Filter by:Our proposed evaluation study is designed to evaluate the impact of a recently completed stepped wedge cluster randomized trial, conducted at Kaiser Permanente Washington (KPWA), of an intervention to improve care and management of patients with drug use disorders (DUDs) in primary care (Aim 1). We will also explore the reasons for any apparent gaps in DUD care by analyzing clinicians' free-text encounter notes using manual chart review, natural language processing (NLP), and/or NLP-assisted manual chart review, as appropriate (Aim 2). Specific Project Aims are as follows: Aim 1 The primary research question we address in Aim 1 is whether routine screening for drug use disorders in primary care (PC) settings increases DUD treatment. We define DUDs as including opioid use disorders (OUD), cannabis use disorders (CUD), and other non-alcohol drug use disorders (OTH). Previously published analyses indicate that the 22 PC clinics in this trial sustained very high rates of screening (88%) and a 3-clinic DUD pilot study suggested that this screening resulted in increased diagnosis of CUD and increased treatment of DUDs in general, even at relatively low observed rates of PC-based screening and assessment. Aim 2 The overall goal of Aim 2 is to expand our understanding of gaps in DUD diagnosis and treatment that persist-despite implementation of high rates of PC screening and assessment for SUDs-using rich information available only in free-text chart notes. Through analysis of relevant chart notes Aim 2 of this project will descriptively characterize gaps in DUD diagnosis and DUD treatment (i.e., instances where information in a patient's record suggests a DUD could be diagnosed but no diagnosis is present, or a new diagnosis suggest treatment is indicated but no evidence of treatment is present), and characterize reasons for DUD care gaps.
The goal of this multi-site observational cohort study is to link electronic health records (EHR) with novel data sources to examine insurance instability and its association with all-cause and overdose mortality in adult patients who received medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). The main objectives of the study are: - Objective 1. Perform data linkage of a cohort of patients who received MOUD with the National Death Index using a probabilistic algorithm for matching records to ascertain fact and cause of death relative to treatment and insurance status. - Objective 2: Assess the association of insurance instability and risk of death, including all-cause mortality and drug- and alcohol-related overdose mortality.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate an intervention strategy in introducing screen/evaluate/treat (SET) procedures for HIV/ hepatitis C/ and Opioid Use Disorder in Primary Care Clinics in West Virginia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the barriers and facilitators to integrating evidence based practices for screening and treatment of HIV, hepatitis C, and Opioid Use Disorder into primary care clinics in West Virginia? - To assess the extent to which our SET processes are achieved through enhanced EHR tools, NIATx (formerly known as Network for the Improvement of Addiction Treatment) facilitation and Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO)-supported collaborative learning? - Does implementing these services improve primary and secondary health outcomes for patients? Primary Care Clinics will participate in training and process improvement coaching to integrate these services. Using a step-wise design, 20 Primary Care Clinics will undergo the training and coaching in four groups of five clinics.
The MEDIUM study (U01DA045384) is a cluster-randomized trial based in Ukraine. The main goal of the study is to test the implementation strategies for mental health treatment services in OAT clinics. The study enrolled 12 OAT clinics from 12 geographically and epidemiologically diverse regions and randomized them 1:1:1 to three implementation arms: standard of care (SoC), ECHO facilitation, and ECHO plus pay-for-performance (P4P) incentives. Project ECHO, is an evidence-based telehealth intervention, connecting clinicians with national experts for short thematic didactic sessions and case discussions. All sites are provided with a modified Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment (mSBIRT) intervention manual for mental disorders and regular supply of two selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) medications. All current and new patients at participating sites (N~2000 at study start) are automatically eligible for SSRI prescription. The main outcomes of the study are the elements of mental health continuum of care (screening, diagnosis, treatment and retention). These outcomes are assessed in the entire patient population using de-personalized data extracted from the electronic medical record system. A sub-sample of patients (N=1,350) was recruited into a cohort and consented to assess prevalence and severity of mental disorders, various factors related to the uptake of and retention in mental health treatment (addiction severity, other substance use, co-morbidities), as well as other important covariates. These assessments are done at baseline, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after enrollment.
The proposed project seeks to use public health and clinical data on opioid use disorders (OUD) outcomes for mother and infants, which is the leading cause of death to mothers one year after deliver and can lead to neonatal withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) and other poor outcomes. Insufficient or incomplete data about OUD and lack of integrated programs for OUD treatment during pregnancy can be barriers to providing optimal care to mothers and infants.
The goal of phase 1 is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of an intervention ('Rapid PrEP Access') providing people who use drugs (PWUD) one-time access to HIV self-testing at the Victory Program. Aim 1: To offer HIV self-testing to PWUD in the community through a study called 'Rapid PrEP Access'. The study will be carried out at the Victory Program. Aim 2: To determine the feasibility and acceptability of 'Rapid PrEP Access' at the Victory Program.
Contingency management (CM) is a behavioral intervention that involves incentivizing participants for target behaviors in a clinical setting. When applied to the treatment of substance use disorders, it has demonstrated efficacy in reducing the number of urine toxicology screens positive for illicit substances and increased engagement in treatment programs. However, there is a need to translate CM treatment to primary care settings. This study will implement and assess a CM program for patients with opioid use disorder, with or without comorbid stimulant use disorder, initiating outpatient addiction medicine services at a family medicine residency clinic. Eligible patients will earn monetary incentives for attending addiction medicine appointments and abstaining from substances during outpatient treatment. Data gathered from this pilot program will be used to improve patient outcomes, treatment, and retention for persons receiving medications for opioid use disorder (MOUDs) in a primary care setting.
The DIGITS Trial addresses a critical knowledge gap: How to best implement digital treatments for opioids and other substance use disorders in primary care. The DIGITS Trial is a partnership between Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute (KPWHRI) in Seattle, and Kaiser Permanente Washington, a healthcare delivery system in Washington State. In this study, the FDA-authorized reSET and reSET-O digital therapeutics will be implemented in Kaiser Permanente Washington primary care clinics. The study will evaluate the extent to which two implementation strategy interventions, health coaching and practice coaching, improve the implementation. Primary care clinics are randomized to receive these implementation strategy interventions. Each clinic will have a 12-month active implementation period beginning on its date of randomization. To study the continued use of reSET and reSET-O after the active implementation period is completed, a sustainment period of up 12 months will follow the active implementation period.
This study aims to analyze the needs of those who have lost a loved one to opioid-related death and/or those currently supporting a loved one in treatment for Opioid Use Disorder. Mental health status related to the death or support of a loved one will be assessed through a survey and through the use of several modules of the CAT-MH (computerized adaptive testing-mental health suite) questionnaire.
This study is a multi-site, randomized pragmatic trial being conducted at three diverse sites. The study, called the Substance Use Treatment and Recovery Team (START), will evaluate whether a collaborative care team increases the use of two interventions-medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD), and opioid use disorder (OUD) focused discharge planning-among hospitalized patients with OUD, and improves linkage to follow-up care relative to usual care. The START consists of an addiction medicine specialist and a care manager who will use evidence-based tools to decrease barriers to MOUD and engage patients with post-discharge OUD care. A total of 414 patients will be randomized from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, the University of New Mexico Hospital in Albuquerque, and Baystate Health in Springfield, Massachusetts to receive either START or usual care, stratifying by prior MOUD exposure and site.
