eCEASE to Support Treatment for Parental Tobacco Use

Electronic Pediatric Office Systems to Support Treatment for Parental Tobacco Use

The proposed project aims to develop an innovative and disseminable electronic health record (iEHR)-based approach that supports optimal primary care workflows to routinely screen families for tobacco and e-cigarette use, address household smoking behavior and promote smoke-free and e-cigarette free home and car rules in a routine and effective manner in the pediatric setting. Additionally, parents enrolled in the study will be offered assistance by a community health navigator (CHN). This study aims to examine how effective the iEHR + Navigator strategy is compared to usual care control.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Parents or legal guardians who smoke, are present at the visit, and whose child is seen by a child healthcare clinician in a participating practice. "Smoker" will be defined as answering "yes" to either of the screening questions: "Have you smoked a cigarette, even a puff, in the past 7 days?" and "Have you smoked any other tobacco product (cigars like black and mild, hookah), even a puff, in the past 7 days?"

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Parent/legal guardian does not speak English;
2. No telephone; and
3. Prior enrollment in the study during a previous visit.
