Effectiveness of an E-mail Tracking Intervention Among the Continued

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Objectives. To evaluate the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of clinical practice guide based intervention with two face-to-face visits and e-mail tracking compared to brief advice to obtain continued smoking abstinence at 6 and 12 months after intervention.

Methodology. simple randomized controlled multicentric trial. All smokers (N=1064) aged 18 or older that attend by any reason to the primary care center and that have an e-mail account and they checked it at least once a week will be invited to participate. The enrolled participants will be randomly divided into control (N=532) and intervention group (N=532). An intensive intervention, based on the recommendations of the clinical practice guides, that will include six contacts (2 face-to-face and 4 by e-mail) will be applied to the intervention group. Control group will receive brief advice.

The main dependent variable will be continued abstinence of tobacco consumption at six and twelve months after the beginning of the intervention which will be validated by and a carbon monoxide breathe analysis measured by a cooximeter in standard conditions. Secondary variables will include: stage change on the quitting smoking process and evaluation of the effectiveness on the reduction of the number of smoked cigarettes at six and twelve months after intervention. A descriptive analysis of all variables will be done. A multivariate analysis will be undertaken to assess differences among intervention and control group; logistic regression for dichotomic variables and lineal regression for continuous variables.

Clinical Trial Description

In preliminary phase is planned to carry out 2 descriptive sub-studies: a qualitative one, which will reflect the views of patients and physicians regarding the use of email as a smoking cessation intervention, and another smoker's profile in relation to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), which collects information on the actual use of them in smokers. The result of both will help to release data on the type of participants who would be involved in the clinical trial. ;

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.
