Description | This research study investigates the incidence and outcomes of e-cigarette use in pregnant patients at Brody School of Medicine through a retrospective analysis of medical records and a prospective survey. The need for this research is evidenced by the lack of knowledge in this topic area as seen through the duration of a concise literature review entailing the history, contents, FDA concerns, addictive properties, and the comparison of cigarettes versus e-cigarettes. Through data analysis, plausible correlations between the usage of e-cigarettes and pregnancy outcomes will be detailed. These findings will lead to greater awareness of complications due to e-cigarettes in the medical community which is especially important in the nicotine-dependent Eastern North Carolina area. | |
