Virtual check-ups aim to help rural smokers quit and catch lung disease early
NCT ID NCT06236347
Summary
This study is testing whether online medical visits can help people in rural areas quit smoking and get screened for COPD, a serious lung disease often caused by smoking. 144 adult smokers will be randomly assigned to either receive the online visit or not. The online visit asks questions about smoking habits and lung symptoms, and may lead to a prescription for quit-smoking medication, though taking medication is optional.
