Virtual avatar helps smokers quit in hopkins pilot

NCT ID NCT05145738

Summary

This study tested a new computer program called 'C-Raven' designed to help people quit smoking. The program uses an interactive avatar named Edna Poe to guide users through sessions, followed by optional nicotine patches and support from a community health worker. Researchers wanted to see if using this program in two Johns Hopkins clinics was practical and acceptable, and if having the virtual counselor made people more satisfied and engaged.
