Effect of smoking cessation intervention on results of acute fracture surgery: a randomized controlled trial
(2010) In Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery: American Volume 92(6). p.1335-1342- Abstract
- Tobacco smoking is a major health and economic concern and is also known to have a significant negative effect on surgical outcomes. The benefits of a smoking cessation intervention prior to elective orthopaedic surgery have been evaluated previously. Our aim was to assess whether a smoking cessation program, initiated during the acute hospitalization period and carried out for six weeks, could reduce the number of complications following emergency surgical treatment of fractures.
