Feasibility outcome

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lung cancer screening knowledge pre and post receipt of the decision aid measured using a novel scale (score 0-16 with higher score representing high levels of knowledge about lung cancer screening)4 months
Rates of normal, indeterminate and positive screening scans, reported according to definitions in the British Thoracic Society Pulmonary Nodule Management Guidelines12 months
Cancer worry severity levels pre and post screening measured using measured using 4-item Brief Worry Scale (score 4-20 with higher score representing higher cancer worry severity levels)12 months
Health related quality of life pre-screening then 6 and 12 months post screening measured using the validated SF-12 (short-form-12) scale (Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better physical and mental health functioning)12 months
The acceptability of undergoing screening measured using non-validated scale (Score 7-70 with higher score representing higher perceived acceptability of lung cancer screening)2 months
The type and prevalence of incidental findings on screening scans12 months
The barriers and facilitators to undergoing lung cancer screening measured qualitatively and categorised according to the Theoretical Domains Framework12 months
Preparedness for decision making in those who receive the decision aid using the validated Preparedness for Decision Making Scale (score 0-100 with higher score representing higher perceived levels of preparedness for decision making)4 months
Decisional conflict scores in those who receive the decision aid measured using the validated Decisional Conflict Scale (score 0-100 with higher score representing higher levels of decisional conflict)14 months
The proportion who have made an informed decision as measured by the Multidimensional Measure of Informed Choice6 and 12 months following CT scan
The rates of smoking cessation 6 and 12 months following screening12 months
Anxiety levels pre and post screening measured using the State Trait Anxiety Inventory -6 validated scale (score 6-24 with higher score representing higher levels of anxiety)2 months post CT scan
Cancer worry frequency measured using intrusive thoughts subscale from Revised impact of events scale (score 6-30 with higher score representing more frequent cancer worry)12 months
