About This Podcast

Odds & ENDS is an educational podcast series created by the VISN 1 Tobacco Treatment Program to help keep clinicians informed on electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). The series covers the latest research and clinical recommendations on e-cigarettes, vaping, and other emerging nicotine products. Episodes provide overviews of ENDS components, regulations, prevalence, health risks, and considerations for tobacco cessation. The goal of this series is to prepare VA healthcare providers to address patient questions and offer guidance for evidence-based decision making on these rapidly evolving products. Continuing education is provided for VA employees in partnership with VA Northeast Consortia (VANEC) for VISNs 1, 2, 4, 5.
