Opioid Abuse Clinical Trial

Official title:
Application of Economics & Social Psychology to Improve Opioid Prescribing Safety Trial 2 (AESOPS-2): Availability of Opioid Harm

Clinical Trial Summary

The opioid epidemic is the largest man-made public health crisis the United States has faced. The objective of Trial 2 of the Application of Economics & Social psychology to improve Opioid Prescribing Safety (AESOPS-2) study, is to discourage unnecessary opioid prescribing by increasing the salience of negative patient outcomes associated with opioid use.

Clinical Trial Description

In AESOPS-2, a multi-site study, random assignment determines if prescribers to persons who suffer an opioid overdose (fatal or nonfatal) learn of this event (intervention) or practice usual-care (control). The AESOPS-2 trial will take place in 3 diverse health systems in the U.S. - Northwestern Medicine, AltaMed Health Services, and The Children's Clinic. At Northwestern Medicine, clinicians in the intervention group receive a letter notifying them of their patient's fatal or nonfatal ED overdose. At AltaMed Health Services, and The Children's Clinic, clinicians in the intervention group receive a letter notifying them of their patient's nonfatal ED overdose. The primary outcome is the change in clinician weekly milligram morphine equivalent (MME) dose prescribed in 6-month periods before and after receiving the letter. The secondary outcome is the change in the proportion of patients prescribed at least 50 daily MME. Group differences in these outcomes will be compared using an intent-to-treat difference-in-differences framework with a mixed-effects regression model to estimate clinician MME weekly dose. The AESOPS-2 trial will provide new knowledge about whether increasing prescribers' awareness of patients' opioid-related overdoses leads to a reduction in opioid prescribing. Additionally, this trial may better inform how to reduce opioid use disorder and opioid overdoses by lowering unnecessary population exposure to these drugs. ;
