Mobile program to help you get screened for lung cancer
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a mobile health program to remind and assist you in getting a lung cancer screening scan if you are at high risk. The goal is to make it easier to follow screening guidelines.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 77 years old.
- You have smoked at least 20 pack-years (that is one pack a day for 20 years, or two packs a day for 10 years).
- You currently smoke or have quit within the last 15 years.
- You see a primary care doctor in the Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist network (had a visit in the last 6 months, or two visits in the last 18 months, or have an appointment scheduled for the next 30 days).
- You have a patient portal account or a cell phone number listed in your electronic health record, and you have a North Carolina address on file.
- You do not have a history of lung cancer, have not had a chest CT scan in the last year, and do not have other serious health problems that would make screening inappropriate.
