract

This review delves into the application and effectiveness of Very Brief Advice (VBA) for smoking cessation in Denmark's healthcare system. Despite some evidence, VBA's support remains limited, adopted by only a few hospitals and overlooked by many healthcare professionals. To enhance cessation efforts, we recommend elevating its status from optional to mandatory. Underlining VBA's significance as a referral catalyst is pivotal to ensuring its sustained influence within the broader cessation strategy.
