The authors concluded that smoking cessation is beneficial at any time relative to lung cancer surgery and that subjects who continued to smoke experience a poorer postoperative quality of life.…”

“…Quality of life in relation to smoking status was evaluated after lung cancer surgery by Balduyck et al 31 In this study, 70 subjects with non-small-cell lung cancer underwent lobectomy or pneumonectomy. Quality of life was prospectively recorded at baseline (1 d before surgery) and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality-of-life questionnaires QLQ-C30 and QLQ-LC13 (lung cancer-specific).…”

“…Head and neck cancer patients are more motivated by short term benefits such as returning to normal life and reclaiming function than, for example, reducing risk of recurrence 47 therefore HCP must be taught the short-term benefits to quality of life of smoking cessation in cancer patients. Evidence from lung cancer patients shows quitters experience a more rapid return to emotional, cognitive or social functioning after surgery 48 and an overall improvement in quality of life 49 . Education on the benefits of smoking cessation to cancer patients has been recommended by two of the studies included in this review and a focus on the short-term benefits may further facilitate delivery of cessation 30,41 .…”
