Decision Aid Development for Cigarette Smokers Undergoing Surgery: Specific Aim 2

around surgery or quit for good. In the first specific aim, a decision aid was designed to

This second aim will test whether this decision aid improves the decisional quality compared
with standard methods used to discuss perioperative smoking.
