Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary goal of the current study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a combined tele-health and contingency management (CM) intervention that investigators are calling Abstinence Reinforcement Therapy (ART). Proposed is a comparative effectiveness trial with a two-group design in which 310 Veteran smokers will be randomized to either: ABSTINENCE REINFORCEMENT THERAPY (ART) a proactive tele-health intervention that combines guideline based cognitive-behavioral telephone counseling (TC), a tele-medicine clinic for access to nicotine replacement (NRT), and intensive behavioral therapy through mobile contingency management. TELE-HEALTH FOR SMOKING CESSATION a proactive tele-health intervention that will provide controls for therapist, medication, time and attention effects. The tele-health intervention provides the same guideline based cognitive-behavioral smoking cessation telephone counseling (TC), and tele-medicine clinic for access to NRT as in the ART intervention.
