Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of the proposed clinical trial is to determine if we can increase LCS among ED patients using a combination of facilitated referral to an LCS program plus text message reminders to get screened. Step 1 of the approach is to identify participants that are eligible for LCS. Step 2 is to randomize eligible study participants between two study arms: (1) basic referral for LCS (i.e. verbal referral with written materials), and (2) facilitated referral for LCS (i.e. submission of a requisition to LCS program by staff) plus a subsequent series of text messages aimed at generating intention and motivation to get screened. The investigators' preliminary work showed this approach was feasible in the ED setting. The proposed study will build on this preliminary work with the goal of having a significant positive impact on LCS uptake. A total of 300 individuals eligible for LCS will be recruited from a high-volume urban ED, randomized between study arms, and followed-up at 120 days to assess interval LCS uptake. The Specific Aims of the proposed project are, (1) Compare LCS uptake between the two study arms, (2) Identify predictors of individuals that are not up-to-date with LCS at the time of enrollment, and (3) Evaluate study participant feedback on (a) barriers and facilitators to getting screened and (b) acceptability and appropriateness of ED-based promotion of LCS. The study team is at the forefront of developing ED-based interventions to promote cancer screening. This project leverages the universal access setting of the ED to identify individuals at greatest risk for lung cancer and get them screened. A scalable ED-based intervention that increases LCS uptake would save lives.
