NCT04979169

Brief Summary

This is a randomized controlled pilot trial of a text-based behavioral intervention aimed at increasing uptake of lung cancer screening among emergency department patients. We will conduct a 2-year randomized controlled clinical trial with a prospectively collected convenience sample of 366 adults who are eligible for LCS but non-adherent with LCS screening guidelines. Adults aged 50-80 will be recruited from a high-volume urban ED and a low-volume rural ED, assigned to study conditions, and followed-up at 150 days to assess interval engagement with the University of Rochester Medical Center's LCS screening program (primary outcome). Electronic Health Record (EHR) review will be conducted to assess screening results and subsequent clinical endpoints.

Study Arms (2)

Non-adherent control

NO INTERVENTION

Subjects who are determined to be non-adherent to screening guidelines and are assigned to usual treatment via randomization in REDCap.

Non-adherent intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects who are determined to be non-adherent to screening guidelines and are assigned to intervention treatment (text messaging) via randomization in REDCap.

Behavioral: Text Messaging

Interventions

Text MessagingBEHAVIORAL

A series of theory-informed text messages encouraging them to contact their primary care provider and the UR LCS Program's Patient Navigator to coordinate screening, along with contact information to do so.
