Smoking cessation
- The 1989 Surgeon General’s report concluded, on the basis of case-control and cohort studies, that smoking increased cardiovascular disease mortality by 50%. Hence, this is an important component of lifestyle modification.
- Goal is to achieve complete smoking cessation.
- Smoking cessation and avoidance of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke at work and home is recommended.
- Follow-up, referral to special programs, and/or pharmacotherapy (including nicotine replacement) is recommended, as is a stepwise strategy for smoking cessation (Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist, Arrange).
- The cardiovascular effects of nicotine such as increase in heart rate with small rises in blood pressure, have provoked some concerns about the use of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) in patients with coronary artery disease.
- Nicotine patches have been used successfully in heart disease patients without any adverse effects.
- Similarly, it is suggested that nicotine replacement therapy may be initiated as early as 2–3 days after acute myocardial infarction and that it may be used in all patients with stable angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmias.
