Alcohol Use Disorder Clinical Trial
Official title:
Developing e-Covery, an App-based Intervention to Support Individuals With Co-occurring Problem Alcohol and Opioid Use
This project aims to improve the health of individuals engaged in co-occurring alcohol and opioid use by supporting the maintenance of behavior change initiated in substance use treatment. Building on prior research, this study will entail a stage 1b pilot to test the feasibility and acceptability of an app-based intervention for individuals reporting co-occurring alcohol and opioid use. The intervention will involve modifying an app currently used in a research study to collect GPS information to send push notifications when individuals encounter self-identified place-based triggers. Thirty individuals completing substance use treatment will consent to use the app for a thirty-day pilot period and will complete assessments of intervention feasibility and acceptability. Using within-subject tests, the analysis will summarize participant responses to assessments and will compare the use of general messaging to place-specific messaging.
Co-occurring alcohol and opioid use is a public health issue in need of attention and has been linked to various health concerns, such as motor vehicle accidents and drug poisoning and overdose. Individuals engaged in polysubstance use face myriad challenges in sustaining recovery after completion of substance use treatment and return to use after treatment completion is common. One challenge faced by individuals in early recovery is how specific places can serve as triggers for cravings that can precipitate return to use. Smartphone apps have the potential to curtail the effects of such triggers by providing messaging (or "nudging") when individuals are in locations identified as triggers of return to use. To date, research on app-based interventions has yet to examine the effect of such "nudging" independently and has not looked at its effectiveness in addressing co-occurring alcohol and opioid use. This project aims to improve the health of individuals engaged in co-occurring alcohol and opioid use by supporting the maintenance of behavior change initiated in substance use treatment. Building on prior research, this study will entail a stage 1b pilot to test the feasibility and acceptability of an app-based intervention for individuals reporting co-occurring alcohol and opioid use. The intervention will involve modifying an app currently used in a research study to collect GPS information to send push notifications when individuals encounter self-identified place-based triggers. Thirty individuals completing substance use treatment will consent to use the app for a thirty-day pilot period and will complete assessments of intervention feasibility and acceptability. Using within-subject tests, the analysis will summarize participant responses to assessments and will compare the use of general messaging to place-specific messaging. ;
