Brief Summary:
The proposed study plans to adapt and study the implementation and effectiveness of integrating Clinical and Community Effort Against Secondhand smoke Exposure (CEASE) into the thoracic oncology setting using mixed methods.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Smoking Cessation Lung Cancer Other: CEASE Other: Usual Care Tobacco Treatment Services Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

In particular the study aims to see if participants are asked about their smoking status and what services are offered if someone indicates being a former or current smoker. Findings from this study will help improve a standard of care at this clinic and allow us to understand what type of tobacco treatment services are preferred by patients.

  • Adaption of CEASE will entail exit interviews with patients and individual interviews with clinical staff to identify and address facilitators and barriers to the implementation process.
  • Effectiveness of CEASE will be measured through questionnaires & biochemical verification of smoking status using a pre-test/post-test study design before (usual care)and after implementation (CEASE)

Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Cease-Aim 1
  • Cease Implementation
  • 100 Patients after CEASE Implementation

    • Exit Interview and Tobacco Use Survey
Other: CEASE
  • Clinical and Community Effort Against Secondhand Smoke Exposure (CEASE)
  • CEASE is a system-level intervention that integrates tobacco-use screening, cessation assistance, and referral to outside services into routine visits

Active Comparator: Pre Cease Implementation Aim 2

50 Current or former smokers (3 months +/-2 month) patients in usual care (before CEASE implementation)

  • Tobacco Use Survey (Baseline,1- 6 Months)
  • Biochemical verification
Other: Usual Care Tobacco Treatment Services
Experimental: After Cease Implementation Aim 2

50 Current or former smokers (3 months +/-2 month)

  • Tobacco Use Survey (Baseline,1- 6 Months)
  • Biochemical verification
Other: CEASE
  • Clinical and Community Effort Against Secondhand Smoke Exposure (CEASE)
  • CEASE is a system-level intervention that integrates tobacco-use screening, cessation assistance, and referral to outside services into routine visits

Active Comparator: Usual Care-Aim 1

Usual Care Tobacco Treatment Services

  • 100 patients in usual care
  • Exit Interview and Tobacco Use Survey
Other: Usual Care Tobacco Treatment Services
No Intervention: Clinician and Staff Survey
- Interview clinicians and support staff (40)



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Smoking cessation Rate [ Time Frame: 6 Months ]
    Biochemical verification of smoking cessation


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Documentation of tobacco treatment [ Time Frame: 2 months after CEASE ]
    Assess documentation of smoking assessment and provision of treatment ( medication and referral for behavioral counseling)
