E-Cigarette Usage Survey

The name of Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos of the Department of Cardiology at the Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center in Athens, may be familiar to those who follow the science of e-cigarette safety; he was the man behind a recent study which found that the use of e-cigarettes did not have a harmful effect on cardiac function.



Dr. Farsalinos has a new site, and his team is performing what they believe to be the largest-ever worldwide survey of e-cigarette users. As of today, over 8,000 people have taken the survey.

Considering how often we run up against the “there haven’t been enough studies” argument against the use of e-cigarettes, we encourage anyone who has a few minutes to spare to go add to the data Dr. Farsalinos’ team is collecting.


A couple links we found helpful when completing the survey would be this page which shows the nicotine content of many popular cigarette brands, and http://www.metric-conversions.org/ for those weight and height calculations we Americans find so difficult.
