Protocol for the development of a vaping cessation intervention for young adult veterans
The use of e-cigarettes (“vaping”) by young adults has increased substantially in the past decade. Although health risks of long-term e-cigarette use remain unknown, there is evidence of acute physiological harms. Most young adults who vape report intent to quit, but little is known about effective interventions. This protocol paper reports on the development and design of a pilot trial of a vaping intervention for young military Veterans.
Young adult Veterans accessing VA healthcare (n = 20) who vape daily and have been referred for cessation services will be enrolled. To maximize accessibility the intervention will be delivered virtually; participants will be randomized to receive behavioral counseling by telephone or by video telehealth. The intervention was adapted from an existing program targeting young adult cigarette smokers and will include 6 individual counseling sessions delivered over 8 weeks. Assessment visits will occur at baseline, at end-of-treatment, and 4 weeks later.
Analyses will evaluate feasibility and acceptability of the intervention overall, and will compare telephone and video telehealth modalities. Longitudinal regression will be used to evaluate changes in vaping behavior and in nicotine dependence over time.
This study will provide assessment of a novel intervention adapted for Veterans who vape nicotine. The comparison of two modalities of virtual intervention delivery will increase knowledge and the potential to disseminate across VA and other healthcare systems. Findings from this pilot trial will inform the design of future, larger studies of vaping cessation interventions for younger Veterans.
期刊介绍:
Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is an international peer reviewed open access journal that publishes articles pertaining to all aspects of clinical trials, including, but not limited to, design, conduct, analysis, regulation and ethics. Manuscripts submitted should appeal to a readership drawn from a wide range of disciplines including medicine, life science, pharmaceutical science, biostatistics, epidemiology, computer science, management science, behavioral science, and bioethics. Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is unique in that it is outside the confines of disease specifications, and it strives to increase the transparency of medical research and reduce publication bias by publishing scientifically valid original research findings irrespective of their perceived importance, significance or impact. Both randomized and non-randomized trials are within the scope of the Journal. Some common topics include trial design rationale and methods, operational methodologies and challenges, and positive and negative trial results. In addition to original research, the Journal also welcomes other types of communications including, but are not limited to, methodology reviews, perspectives and discussions. Through timely dissemination of advances in clinical trials, the goal of Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications is to serve as a platform to enhance the communication and collaboration within the global clinical trials community that ultimately advances this field of research for the benefit of patients.
