About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to promote lung cancer screening (LCS) uptake among Hispanic current and former smokers. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* What barriers do current and former Hispanic smokers face in the identification and documentation of their smoking status? * How can digital delivery of an educational video promote LCS uptake among current and former Hispanic smokers?
Participants will receive an educational video about lung cancer screening and complete brief, self-reported surveys afterwards.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Must be 50-80 years old
Are a current or former smoker (quit within 15 years, or a cumulative smoking status of > 20 pack-years)
Not currently enrolled in Lung Cancer Screening
Must speak English or Spanish
Disqualifiers
Has a clinical cognitive inability to provide informed consent for participation in the study or complete a brief survey
Currently diagnosed with lung cancer
Currently enrolled in lung cancer screening
Have participated in the focus groups discussions from Aim 1
Trial population
Investigators chose to restrict eligibility to adults aged 50-80 with no personal history of lung cancer to meet the United States Preventive Services Task Force Guidelines for lung cancer screening. As the primary aim of this study is to address the disparities in lung cancer screening rates and outcomes for Hispanic individuals, only Hispanic-identifying patients will be eligible for participation. Further grants stemming from this project will include community-based outreach efforts to extend the testing and dissemination of this intervention to other underrepresented groups.
