Electronic Cigarettes


We recently had a patient smoke an “electronic cigarette” in his isolation room.  I have researched the issue and, as you can imagine, FDA is against them and the manufacturers are pro.  FDA got a recent ruling that they can regulate the device as a drug administration item and not as a tobacco item.  What is the official stance on "electronic cigarettes"?
