SCH: INT: Harnessing the Power of Technology: MOMBA for Postpartum Smoking

Through a smartphone platform, financial incentives for smoking abstinence in postpartum
women can be delivered remotely, thus minimizing the need for participants to come to the
office to receive traditional contingency management.

The specific aims of the proposal are:

1. To develop through a 15-month pilot study, a novel smartphone-based system, Momba
Smoking, that can be used in further relapse prevention trials for postpartum smokers.

2. To determine, through a pilot randomized controlled trial, the potential feasibility,
acceptability, and methodological parameters that are necessary to design a subsequent,
appropriately powered, randomized controlled trial of the Momba Smoking smartphone-based
system.

3. To advance discovery and understanding on the use of technology to translate smoking
cessation interventions from clinical to community settings through the training of the
next generation of scientists.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Women who are over the age of 18
