Smoking Cessation Pilot for People Living With HIV (PLWH)

The overall goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of the Lumme smartphone app for smoking cessation in people living with HIV (PLWH) and evaluate its effect on smoking cessation. Mobile health (mHealth) technology can be used for achieving health equity in vulnerable groups because it is a widely available and relatively inexpensive tool for health behavior change and can be adapted to meet the needs of its end-users. Therefore, a mHealth intervention such as the Lumme App proposed through this study is timely, relevant, scalable and likely to improve health outcomes in PLWH who smoke.
