ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how cash rewards and counseling can help pregnant women quit smoking. Smoking during pregnancy can harm both the mother and her unborn baby, so the study aims to find out the best ways to support women in stopping smoking during this important time. Researchers are particularly interested in how small financial incentives can encourage women to successfully quit.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be women who are currently smoking at least one cigarette a day and are between 15 to 23 weeks pregnant. The trial is currently recruiting participants, and it’s important to note that those with language difficulties or cognitive impairments may not be able to take part. If you join the study, you can expect to receive support and rewards aimed at helping you stop smoking, which could lead to a healthier pregnancy for you and your baby.
