About

The study is a randomized, controlled trial comparing music therapy associated to NRT versus NRT alone to evaluate the value of music therapy in improving the management of craving among 50 health staff smokers. This pilot multi-method study will combine the methodology of clinical trial with qualitative techniques used in social sciences to show the interest of a digital music therapy tool, adapted to a health staff audience.

Full description

The participants will be recruited at the Clinical Investigation Center (CIC) of the University Hospital of Poitiers. At baseline visit, they will be randomly 1:1 assigned to receive either music therapy and NRT or NRT alone for 3 months.
