Filter by:This is a pilot sequential multiple assignment trial (SMART) to understand the optimal timing to assess response to our smoking cessation text message intervention and to measure how adding medications alone compares to adding medications and telephone coaching for those who continue to smoke. This study aims to assess the feasibility of a SMART of a proactively offered text message intervention for smokers in primary care that compares early (4 weeks) versus late (8 weeks) assessment of treatment response and the addition of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) alone or with telephone coaching for non-responders.
Brief advice combined with active referral to smoking cessation (SC) services increases quitting. We aim to strengthen the effect of combined intervention by using interactive communication technologies and nicotine replacement therapy sampling (NRT-S).
Assess the feasibility and acceptability of delivering an mHealth tobacco intervention among state quitline enrollees.
Due to the pandemic, this study was modified from a randomized clinical trial to test the feasibility, initial efficacy, and mechanisms of action of our PTSC-S intervention to a feasibility and acceptability test of our intervention when delivered via telehealth in a single group, within-subjects design.
The overall goal of this renewal is three-fold: (1) to continue to sustain and strengthen the network; (2) to conduct a group randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of a theory-based, culturally- and gender-relevant Community Health Worker intervention for Brazilian women "light smokers" that will augment the smoking cessation programs offered through the public health system; and (3) to expand our current Career Development and Research Training Program to the other two major tobacco growing states in order to develop a cadre of well-trained researchers who will continue to develop and implement gender-relevant comprehensive tobacco control strategies at all levels.
Smoking can increase the risk of complications around the time of surgery. Researchers are trying to see if a text messaging program can help smokers stay off cigarettes around the time of surgery.
The existing tobacco cessation best practice advisory (BPA) fires for providers (physicians, residents, fellows, midwives, nurse practitioners, physician assistants) during outpatient encounters when a patient is identified as a current tobacco user in the Social History section of their chart. The BPA was designed to help facilitate tobacco cessation interventions; it is part of the The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Quality Payment Program (QPP). The purpose of the project is to optimize this BPA utilization and improve patient outcomes by comparing multiple versions of the tobacco cessation BPA.
This study aims to evaluate the effects of a combined "cocktail", cessation intervention of brief advice, nicotine replacement therapy sampling and active referral (BANSAR) for smoking expectant fathers on smoking cessation outcomes
The prevalence of smoking among US adults is highest among American Indians and Alaska Native (AI/AN) persons; however, there are a lack of tobacco cessation interventions developed specific to this disparity group. Social media holds promise as a scalable intervention strategy to promote engagement in treatment and cessation outcomes for Alaska Native (AN) people. Researchers plan to develop and pilot test a culturally relevant, Facebook delivered intervention to promote smoking treatment uptake and cessation among AN smokers. The Facebook content will include a digital storytelling approach adapted from the effective Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Tips from Former Smokers educational mass media campaign. The project builds on the researcher team's longstanding tobacco control research partnership with the AN community and was informed by their understanding of cultural factors that can both impede and encourage cessation in this population. If the pilot intervention is successful, researchers will have a blueprint to conduct a large randomized controlled trial. The researchers long-term objective is to develop interventions for AN tobacco users that will ultimately reduce their risk of tobacco-caused disease and mortality.
The PROMPT Pilot Study is a feasibility mixed methods prospective cohort study following principles of community-based participatory action research. The study recruited 80 people who use drugs and followed them for 6 months while providing access to counselling, nicotine replacement therapy and peer-support in a community setting. A notable reduction in average cigarette use per day (20.5 to 9.3) and illicit substance use (18.8%) was observed at study-end. PROMPT's patient engagement model is an effective harm-reduction strategy for the growing opioid use crisis and can improve the health outcomes of marginalised at-risk populations worldwide.
