About this study

Official title: Video Interventions for Dependence On Smoking (VIDeOS) for Cancer Patients: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Study

The purpose of the current study is to pilot the efficacy, feasibility, and acceptability of an evidence-based smoking cessation intervention adapted for cancer patients and delivered via video. Investigators aim to assess if this intervention is considered acceptable by participants, feasible to implement, and effective at increasing knowledge about smoking cessation before conducting a fully powered clinical trial.

Read the detailed description

A randomized controlled pilot study is being conducted to test the acceptability and feasibility of a smoking cessation intervention tailored for cancer patients that is delivered via video. Participants will be in a video intervention or control group that receives information about quitting smoking. Participants will complete surveys prior to randomization, and will complete additional surveys one week, one month, and three months post-randomization to provide their thoughts about the videos, information about changes to smoking behaviors, and knowledge about quitting smoking.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Acceptability of Intervention Measure

    Acceptability will be measured using the measure titled the "Acceptability of Intervention Measure" (AIM), which contains four items with answer options on a scale from 1-5. Higher scores indicating higher acceptability. We will consider the intervention "acceptable" if an average score of 4 or higher is obtained.

    Measured: 1 week post-randomization

  2. Feasibility of Intervention Measure

    Feasibility will be measured using the measure title the "Feasibility of Intervention Measure" (FIM), which contains four items with answer options on a scale from 1-5. Answer responses are summed and averaged. Higher scores indicating higher feasibility. We will consider the intervention "feasible" if an average score of 4 or higher is obtained.

    Measured: 1 week post-randomization

  3. Number of Participants Retained

    We will determine if there are differences in retention rates between intervention groups.

    Measured: 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months post-randomization

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Questions About Knowledge Related to Quitting Smoking That Were Answered Correctly

    Questions about the impact of quitting smoking were asked to determine if there were numeric differences in the number of participants who answered each question correctly between intervention and control groups at 1-week follow-ups. Questions were true or false questions generated by the primary investigator. We calculated the number of participants who answered each of the three questions correctly.

    Measured: 1 week

  2. Number of Participants Who Made Quit Attempts and Achieved Smoking Abstinence at 1-week, 1-month, and 3-month Follow-ups

    We calculated the number of 24-hour quit attempts made by participants in each group at the 1-week, 3-month, and 6-month follow-ups. We also calculated the number of participants who reported past 7-day point prevalence abstinence at 1-week, 1-month, and 3-month follow-ups.

    Measured: 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months post-randomization
