Filter by:Study Participants: In our study, we focus on smokers who self-report a "current smoking" status or smoking cessation less than 6 months. This trial is a sub-trial of "Impact of Multi-Component Interventions on a High-Risk COPD population" (Protocol ID: CAMS&PUMC-IEC-2024-040). All smokers in this trial are either from the high-risk COPD population (defined by COPD-SQ score≥16) . Intervention: For study participants in the intervention arm, we will ask them to finish an online COPD-SQ questionnaire with notification of his or her COPD high risk. For those whose score of COPD-SQ ≥ 16, we will provide a face-to-face survey, simple physical examination, pulmonary function tests, and provide a multi-component intervention at baseline. For smokers in the intervention arm, we provide a digital health intervention program, NicQuit, to whom could familiarly use intelligent mobile phones, and health education for all smokers. We also provide community-based spirometry pulmonary function test (PFT) and education to smokers. If smokers whose post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC<0.7, they will be spirometry-defined COPD patients and will be encouraged to seek treatment and medication to the superior hospitals. Additionally, we provide (1) another digital health intervention programs to smokers with mental health issues; (2) CBT-based health education for study participants with abnormal BMI; (3) active recruitment into National Essential Public Health Program in China for those with abnormal blood pressure and blood glucose. Intensive follow-ups will be conducted at month 3 (telephone interview), month 6 (face-to-face with full steps of physical examination), and month 12. Comparison: Those who are assigned in the control arm, we will ask them to finish the same COPD-SQ online questionnaire with notification of his or her COPD high risk status and a face-to-face survey. No physical examinations, community-based pulmonary function tests will be given. Outcomes: The primary outcomes are self-reported average number of cigarettes consumed per day, smoking dependence index, and CO measurement.
The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of ED initiated NRT on tobacco cessation point abstinence rates as reported by patients at 2 weeks and 1 month post randomization, and continued abstinence rates at 3 months compared to standard of care therapy.
Cigarette smoking in the U.S. is highest among low income and Medicaid insured adults, and unfortunately, low-income smokers are even less likely to attempt to quit, less likely to use evidence-based treatments, and thus less likely to be successful. Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), which generally provide healthcare services to low income and Medicaid insured patients, are more likely to serve individuals who use tobacco and are required to report tobacco use screening rates and their delivery of cessation interventions. Thus, FQHCs are an ideal community-partner to reach low-income smokers, particularly smokers who are not currently seeking treatment. To address this gap, the investigators developed a pharmacist-delivered smoking cessation intervention to help facilitate nicotine replacement therapy medication adherence among smokers. The proposed study aims to examine the feasibility of delivering the pharmacist-delivered smoking cessation intervention to FQHC patients who are ready to quit, and expanding the intervention for smokers not ready to quit by adding 2 pre-quit sessions focused on rate reduction. The investigators will also determine facilitators and barriers to adopting and implementing the program in FQHCs.
Lung cancer is the second most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer related deaths in the United States (US . Tobacco use is the leading cause of lung cancer and tobacco control continues to be the primary method of lung cancer prevention. Smoking cessation interventions (SCIs) are strongly recommended by screening guidelines and have a class A recommendation by the United States Preventive Services Task Force. Currently, a variety of smoking cessation interventions exist, and evidence suggests that pharmacotherapy, such as nicotine replacement therapy, in combination with behavioral interventions is more effective than either intervention alone. Many individuals, however, prefer not to use or are unable to use pharmacotherapy. A variety of behavioral interventions exist to aid in smoking cession. Recently, virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a possible tool to conduct behavior interventions. Previous research has demonstrated that use of VR can improve patient engagement in a variety of chronic disease interventions. Little is known however about the feasibility and adoption of VR in smoking cessation, especially among individuals at high risk for lung cancers. VR based platforms utilize 'cue exposure therapy'. Given that cravings are often triggered by external factors, or cues, cue exposure therapy exposes individuals to repeated drug-related cues and provides them with tools to eliminate cue-induced cravings. Given the inability for all individuals to use pharmacotherapy there remains a critical need to improve adherence to and efficacy of behavioral interventions for smoking cessation. To address this unmet need, the investigators propose, as pilot study, to enroll patients undergoing routine lung cancer screening and who are not interested in or cannot take pharmacologic therapies for smoking cession, to participate in VR based smoking cessation therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a novel telehealth-based intervention to reduce tobacco use among LGBTQ+ people.
Tobacco smoking in pregnancy remains one of the most important and preventable cause of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Data from National Survey of Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) suggests, that the annual average rates of current cigarette use among women aged 15 to 44 who were not pregnant decreased from 30.7 percent in 2002-2003 to 24.0 percent in 2012-2013. However, the prevalence of cigarette use among pregnant women in this age range did not change significantly during the same time period (18.0 percent in 2002-2003 and 15.4 percent in 2012-2013)Smoking cigarettes during pregnancy and nursing causes considerable health damage to the fetus and to the infant during the initial growth phase. An estimated 19.8 million women in the United States smoke. Nationally, 23 percent of women report smoking in the 3 months before pregnancy, while 13 percent report smoking in the last 3 months of pregnancy. Overwhelming evidence suggests that maternal smoking during pregnancy is associated with an adverse pregnancy outcomes including IUGR, placenta previa, abruption placentae, preterm premature rupture of membranes, low birth weight, perinatal mortality, intrapartum stillbirth and ectopic pregnancy. Moreover, prenatal exposure to tobacco smoke also increases risk of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in the offspring.Children born to mothers who smoke during pregnancy are at increased risk of asthma, infantile colic, and childhood obesity. Brief interventions are shown to be associated with small but clear increases in smoking cessation in pregnancy, but are rarely used. Technology may fill this void. For the present study, pregnant women reporting smoking during pregnancy will be recruited and randomly assigned to one of eight combinations of three technology-delivered intervention approaches: Brief intervention, Quitline referral, and "SmokeFreeMoms" text messages (http://women.smokefree.gov/smokefreemom.aspx).
