Advancing Lung Cancer Screening One Text at a Time
This study is looking at whether a text messaging program, called UR Screened, can help more people get screened for lung cancer. You might be eligible if you are 50-80 years old, have a history of smoking, and haven't had your annual lung cancer screening. The study will compare the text messaging program to receiving educational materials by mail. Researchers want to see how easy the programs are to use, if people like them, and if they encourage more people to get screened for lung cancer within three months. The current status of this study is unclear.
- Study design
- This is a pilot randomized controlled trial with 40 adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the text messaging program or the mailed educational material.
- What's involved
- You would complete a baseline survey and a follow-up survey at Month 3. You would also need a functioning cellphone with unlimited text messaging capacity.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants are followed for 3 months after joining the study to see if they get lung cancer screening.
