Perioperative smoking cessation clinics | EBPOM Chicago

This piece looks at how and why you should be either setting up or running a smoking cessation clinic as part of a perioperative practice. How do you find patients for whom treatment is appropriate? How do you assess progress? How should staff be trained? What are the key indicators that treatment will be successful? This presentation was complimented with a panel discussion which will follow soon here on TopMedTalk. Please ensure you are subscribed to us on your podcatcher.
