Smartphone-delivered Automated Video-assisted Smoking Treatment for People Living With HIV

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2017-12-31
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The proposed pilot study seeks to address the smoking treatment needs of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) by evaluating the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a smartphone delivered automated video-assisted smoking treatment (AVAST). AVAST will enable smoking cessation treatment content to be presented with voice/audio, images, videos, and text in an interactive, structured format anytime and anywhere. This automated treatment approach is designed to enhance treatment engagement and facilitate abstinence from smoking among PLWHA. Participants will be recruited from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) clinics providing care to HIV+ individuals (e.g., the Infectious Diseases Institute).
