Estimates indicate that one million patients who smoke present annually in the United States for some form of surgical intervention. Smoking is a known cause of respiratory complications, hemodynamic fluctuations, and delayed wound healing. A literature search revealed a small number of available studies that address the education provided to surgical patients who smoke. Information about the effects of smoking on surgical outcomes is not routinely provided to smokers. Determining the best methods by which to provide smoking cessation counseling will help increase patients' chances for a positive surgical outcome.
据估计，在美国每年有100万吸烟患者因某种形式的手术干预前来就医。吸烟是导致呼吸并发症、血流动力学波动和伤口愈合延迟的已知原因。文献检索发现，针对吸烟手术患者所提供教育的现有研究数量较少。关于吸烟对外科手术结果影响的信息并未常规提供给吸烟者。确定提供戒烟咨询的最佳方法将有助于增加患者获得积极手术结果的机会。
