Abstract

E-cigarette use among adolescents increased dramatically over the past decade. In 2020, more than 4 in 10 twelfth-grade students reported ever using an e-cigarette device. Through a previous Quality Improvement project, we increased the screening rate among our adolescent population close to 100%. However, screening coupled with education, cessation resources, and follow-up is essential in better addressing the use of e-cigarettes among adolescents. Our Adolescent/Pediatric Clinics participated in the AAP E-Cigarette and Vaping ECHO (Extension for Community Health Care Outcomes), aiming to improve the delivery of e-cigarette screening and counseling services to adolescents.
