About this study

Hospitalization for elective knee or hip replacement surgery presents an outstanding opportunity to motivate people to quit smoking, because it provides an opportunity to encourage patients to remain smoke-free as they proactively quit to optimize their surgery outcomes. This study will conduct a comparative effectiveness trial of patients who quit smoking pre-operatively, comparing the current standard of care with a novel comprehensive relapse prevention intervention guided by Marlatt's Relapse Prevention Model.

Read the detailed description

The specific aims of this study are to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the relapse prevention intervention and will: 1) compare the effectiveness of standard post-operative cessation treatment with a comprehensive relapse prevention intervention on smoking cessation outcomes; 2) conduct a comparative economic analysis to assess the value of the relapse prevention intervention for patients and the healthcare system; and 3) explore the impact of the interventions on surgical complications and readmissions.

What participants receive

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

  • Comprehensive Relapse Prevention InterventionBehavioural

    This intervention consists of 4 components:

    1. Visit Prior to Discharge: counselor from research team will visit patient at hospital bedside to provide counseling
    2. Follow up calls after discharge: 6 proactive counseling calls and initiate unlimited reactive calls to their counselor, at days 1,3,7,14,30,an 60 days after hospital visit
    3. Text messaging support: patients will be registered in NCI's Smokefree TXT while in the hospital and will receive multiple daily messages, designed for someone who has already quit
    4. Caregiver support: 10 minute training session to the caregiver on how to help patient prevent relapse by increasing self efficacy, maintaining motivation and dealing with high risk situations
  • Standard Treatment CounselingBehavioural

    Participants will receive two 10 minute counseling calls from the staff of the preoperative counseling program during the first month after the hospital discharge

  • Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)Drug

    Patients in both arms will be encouraged to receive NRT
