Stress Clinical Trial - Online Automated Self-Hypnosis Program

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

After developing professional quality materials (audio) for an affordable automated self-hypnosis intervention program for facilitating smoking cessation, stress and pain reduction, researchers aim to gain qualitative reviews of this program, and test its initial feasibility and effects on smoking cessation and reduction in pain and stress. In addition, this study seeks to determine whether higher hypnotizability, as measured by the Hypnotic Induction Profile (assessed at baseline), is a moderator of improved outcome in these conditions.

Clinical Trial Description

The investigators are interested in recruiting individuals who report that they smoke cigarettes daily and are motivated to make a serious attempt at quitting, and individuals who report experiencing pain or stress, who are willing to try to use the hypnosis intervention and provide feedback regarding their experience with the intervention. The original intervention is an interactive hypnosis tool, developed by Reveri Health, utilizing periodic questions and answers to personalize the session progression and emulate the conversational nature of an in-person session designed based upon decades of clinical hypnosis research and experience at the Stanford Center on Stress and Health. The intervention is delivered through the Amazon Alexa platform's beta testing tool. Participants will be provided with the Alexa Dot device, which is sold by Amazon and widely used by consumers. Later on, research participants will have the option of using an Alexa-supported smartphone device without the Alexa Dot speaker. Those enrolled later in the study will instead be offered the use of the interactive app also developed by Reveri (www.reveri.com) independent of the Alexa platform. What will be specific to this pilot is the hypnosis training approach, including the interactive nature of the program. The structure and the content of the hypnosis training program will be the same across the 3 mentioned modes of administration. The user interface for the app is the main difference. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
