I believe the answer is:

nicotine patch

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one may help one stop smoking' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'top technician broadcast' is the wordplay.
'broadcast' indicates an anagram (letters scattered or cast around).
'top'+'technician'='toptechnician'
'toptechnician' is an anagram of 'NICOTINE PATCH'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for nicotine patch that I've seen is " treatment for addiction".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
