Results:
Patients in the study were encouraged to use the "ENDS" whenever the desire arose instead of smoking a cigarette. Daily use and behavior was recorded during the study and findings with a 30 day follow-up with patients showed 17% were abstinent from smoking, 51% planned continued use, and "average cigarette consumption decreased from 15.6 per person to 7.6 over the study period". The study stated "use is feasible and well-accepted in surgical patients."
