Electronic cigarettes (ECIGs) are a relatively recent phenomenon, serving a dual role as a potential smoking-cessation tool and an alternative nicotine-delivery system. Although research has addressed the use of ECIGs in general populations, its use during pregnancy has not been studied. The authors seek to inform readers about the current evidence base regarding ECIG use in general and to describe a patient who began using ECIGs regularly during pregnancy as a smoking cessation tool. Continued research is needed to inform patients about the potential risks and benefits of ECIG use, including during pregnancy.
电子烟是一种相对较新的现象，兼具作为潜在戒烟工具和替代尼古丁输送系统的双重作用。尽管已有研究探讨了电子烟在普通人群中的使用情况，但尚未对其在孕期的使用进行研究。作者旨在向读者介绍目前关于电子烟使用的证据基础，并描述一名在孕期开始定期使用电子烟作为戒烟工具的患者。仍需持续开展研究，以便让患者了解使用电子烟的潜在风险和益处，包括在孕期使用的情况。
