Clinical Trial Summary

Heavy alcohol use among young adults is a significant public health problem. Advances in technology may offer an innovative solution. This project will conduct the first controlled test of a feedback intervention for reducing drinking and improving health in young adults by targeting heart rate variability, resting heart rate, and sleep via biosensors and electronic diary methods.


Description:

Proposed is a study to conduct the first controlled test of a feedback intervention targeting heart rate variability, resting heart rate, and sleep for heavy-drinking young adults (N=60; ages 18-25) and will leverage the capabilities of a consumer-marketed PPG sensor/mobile app. This study will evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of this intervention for promoting improvements in drinking, sleep, and health.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Total drinks consumed Total drinks consumed will be measured using the Time Line Feedback Assessment. This tools asks subjects to self-report how many drinks they consume during a one month period. The score of this tool is dependent upon the amount of drinks consumed by the subject. Higher scores indicate more alcohol consumption for the given month. 10 weeks
Secondary Drinks per drinking day Total drinks per drinking day will be measured using the Time Line Feedback Assessment. This tools asks subjects to self-report how many drinks they consume during a one month period. The score of this measure will be determined by the amount of self-reported alcohol consumption that occurred each day. A heavy drinking day for a man would be =5 drinks per sitting and for a women it would be =4 drinks per sitting. 10 weeks
Secondary Percent heavy drinking days Percent of heavy drinking days will be measured using the Time Line Feedback Assessment. This tools asks subjects to self-report how many drinks they consume during a one month period. The score of this measure will be determined by the amount of heavy drinking days that occurred in the given month, for a man this would be =5 drinks per sitting and for a women it would be =4 drinks per sitting. A higher percentage in this category would indicate that there were more heavy drinking days for the subject this month. 10 weeks
Secondary Self-reported abstinent days Self-reported abstinent days will be measured using the Time Line Feedback Assessment. This tools asks subjects to self-report how many drinks they consume during a one month period. The score of this measure will be determined by how many days a subject abstains from drinking. A higher score in this area would indicate less drinking days for the subject this month. 10 weeks
Secondary Alcohol-related consequences Alcohol related positive consequences will be measured using the PROMIS Alcohol- negative consequences assessment and the PROMIS Alcohol- positive consequences assessment.
