SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 months

Population: 14 out of the 23 in control group completed 3 month survey and 19 out of 24 in patient navigation group completed the 3 month survey.

Stage of change is assessed at baseline and 3 months. Three months after study entry, 7 of patient navigation-intervention participants who had initially said that they did not have a time frame in mind for quitting reported that they now had a time frame in mind for quitting, relative to 1 of ETC-control participants.
