About

The Quit and Screen Project seeks to engage healthcare providers in helping adults who smoke to quit tobacco use, including menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars, and screen for lung cancer early as strategies to reduce multiple chronic diseases.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the feasibility and impact of the Quit and Screen Project alone versus the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training + the Quit and Screen Project training modules on changes in provider knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions related to provider advice to quit smoking and referrals for low dose computed tomography among health care providers randomly assigned to each condition. Participants will complete the training modules and complete pre- and post-tests to assess these outcomes.

Full description

This clinical trial tests the feasibility and impact of the Quit and Screen Project alone versus the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training + the Quit and Screen Project training modules on changes in provider knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions related to provider advice to quit smoking and referrals for low dose computed tomography among health care providers randomly assigned to each condition.

In partnership with the National Medical Association, investigators will recruit 300 healthcare providers who provide clinical services to individuals who smoke smoke. Interested providers will be screened; if eligible, the will complete informed consent. Providers who complete the online consent and agree to enroll in the training study will be individually randomized to one of 2 conditions: The Quit and Screen Project alone versus the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training + the Quit and Screen Project training. After randomization, providers will complete a pre-test assessing their knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions related to provider advice to quit smoking and referrals for low dose computed tomography. Providers will then complete an online training. Providers will then complete a post-test assessing their 1) knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions related to provider advice to quit smoking and referrals for low dose computed tomography and 2) preferences for the online materials and satisfaction with the training. Feasibility will be assessed using data on provider interest in the training and training reach.

300 participants in 2 patient groups

Quit and Screen Project training alone

Experimental group

Description:

Providers in this arm will only complete the Quit and Screen Project training. This online course will be developed for healthcare providers and will fill gaps in knowledge and attitudes toward lung cancer screening and smoking not covered by the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training .

Treatment:

Other: Quit and Screen Project training

Quit and Screen Project training + G02 Lung Cancer Screening training

Experimental group

Description:

In this arm, providers will complete the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training and the Quit and Screen Project training. The Quit and Screen Project training is an online course being developed to fill gaps in knowledge and attitudes toward lung cancer screening and smoking not covered by the G02 Lung Cancer Screening training.
