Summary

The purpose of the current study is to pilot the efficacy, feasibility, and acceptability of an evidence-based smoking cessation intervention adapted for cancer patients and delivered via video. Investigators aim to assess if this intervention is considered acceptable by participants, feasible to implement, and effective at increasing knowledge about smoking cessation before conducting a fully powered clinical trial.

Detailed description

A randomized controlled pilot study is being conducted to test the acceptability and feasibility of a smoking cessation intervention tailored for cancer patients that is delivered via video. Participants will be in a video intervention or control group that receives information about quitting smoking. Participants will complete surveys prior to randomization, and will complete additional surveys one week, one month, and three months post-randomization to provide their thoughts about the videos, information about changes to smoking behaviors, and knowledge about quitting smoking.
