Collaborative Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Research in the Severn Deanery
Peri-operative Smoking Cessation
Our next project will look at peri-operative smoking practice in the region.
​
The project was successfully pitched by ST3 trainee Dr Swati Gupta from a competitive field, at the STAR Annual Congress in June 2019. ​

We aimed to determine:
​
-
Current practice in pre-operative smoking cessation advice in the region
​
-
Anaesthetists current practices and beliefs
​
We aimed to:
​
-
Add evidence to ongoing issues of whether smoking cessation close to surgery may have detrimental effects on PPCs
​
​
We look forward to announcing the results presently
