Filter by:This study seeks to develop a tool to better guide and operationalize peer recovery coaching service delivery specifically for patients with opioid use disorder. This study will entail the initial development, acceptability, and validity of this tool in a sample of both peer support specialists (PSSs) and patients with opioid use disorder (OUD). This checklist will be adapted from ACE model PSS interventions for SUD broadly. Open-ended qualitative research questions regarding PSSs roles and responsibilities, patients' needs for recovery support, and perceptions of the checklist will be administered. Participants (PSSs and individuals with OUD) will also answer survey questions in which they indicate their satisfaction and likely to use the tool with the proposed services offered in the checklist. Outcome measures include satisfaction, perceived use of use, and perceived helpfulness of the checklist. We hypothesize that using both PSS and patient input will result in a validated intervention protocol with demonstrated acceptability using it with patients with OUD.
The purpose of this study is to measure safety and efficacy and to determine dose-response relationship for INDV-2000 in participants with moderate to severe Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) who are new to treatment, have recently initiated or completed short-term medically supervised withdrawal with transmucosal (TM) buprenorphine, and are interested in transitioning to a non opioid treatment.
This project is a pilot study to determine the feasibility and acceptability of a telemedicine intervention for substance use disorder service delivery in diverse people living with HIV in Alabama.
The investigator aims to conduct an open pilot study (N=12; 10 completers) to test the feasibility, acceptability, and credibility of an asynchronous web-based mind-body intervention (Toolkit for Resilient Life beyond Pain and Substance Use; Web-TIRELESS) for adult patients with a comorbidity of non-traumatic painful upper-extremity condition(s) (NPUC) and risky substance use. Deliverables: 1) Adapt and refine open pilot protocol, patient recruitment, and other study materials. 2) Assess the feasibility, acceptability, and credibility of Web- TIRELESS in preparation for a future feasibility RCT. Participants will complete 4 on-demand video sessions at their own pace (approximate pace of 1 session per week) and complete baseline and post-test assessments. participants may also partake in an exit interview to provide feedback on Web-TIRELESS to further refine the program and study protocol for future iterations.
Drug use, substance use disorders (SUD) and other addictive behaviors are problems of enormous socio-health impact that still require a great research effort to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures used in healthcare practice. Since addictive behaviors have been consistently associated with the presence of alterations in cognitive and executive functions, it is necessary to be able to detect, evaluate and have specific therapies for these dysfunctions and investigate, among other issues, the role they play in the onset and course evolutionary. After implementing neuropsychological evaluation techniques for diagnostic improvement, addresses the search for procedures that allow working on cognitive and executive deficits, as a specific therapeutic target. To characterize the presence of alterations in the domains that make up social cognition (SC) in patients with SUD and test in our healthcare units the ET® program already tested both experimentally and at beta level. It is an online self-training program for CS rehabilitation that includes modules for emotion recognition (RE), Theory of Mind (ToM) and attributional style (AS). To replicate the RCT carried out in schizophrenia in patients with SUD with difficulties in RE or ToM, in addition to searching for a biomarker or a pattern of them that predict the patient profile that will benefit from the training, using advanced LC-ESI proteomics techniques. MS/MS in saliva since previous studies in a population with schizophrenia, subjected to different neurorehabilitation therapies. It is also intended to subsequently improve the instrument (ET®) through the implementation of big data analysis and machine learning and the introduction of automated user management. At this level, the objective is to determine, after the first games, the type of game and the intensity required to improve the user's performance until it reaches normality. From the perspective of the State Plan for Scientific and Technical Research and Innovation, this project combines CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH, based on the evidence of scientific and technological knowledge, and the use of ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES of e-health in the area of Health Services. Health for people with SUD.
This study will adapt and test a culturally tailored, multi-component, and trauma-focused digital intervention to reduce the risk and effects of youth violence and substance use and bridge service access gaps for young Black males (YBM) in pediatric emergency and community-based low-resource settings.
Current clinical guidelines for medication assisted treatment (MAT) of opioid use disorder (OUD) recommend that treatment include a psychosocial component to help address psychological factors related to addiction. However, a knowledge gap exists regarding the most effective forms of psychosocial intervention and what interventions are most effective for different types of patients. This gap represents a significant barrier to the widespread implementation of effective office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) with buprenorphine, which is important to improving opioid treatment and responding to the critical needs of individuals living with OUD. The overarching goal of this patient-centered research is to address the diverse needs and preferences of OUD patients in regards to psychosocial approaches and to overcome the "one-size-fits-all" strategies that are typically used to treat OUD. Importantly, the investigators arrived at this goal, in part, through collaboration and consultation with former patients who have received different types of treatments for OUD. In this manner, patients provided important insight to inform the selection of interventions to be evaluated, patient characteristics that may differentially impact the effects of the interventions, and the patient outcomes to be examined.
The Collaborative Open Research Initiative Study (CORIS) is a groundbreaking international research endeavor aimed at exploring vital topics within the field of health professions education. At its core, CORIS embodies the spirit of inclusivity by opening its doors to contributors from all corners of the globe, putting the power of research into the hands of the global community and fostering an environment of open collaboration and meaningful contribution. We invite anyone and everyone to join as collaborators and suggest questions for inclusion in the survey, ensuring that the research process is enriched by diverse perspectives. As a collaborator, you will not only have the opportunity to actively engage in survey design, question formulation, and the entire research process from start to finish, but also gain the prospect of achieving valuable publications, which may boost your professional career.
This is an observational, retrospective & prospective cohort study. The retrospective element of the study is a chart review to identify people with diagnosed but untreated HCV and re-link them to care. The observational prospective cohort element of the study will examine the HCV linkage to care, treatment initiation, treatment completion & cure rates of these HCV clients achieved through this chart review and re-linking approach.
The focus of this study is the impact of usage of a mobile application to support problem-solving therapy on symptoms of anxiety, depression and substance use.
