About this study

Official title: Promoting Home Smoking Restrictions: Biomarker Feedback to Cohabitating Smoking and Non-Smoking Adults

This study is directed at decreasing home environmental tobacco smoking (ETS) exposure with a novel approach of adoption of home smoking restrictions. This will be done by providing the cohabitating smoker and non-smoker with biomarker feedback documenting exposure to ETS. The intent is to identify an intervention strategy(ies) to reduce ETS exposure.

Read the detailed description

This is a two-group interventional trial targeting cohabitating smokers and non-smokers. Participants will be randomized to the control condition or biomarker feedback group.

Being tested
Self-help brochure, Biomarker feedback
Keywords

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparison of Self-Reported Home Smoking Restrictions - Active Counseling

    Received self-help brochure and biomarker feedback from urine collected from non-smoking adult in home. Outcome criteria categorized into 3 areas: establishment of a complete ban (defined as no one allowed to smoke anywhere, ever), some restrictions (smoking allowed in some places or some time), and no restrictions (smoking permitted anywhere, no rules).

    Measured: From baseline to week 12

  2. Comparison of Self-Reported Home Smoking Restrictions - Control Group

    Received only self-help brochure on home ETS exposure. Outcome criteria categorized into 3 areas: establishment of a complete ban (defined as no one allowed to smoke anywhere, ever), some restrictions (smoking allowed in some places or some time), and no restrictions (smoking permitted anywhere, no rules).

    Measured: From baseline to week 12

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of Self-Reported Home Smoking Restrictions - Active Counseling (time frame: From baseline to week 12). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Aug 2014.
