Breathing treatment is the term that I use quite frequently when the patient states she denies any tobacco use but yellow fingernails and clothing saturated with nauseating old cigarette smoke can most often give us a more accurate history than the patient is willing to offer. In the ED date can't go outside but every now and then someone will sneak outside for their breathing treatment because it just couldn't wait any longer but previously refused any type of non-smoking intervention such as patches or gum
