Clinical Trial Summary

This trial seeks to increase access to smoking cessation services to low-income pregnant women. Smoking is associated with an increased risk of developing cancer. Smoking during pregnancy smoking is associated with an increased risk of low birth weight, a condition that is associated with neonatal, perinatal, and infant morbidity and mortality. The overall goal of this trial is to help patients make healthy choices and provide support during pregnancy and in the first few months after the birth of the baby.
