Trial Outcomes & Findings for Just Kwit: Mobile Intervention for Tobacco Cessation (NCT NCT03538678)

NCT ID: NCT03538678

Last Updated: 2021-02-18

Results Overview

Assessment of feasibility - Descriptive statistics that will be obtained via a follow up survey will be used to assess feasibility. The follow up survey will be administered one month after discharge via email, phone or in-person, determined by the preference of the participant. Specific questions will be asked asking participants to rate the Kwit smartphone application based on helpfulness, ease of use, and to list frustrations and helpful aspects of the application. How helpful was the Kwit app? Very helpful Somewhat helpful Neutral Not very helpful Not at all helpful Was the app easy to use? Very Somewhat Neutral Not much Not at all Was it frustrating to use? Very Somewhat Neutral Not much Not at all What, if anything, was helpful about the app? What, if anything, was not helpful about the app?

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1-month

Assessment of cessation - Descriptive statistics will be used to assess cessation outcomes. The information will be obtained via a follow up survey with specific questions pertaining to the level of participant smoking as well as their confidence levels on maintaining cessation. Since you left the hospital in (month/year), have you smoked a cigarette (even a puff)? In the past 30 days, have you smoked a cigarette, even a puff? In the past 7 days, have you smoked a cigarette, even a puff?
