Smoking prevention and cessation interventions for cancer survivors.
OBJECTIVE
To provide a systematic review of smoking prevention and cessation interventions that have been conducted with cancer survivors.


METHODS
Published research studies and government reports.


CONCLUSIONS
Although few interventions have been developed to improve smoking prevention and cessation rates in cancer survivors, existing studies suggest that it is possible to decrease tobacco use in this high-risk population.


CONCLUSIONS
Oncology nurses are in a unique position to build on the current literature to address cancer survivors' tobacco use as part of clinical care.
