Tobacco use continues to be the most prevalent cause of preventable morbidity and mortality in the United States, causing more than 430,000 deaths each year, or 1 in every 5 deaths. In addition, many health care providers employed in critical care settings deal with patients who have experienced a near-death event that has led them to consider smoking cessation. The smoking cessation rate 1 year after a myocardial infarction is approximately 70% in those patients who receive a smoking cessation intervention. Theory-based smoking cessation interventions have been found to be effective. The purpose of this article is to present the transtheoretical model as basis for developing a hospital-based smoking cessation intervention. In addition, symptom management options will be discussed.
