Filter by:This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility and clinical utility of extended-release injectable buprenorphine (XR-BUP) for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) among individuals at high-risk for overdose (OD).
The Houston Emergency Response Opioid Engagement System for Youths and Adolescents (Young HEROES) is a community-based research program integrating assertive outreach, medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD), behavioral counseling, and peer recovery support. The objective is to compare differences in engagement and retention in treatment for individuals with opioid use disorder. The investigators also intend to understand the prevalence of opioid overdoses and OUD among youth in Houston.
Among people at risk of opioid overdose and receiving care in an academic emergency department, family practice, opioid substitution clinic or general inpatient units, does brief opioid overdose resuscitation training and naloxone distribution reduce resuscitation failures in a simulated overdose even, in comparison with standard-of-care referral to a local OEND program, within 14 days post-intervention? Can an integrated participant recruitment and retention strategy recruit approximately 28 eligible participants within 4 weeks and maintain less than 50% attrition rates in the context of a randomized trial on point-of-care OEND and simulated overdose resuscitation performance in family practice, emergency department, and addictions settings?
A Single-Dose, Bioequivalence Study of FMXIN001 4 mg Microspheres Nasal Powder.
This Phase I SBIR will develop and demonstrate the usability/feasibility of the Opioid Rapid Response System (OSSR) in order to reduce deaths and strain on emergency response systems from opioid overdoses.
This pilot study evaluates the needs of opioid users for a device-based intervention for opioid overdoses. The results of this one-time short questionnaire will inform development of a novel naloxone delivery device.
This study will test the efficacy of a novel drug-checking intervention to prevent fatal and non-fatal overdose among people who use drugs (PWUD), who are 18-65 years old at the time of enrollment. The investigators will evaluate whether the incorporation of rapid fentanyl testing into a theory-driven overdose education and prevention intervention reduces rates of overdose compared to standard overdose education and naloxone distribution. Results from this study will significantly improve public health efforts to address the fentanyl overdose epidemic and reduce harms associated with exposure to drugs contaminated with fentanyl. This is a full clinical trial, building on the previously approved fentanyl-test-strip pilot study (2016-2017), the results of which have recently been published.(Krieger et al., 2018)
The New York City (NYC) Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has implemented Relay, a novel program that engages and intervenes with individuals in the ED following an opioid OD and for the next 90 days, with the goal of preventing subsequent OD events. The proposed randomized controlled trial will evaluate the impact of Relay on preventing subsequent opioid-related adverse events. A total of 350 eligible individuals with nonfatal opioid OD presenting to one of four participating EDs will be enrolled and randomized to one of two arms: 1) site-directed care (SDC) or 2) Relay-peer-delivered OD education and treatment linkage, including 90 days of peer navigation. Outcomes will be measured for 12 months through interviews and administrative health data.
This is a pilot study that aims to develop good clinical practices to improve outcomes after an opioid overdose and transition of care from the Emergency Department (ED) into an Office Based Opioid Treatment (OBOT) clinic for patients with opioid overdose/Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). We intend to involve UVA Emergency Medicine and Medical Toxicology physicians with buprenorphine waiver or an interest in becoming waived at our institution to implement early initiation of buprenorphine protocol. We hope that this change in practice will result in better management of patients with OUD and opioid overdose, reduce relapse and improve engagement in addiction treatment. Subjects who meet criteria will be consented in the ED and receive a buprenorphine/naloxone induction protocol, prior to discharge and referral to the OBOT clinic. Subjects who consent to take part in this study will be entered in a database to track their involvement in treatment (s) at UVA and or any opioid related UVA health visits including OPIOID OVERDOSE.
This study aims to generate knowledge regarding the process of implementing naloxone within syringe service programs (SSPs), and to test whether external facilitation can improve implementation of naloxone within SSPs throughout the country. Together, these efforts can improve access to naloxone for people at high risk of overdose, thereby improving our nation's response to the opioid overdose epidemic.
