Vaping was first commercialized in 2006, introduced as a tool to help individuals quit smoking and promoted as a safer alternative, claiming to lack traditional nicotine by using a salt form rather than the freebase form. As the use of vaping devices became more widespread, questions regarding their safety, effectiveness, and health implications began to emerge. This course explores vaping in detail, addressing its background, physiological effects, prevalence, clinical impact, treatment strategies, and important nursing considerations.
