19 de setembro de 2022 atualizado por: University of California, San Francisco

Social Media-Based Treatment: Engaging Sexual and Gender Minority Smokers

This research study will evaluate the preliminary efficacy of Pride Posts Plus, a social media-based smoking cessation treatment. A pilot randomized trial (N=120) will compare Pride Posts Plus, which includes a gamification element, to Pride Posts (without gamification) and to a usual care treatment. Participants will be adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities, and use Facebook. The primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be treatment engagement, a quit attempt (y/n), and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 mos.

Visão geral do estudo

Descrição detalhada

Participants (N=136) will be randomized to one of three conditions: (1) Pride Posts, a Facebook-delivered smoking cessation intervention (including daily posts, and weekly live group sessions, tailored to sexual and gender minority (SGM) adults; (2) Pride Posts Plus, the Facebook-delivered smoking cessation intervention plus a gamification element, or (2) a usual care condition which includes referral to smokefree.gov, a federally-developed web-based intervention which includes similar digital treatment elements. All participants will have access to up to six months of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT).

Assessments will occur at baseline, 3, and 6 months follow-up. Assessments will include measures on smoking, thoughts about abstinence, and SGM identity experiences. All participants who report no past 7-day smoking will be asked to provide biochemical verification of smoking status using a portable carbon monoxide measurement tool. All intervention and assessment procedures will be conducted digitally.

Posts and group sessions focus on tobacco use education, developing a quit plan, as well as managing stress, negative thinking, social support, exercise, as techniques to support cessation.

Participants will have access to up to six months of nicotine patch therapy. Participants will start on either 21, 14, or 7 mg patches based on manufacturers recommendations based on smoking behaviors.

In addition to nicotine patch, participants will have access to a choice of 2 mg. nicotine lozenges or nicotine gum as an adjunct to patch treatment. Participants will be encouraged to use up to 5 pieces daily to address situational urges and cravings for a cigarette.
