Preventing Smoking Relapse After Total Joint Replacement Surgery

November 10, 2021 updated by: NYU Langone Health
Hospitalization for elective knee or hip replacement surgery presents an outstanding opportunity to motivate people to quit smoking, because it provides an opportunity to encourage patients to remain smoke-free as they proactively quit to optimize their surgery outcomes. This study will conduct a comparative effectiveness trial of patients who quit smoking pre-operatively, comparing the current standard of care with a novel comprehensive relapse prevention intervention guided by Marlatt's Relapse Prevention Model.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The specific aims of this study are to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the relapse prevention intervention and will: 1) compare the effectiveness of standard post-operative cessation treatment with a comprehensive relapse prevention intervention on smoking cessation outcomes; 2) conduct a comparative economic analysis to assess the value of the relapse prevention intervention for patients and the healthcare system; and 3) explore the impact of the interventions on surgical complications and readmissions.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
EXPERIMENTAL: Intervention Group

Participants randomized to the Intervention Arm will receive counseling that includes:

  • A Visit prior to discharge
  • Follow up calls after discharge
  • Text Messaging Support
  • Caregiver Support
Behavioral: Comprehensive Relapse Prevention Intervention

This intervention consists of 4 components:

  1. Visit Prior to Discharge: counselor from research team will visit patient at hospital bedside to provide counseling
  2. Follow up calls after discharge: 6 proactive counseling calls and initiate unlimited reactive calls to their counselor, at days 1,3,7,14,30,an 60 days after hospital visit
  3. Text messaging support: patients will be registered in NCI's Smokefree TXT while in the hospital and will receive multiple daily messages, designed for someone who has already quit
  4. Caregiver support: 10 minute training session to the caregiver on how to help patient prevent relapse by increasing self efficacy, maintaining motivation and dealing with high risk situations
Drug: Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)
Patients in both arms will be encouraged to receive NRT
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Standard treatment
Patients will receive current usual care.
Drug: Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)
Patients in both arms will be encouraged to receive NRT
Behavioral: Standard Treatment Counseling
Participants will receive two 10 minute counseling calls from the staff of the preoperative counseling program during the first month after the hospital discharge
