First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a special alert in the electronic health record can help doctors prescribe nicotine replacement therapy (like patches or gum) to hospitalized smokers. About 220 patients and their resident doctors will take part. The goal is to see if the alert increases prescribing during the hospital stay and at discharge, and if it leads to more referrals to stop-smoking clinics.
