About this study

The proposed project will test the effectiveness of the novel delivery of an established tobacco cessation treatment among pregnant women in Kentucky. Tobacco use during pregnancy is one of the most modifiable risk factors associated with poor birth and maternal outcomes and yet smoking prevalence among pregnant women in Kentucky is among the highest in the county and estimated to be twice that of the national average, with no meaningful declines observed in twenty years.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this pilot project is to test effectiveness of a tobacco-treatment cessation intervention (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) 5 A's) through use of a non-physician healthcare champion from within the clinic's existing infrastructure. This Tobacco use in Pregnancy Intervention for Cessation (ToPIC) will involve training the identified healthcare provider to become a Certified Tobacco Treatment Specialist (CTTS) and to administer the 5 A's to pregnant Medicaid patients receiving prenatal care through two high-volume Kentucky obstetrics clinics. This trial will provide evidence to evaluate this approach to delivering an established intervention in clinical practice.

The Investigators propose to test the effectiveness of the clinical intervention by using a two-armed cluster randomized controlled design. Eligible participants will be randomized to the intervention (ToPIC) or standard of care for smoking cessation in pregnancy. This pilot project will gather quantitative and qualitative data for a mixed-method, multi-stakeholder process evaluation of intervention training and delivery. Furthermore, the Investigators' use of Medicaid claims data to examine healthcare utilization outside of maternal and infant well-care visits will enhance understanding of the strengths and limitations of these data for future evaluations. This study has the potential to significantly impact the most vulnerable in Kentucky, where rates of tobacco use among pregnant women are among the highest in the nation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    Expanded tobacco cessation counseling for pregnant women.

  • Tobacco Treatment As Usual (TTAU)Behavioural

    Standard of care tobacco cessation counseling for pregnant women

Study groups in NCT03442530
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Tobacco Treatment As Usual (TTAU)Active comparatorEligible women assigned to the control group will be informed of the risks of tobacco use and benefits of quitting using the ACOG 5A's approach by their healthcare provider.5 This standard takes approximately 5-15 minutes, and is offered at each prenatal and postpartum appointment. The study coordinator will invite participants to complete the tobacco use questionnaires (TUQ),urine cotinine validation, and Expired Air Carbon Monoxide (EACO) analysis to assess ongoing tobacco use at the designated time points.
Receives: Behavioral: Tobacco Treatment As Usual (TTAU)
ToPICExperimentalEligible women assigned to the intervention will receive TTAU plus ToPIC administered by the CTTS. At least once monthly, at routinely scheduled prenatal visits or through telephone, the CTTS will provide cessation counseling. The CTTS will invite participants to complete TUQs,urine cotinine validation and EACO analysis to assess ongoing tobacco use at the designated time points.
Receives: Behavioral: ToPIC

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ToPIC and Tobacco Treatment As Usual (TTAU) in people with Pregnancy, run by Kristin Ashford at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Smoking cessation (time frame: Baseline to third trimester). 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 25 Mar 2020.
