The goal of this behavioral research study is to learn about the outcomes of smoking cessation treatment. Researchers want to learn how many smokers stopped smoking after taking part in smoking cessation treatment with the Texas Quitline.

Conditions

  • Tobacco Use Cessation

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Quitline-Delivered Proactive Telephone Counseling

Smokers who enroll in treatment receive standard counseling protocol offered by the Quitline. This includes up to five proactive telephone counseling calls, each designed to provide practical expert support to help smokers develop problem-solving and coping skills, secure social support, and design a plan for successful cessation and long-term abstinence.

BEHAVIORAL

Follow-Up Phone Call

Six months after enrolling in treatment with the Texas Quitline, an MD Anderson research team member will contact patients to assess their smoking status via telephone.

BEHAVIORAL

Smoking Cessation Training

Medical staff (i.e., medical assistants, licensed vocational nurses, registered nurse and physicians) receive initial face-to-face group training on how to ask patients about their smoking status, advise them to quit, and connect them with the Quitline. The specific content of the session will include information on quitting smoking, how to implement AAC, the effectiveness of telephone counseling for smoking cessation delivered via quitlines, and pharmacotherapies including nicotine replacement.

BEHAVIORAL

Qualitative Interviews Concerning the Implementation of AAC

MD Anderson staff conduct individual in-depth interviews with administrative leadership as well as those medical staff who are authorized to enter patient information into the EMR and are trained in the Ask-Advise-Connect approach. All in-depth interviews will be recorded and transcribed.
