Filter by:This study plans to enroll participants with opioid use disorder who are not currently seeking treatment to assess the effects of cannabis on opioid withdrawal and other related outcomes.
The purpose of this an open-label, randomized controlled trial study is to compare the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes/e-cigs) versus telehealth motivational counseling with combination nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) + telehealth counseling on combustible cigarettes smoking reduction among persons with opioid use disorder (OUD) in methadone and buprenorphine treatment programs (opioid use disorder treatment programs (OUDTP)). OUDTP patients are a population with exceptionally high combustible cigarettes smoking burden and yet limited success in achieving meaningful clinical outcomes in tobacco treatment. If effective, electronic cigarettes would provide an additional tool for tobacco harm reduction among this difficult-to-treat vulnerable population.
This study will examine the safety and efficacy of the O'Neil Long Acting Naltrexone Implant (OLANI) in persons with opioid dependency who are seeking relapse-prevention treatment. All participants will be treated in an open label manner. No randomization will occur. The OLANI is a long-acting biodegradable form of naltrexone which is implanted in the abdominal region. It is hypothesized that the OLANI will produce blood levels sufficient to block the effects of opioids for an extended period allowing patients to engage in psychosocial treatment and recovery over the long term. After the initial set of implants, participants will be offered a second set of implants after 13-24 weeks.
This study will compare in-person induction and maintenance dosing of sublingual buprenorphine to induction and maintenance dosing of sublingual buprenorphine through comprehensive telehealth sessions and telehealth medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD).
The Remote Methadone Ingestion Surveillance Trial (RMIST) will explore a potential method of methadone ingestion surveillance that may mitigate patient safety risks of take-home methadone treatment regimens while minimizing the risk of diversion and evaluating the acceptability and feasibility of these monitoring methods. The method utilizes an innovative existing technology.
The aims of the current study are to: Aim 1. Develop and refine a novel intervention protocol for individuals receiving medication treatment for opioid use disorder that assertively links them to recovery community centers; Aim 2. Determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of assertive linkage to recovery community centers relative to a matched control condition, via a pilot randomized controlled trial; Aim 3. Explain quantitative findings by gaining an in-depth understanding of the intervention's feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy via qualitative interviews.
Most newborns experiencing Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) require non-pharmacologic care, which entails, most importantly, maternal involvement with her newborn. To facilitate positive maternal-newborn interactions, mothers need to learn effective caregiving NAS strategies while they are pregnant, yet, an enormous gap exists in the early education of mothers on the symptoms and progression of NAS, in part because no interventions exist to prepare future mothers for the challenges of caring for their newborns at risk for NAS. In this project, the investigators propose to adapt an existing mobile NAS tool for high-risk pregnant women and assess its usability, acceptability, and feasibility in a small randomized controlled analog trial.
ED-initiated buprenorphine with brief intervention and facilitated referral to treatment has been shown to be highly successful in increasing treatment engagement rates and reducing opioid use among adults. It is unknown whether this intervention is similarly effective for adolescents with OUD. To rigorously examine this important clinical research question, it is first necessary to optimize this intervention for the adolescent population. In this R34 proposal, we will use the Assessment-Decision-Administration-Production-Topic Experts-Integration-Training-Testing (ADAPT-ITT) framework-a systematic method for intervention adaptation- to adapt (Aim 1) and test the feasibility (Aim 2) of a treatment strategy for adolescents that has been shown to effectively link adults with OUD to ongoing addiction treatment.
The primary objective of this study is to test the efficacy of a Motivational Interviewing and Educational Training intervention with immediate linkage to long acting reversible contraception (LARC) (hereafter known as MIET). MIET will be delivered to women of childbearing age (18-44) through the Meharry Addiction Clinic to women residing in Nashville, Tennessee. There are two aims associated with this study. The primary aim is to determine the efficacy of MIET, to promote insertion of LARC among young, urban dwelling, low income women living with OUD and at-risk of unplanned pregnancy. The primary endpoint of this aim are: 1) meeting with a provider regarding initial assessment for LARC, 2) having a LARC implant. Because of potential contraindication for LARC insertion (i.e. obesity) the first endpoint of meeting with a LARC provider is most proximal to aim 1. However, determining the number of willing women that go on to receive the implant is also critical in that it reflects potential decreases in cost to the health care system through reduction of unintended pregnancy and related subsequent NAS in the newborn. The second aim for the study is to utilize qualitative and quantitative data collected for the study to modify the MIET intervention to more effectively meet the needs of the women in the study. Survey data for the study will be collected at baseline, one and six months. Of note, the baseline, one and six month survey data collections will provide potential co-variates to consider in analysis of aim one and two. The primary endpoints however will come from the six month records review. We will gain consent to access records at the baseline consent, and will gather these data from the Meharry Electronic Health Record.
This preliminary study is designed to evaluate mechanisms by which excitatory dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) (vs. sham) and pharmacological stress (vs. placebo) alter behavior in non-treatment seeking individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD). Specific Aims are to (1) Evaluate how stress impacts domains of behavior including (1a) executive function and (1b) opioid-seeking behavior; and (2) Determine whether rTMS stimulation attenuates (2a) executive dysfunction, (2b) stress-reactivity, and (2c) opioid-seeking in individuals with OUD not receiving treatment.
