According to an August 26 press release from the American College of
Physicians, primary care clinicians should provide interventional
education or counseling to prevent the use of tobacco in school-aged
children and adolescents, citing recommendations from the United States
Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF).

.

The USPSTF recommends that primary care clinicians provide interventions,
including education or brief counseling, to prevent initiation of tobacco
use in school-aged children and adolescents, wrote the authors in the
recommendation statement. This recommendation applies to school-aged
children and adolescents. The USPSTF has issued a separate recommendation
statement on tobacco use counseling in adults and pregnant women.

.

To give the recommendations a higher level of visibility, the statement
and opinion piece are being published jointly in the medical journals
Annals of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. The newest statement is an
updated recommendation from the USPSTF, which in 2003 found insufficient
evidence to make such a recommendation in support of interventions for
youth tobacco prevention.

.

As smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States,
responsible for roughly 443,000 deaths each year, prevention strategies
are necessary to cut down tobacco-related deaths.
