Study Overview
Brief Summary
The present study is a 3-arm randomized controlled pilot study. Participants who call the Maryland Tobacco Quitline and are eligible for study participation are randomized to receive quitline tobacco cessation treatment as usual (TAU), TAU plus remote carbon monoxide (CO) monitoring via smartphone app, or TAU plus remote carbon monoxide monitoring plus incentives vis smartphone app. The investigators hypothesize that remote CO monitoring will be feasible and acceptable to deliver in the quitline setting, will increase treatment engagement, and will increase tobacco cessation and treatment satisfaction rates.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Treatment Satisfaction
Time Frame: 60 days
Rating of satisfaction with quitline services on a 6-point scale collected via follow-up survey. Five questions were internally developed to determine satisfaction with the quitline services provided where low numbers (1-3) mean dissatisfaction and high numbers (4-6) mean satisfaction. Participants that reported a score of 4 (somewhat satisfied) or more are represented in the data table.
Treatment Engagement
Time Frame: 60 days
Number of quitline calls each participant engages in, collected via clinical record system.
Self-reported Tobacco Abstinence
Time Frame: 60 days
7 day point prevalence abstinence from all combustible tobacco collected via follow-up survey
Secondary Outcomes
- Biochemically Verified Tobacco Abstinence(60 days)
- Engagement With CO Monitor(60 days)
- Satisfaction With CO Monitor(60 days)
