Evaluation of a Computer-Delivered 5 A's Intervention for Smoking
| Status: | Terminated |
|---|---|
| Conditions: | Smoking Cessation |
| Therapuetic Areas: | Pulmonary / Respiratory Diseases |
| Healthy: | No |
| Age Range: | 18 - 65 |

This is a 2-group RCT in 380 tobacco-using medical patients that will compare a single
session, computer-directed 5 A's intervention for smoking (experimental condition) to
screening and resource provision (control condition). Follow-up visits will occur at 1 and 3
months post study enrollment. Measures will focus on tobacco use and related psychosocial
outcomes (e.g. mood, stress). We will compare resources used and economic costs needed to
implement each intervention.
The Investigators hypothesize that patients receiving the computer-directed intervention
will have significantly higher tobacco abstinence rates at 3 months post study enrollment
compared to the control group. If indeed the computerized intervention increases tobacco
abstinence rates compared to the control group, this intervention could be used to increase
access to treatment for the millions of US smokers, ultimately reducing tobacco mortality
and morbidity rates in this country.
