There is a pressing public health need to develop novel interventions that aim to reduce alcohol consumption and concurrent alcohol among hazardous drinkers with comorbid chronic pain. The proposed study will draw upon NIH treatment development guidelines (Stage 1) to translate and innovate past work to address a major public health priority. Specifically, we propose to develop (Phase IA) and pilot test (Phase IB) a brief, integrated, single-session, computer-based personalized feedback intervention (PFI) designed to 1) enhance knowledge regarding adverse pain-related anxiety-alcohol interrelations; and (2) increase motivation and intention to reduce hazardous drinking.
This study is designed to examine the efficacy of a brief intervention plus a cognitive-behavioral intervention compared to brief intervention alone to address unhealthy alcohol use and comorbid mental health symptoms to improve HIV outcomes among people living with HIV in Alabama.
The overall purpose of the proposed research is to increase patients' and general practitioners' (GPs') awareness of alcohol as a relevant factor for a wide variety of health problems in general practice, and enable earlier help and treatment. To achieve this, the investigators aim to test the feasibility of a pragmatic strategy for identification of alcohol-related health problems, and the feasibility of a web-based intervention between consultations, as a supplement to usual care in general practice.
Problematic alcohol use can lead to worse social and health related consequences for underserved minorities, requiring urgent intervention. By training underserved minority health professional students, this proposed project will develop and test the feasibility of an innovative and culturally tailored intervention for adults studying at a minority institution, with specific focus on alcohol screening, brief intervention, and referral of treatment (SBIRT). This proposal is expected to have a positive impact on alcohol reduction and prevention for minority communities
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an internet intervention for alcohol problems is more effective when delivered with assistance from a health care educator via e-mail during the first two weeks after randomization, as compared to simply providing the intervention without any such assistance.
Excessive alcohol consumption is a worldwide major public health problem. Brief interventions have shown to be an efficient treatment modality for problem drinkers, but have never been tested in scheduled surgery. Patients will be recruited in various surgery units in 7 hospital in France. All patients attending a scheduled surgery will be screened during the visit with the anaesthesist by the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT). Patients aged 30-75 with an AUDIT between 7 and 12, corresponding to at risk or harmful use, will be proposed to enter a control study and randomized between a brief intervention by a trained nurse during the post-surgery hospitalisation and no intervention. Twelve months after the surgery, a research technician will interview by telephone patients and evaluate AUDIT and alcohol consumption of the last month.
