Abstract:
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of smoking intervention by anesthesiol-ogists in surgical patients.Methods A total of 182 male patients,aged 18-79 years,ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ,scheduled for elective noncardiovascular and nonthoracic surgery,were assessed preoperatively. Patients were randomized to either the control group or the intervention group,n =91 each.The con-trol group did not receive specific smoking cessation intervention.The intervention group received brief counseling by the anesthesiologist,leaflets on smoking cessation,including pictorial health warning labels,smoking cessation clinic’s smokers’hot line and WeChat public number.Anesthesia methods,operation time,treatment time in PACU,the rate of smoking cessation at 30 days postop-eratively,perioperative complications and smoking status at 30 days postoperatively were recorded. Results One hundred and sixty-six patients were included in the analysis finally.There was no signif-icant difference between two groups in 30 days of follow-up postoperatively.Self-reported smoking re-duction in the postoperative 30 days the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group (36.9% vs.22.0%,P <0.05).For smokers,there was a relationship between the lev-el of eCO and the smoking cessation rate,it was 83.3% in the intervention group and 40.0% in the control group (P <0.05).There was no significant difference of overall rate of combined intraopera-tive and immediate postoperative complications between two groups.Conclusion Smoking cessation intervention launched by anesthesiologists promotes 30 days of abstinence postoperatively.
