Course overview
In 2006, vaping entered commercialization, marketed as a smoking cessation aid and a healthier option due to its purported absence of nicotine, which was in salt form rather than free. As vaping devices became increasingly prevalent, concerns arose regarding their safety, efficacy, and potential health risks. This course examines vaping, exploring its context, physiological effects, prevalence, clinical implications, treatment options, and nursing considerations.
