Filter by:The pilot test of Centervention-ATOD, a customizable suite of online tools specifically designed to support quality implementation and sustainability of any ATOD-EBP within real-world service settings, will evaluate whether the product awards additive benefits in provider implementation proficiency and efficacy, quality of implementation delivery, and EBP (i.e., Free Talk or CHOICE) outcomes compared to traditional implementation methods. Additionally, a cost-effectiveness study will be conducted to assess whether the implementation support strategy (i.e., Centervention-ATOD) is more cost-effective than traditional implementation methods.
The purpose of this study is to test a prize-based contingency management intervention for increasing caregiver engagement in juvenile drug court and adolescent drug treatment, and for achieving the ultimate outcomes of reduced substance use and delinquent behavior among drug court-involved youth.
Developed from adapting and combining two evidence-based programs, Project CONNECT (a linkage-to-services program that targets barriers within the probation and substance abuse treatment systems) and TIES (a program that teaches family engagement skills to providers), Family CONNECT is a linkage-to-services program that targets both family and system-level factors to increase youth use of and retention in substance use services. Using Linkage Specialists embedded within probation departments, Family CONNECT will be implemented in two NYS probation departments. This proposed study will evaluate the impact of Family CONNECT on (1) youth referral from probation to substance abuse treatment, (2) youth and family engagement in substance abuse treatment, (3) youth enrollment/retention in substance abuse treatment, and (4) youth substance use and recidivism. Counts of youth referred, youth who start treatment, and youth retained in treatment will be obtained from the juvenile justice agency for 6-months pre-implementation of Family Connect (i.e. baseline) and during the implementation period of e-Connect; counts of youth recidivism will be obtained 6 months following the completion of Family Connect. This study will also identify family and probation organizational factors influencing Family CONNECT implementation in probation settings. 50 caregiver-youth dyads and up to 36 probation officers will be recruited as participants in the study. Caregiver-youth dyads will be evaluated at baseline, 2 and 6 months; probation officers at baseline, 6, 12, and 18 months; linkage specialists at baseline, 6, 12, and 18 months.
This research will adapt an evidence based intervention for alcohol and other drugs and evaluate its efficacy on Prescription Stimulant Medication (PSM) misuse in a web-based format for use with college students who have misused PSMs.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of Juvenile Probation Officers (JPOs) delivering Contingency Management (CM) to teens on their caseload who have problems with drug use. CM has already been shown to be effective at helping teens with drug problems but CM has never been delivered by JPOs. This study will test how well it works to have JPOs deliver CM during their regular meetings with teens.
To conduct an 8-week randomized trial evaluating the feasibility and efficacy of adding CBT4CBT to treatment as usual in a community based primary care program in a population of 60 individuals who meet current DSM criteria for substance use disorder other than nicotine.
This is a 4-phase study to implement the NIDA (Common Data Elements) Common Data Elements (CDEs) in primary care settings. The study will be conducted at three adult primary care clinics, in two large health systems. Each phase will include deliverables essential to move to the next phase, and an independent Advisory Committee will review progress and make recommendations at each transition about how best to progress to each subsequent phase. Based on progress during earlier phases, the Advisory Committee may recommend expansion to additional clinics or health systems during the second part of Phase 4. Phase 2 prepares for implementation of the screening and CDS tools as part of routine clinical practice. A key component of this phase is tailoring the screening and CDS tools through an iterative process of usability testing and adaptation of their design. In the KTA framework, this phase corresponds to the 'select, tailor, and implement interventions' step. Simultaneously, investigators will plan for implementation in one clinic of the MSHS system by identifying clinical champions, educating clinic leadership and staff, and conducting a workflow analysis to identify barriers and facilitators of implementation.
The purpose of this study is to address the needs for efficient and informative measurement for evaluating adolescent Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) strategies. The investigators will undertake a longitudinal cohort study to build and validate a substance specific measurement battery that includes patient-centered and intermediary outcomes which can be integrated into a range of healthcare and research settings. The results of this project will enable evaluation of SBIRT trials and clinical efforts by validating a parsimonious set of measurement tools that can be incorporated into electronic health records. The primary goal of the proposed project is to develop a set of brief, valid tools that will allow both researchers and clinicians to collect information that enables evaluating and refining brief interventions. The main objective is to define and disseminate a set of brief and easy to administer measures that accurately detect 1) substance use frequency, 2) substance-specific patient centered outcomes and 3) intermediate measures of impact of adolescent SBIRT. The specific aim addressed in this project is to develop and administer an assessment battery that includes novel questions assessing substance use to be validated against criterion standard measures both cross-sectionally and longitudinally.
This is a 4-phase study to implement the NIDA CDEs in primary care settings. Collecting and utilizing the CDEs in clinical practice requires a strategy for implementing screening to collect substance use information that populates the CDEs, and assisting primary care medical staff to offer appropriate interventions by providing clinical decision support (CDS) and a mechanism for making referrals to addiction treatment. Investigators aim to maximize the efficient adoption of screening, CDS, and treatment referrals by integrating all of these activities into the electronic health record (EHR). The study will be conducted at three sites, representing three large health systems. Each phase will include deliverables essential to move to the next phase, and an independent Advisory Committee will review progress and make recommendations at each transition about how best to progress to each subsequent phase. Based on progress during earlier phases, the Advisory Committee may recommend expansion to additional clinics or health systems during the second part of Phase 4.
This project will further develop and test the Tailored Telephone Intervention delivered by Peers to Prevent Recurring Opioid Overdoses (TTIP-PRO), a promising, low-cost, intervention to facilitate entry into medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals experiencing a non-fatal opioid overdoses (OOD). A prior small-scale pilot/feasibility study of TTIP-PRO (NCT02282306) found that the participating patients and the Peer Interventionists were satisfied with their participation, the intervention was acceptable, and the system for generating patient-tailored intervention information performed well. The overall goal of the present study is to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial of TTIP-PRO versus a control group. It is hypothesized that patients in the TTIP-PRO group will have more favorable drug-abuse-related outcomes than patients in the control group.
