Smoking Cessation Study

Smoking Cessation | Arthropathy

The primary outcome of this study is to determine the true incidence of smokers among patients undergoing joint replacement and secondly, what percent are able to quit smoking before surgery under a structured cessation program with carbon monoxide breath testing. The investigators hypothesize that self-reported smoking status is underreported and that routine carbon monoxide breath testing will improve abstinence rates at the time of surgery.
