The study is a randomized, controlled trial comparing music therapy associated to NRT versus NRT alone to evaluate the value of music therapy in improving the management of craving among 50 health staff smokers. This pilot multi-method study will combine the methodology of clinical trial with qualitative techniques used in social sciences to show the interest of a digital music therapy tool, adapted to a health staff audience.
The participants will be recruited at the Clinical Investigation Center (CIC) of the University Hospital of Poitiers. At baseline visit, they will be randomly 1:1 assigned to receive either music therapy and NRT or NRT alone for 3 months. During the 3 months after Target Quit Date (TQD) , 3 visits will be performed by practitioners and nurses at the CIC. They will register smoking status of the participant, exhaled carbon monoxide concentration, body weight and all adverse events. Participants will answer questionnaires (FTCQ-12,Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale ( HAD), Minnesota Nicotine Withdrawal Scale (MNWS), Impulsive Behavior Scale (UPPS), State-trait Anxiety Inventory Forme Y (STAI-Y)).
