Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This research project aims to determine the effectiveness of a comprehensive anti-stigma intervention in reducing stigmatizing attitudes and behaviours among Primary Health Care (PHC) providers toward individuals with mental illness and/or substance use issues (MISUI) in the Chilean context, using Centros de de Salud Familiar (CESFAMs) as the point of intervention.

Clinical Trial Description

The intervention model will be culturally adapted with CESFAM PHC provider and user input to be relevant and valid to Chile. The 18-month intervention includes five (5) components that are simultaneously implemented in CESFAMs: (1) Develop a Team of Local Champions in each intervention CESFAM, comprising PHC providers and users; (2) Analysis of Internal CESFAM Policies, Procedures, and Protocols to determine areas of improvement in service delivery for individuals with MISUI; (3) Raising Awareness of stigma toward MISUI using various forms of media within the CESFAM; (4) Innovative Contact-Based Education workshops on anti-stigma and recovery principles, co-lead by academic/clinical trainers and a person with lived experience of MISUI; and (5) Recovery-Based Arts, a multi-week arts workshop for PHC providers and users to produce artwork related to MISUI and recovery, culminating in an exhibition to showcase artwork for the CESFAM providers, users, and community. Due to Coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) sanitary context some of the interventions may be developed remotly dependind on each primary healthcare center needs and capability. This interventions will be implemented in years two and three of the study and the final year of the study is dedicated to integrated data analysis, a 6-month follow-up data collection, and dissemination of results. If the intervention proves to be effective, control CESFAMs will be provided with an anti-stigma initial training and protocols for intervention implementation. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
