Filter by:A randomized controlled trial will be conducted to investigate whether a proposed algorithm that adjusts the congruency ratio based on the user's performance and difficulty can enhance the effectiveness of approach bias modification. Methamphetamine users will be recruited and randomized into an algorithm group, a standard group, and a control group.
The objective of the proposed research is to conduct formative work to develop, pilot and refine a smartphone delivered intervention for violence affected people living with HIV utilizing a novel spatial-temporal methodology, geographical ecological momentary assessment (GEMA), to first identify the activity spaces and daily psychosocial experiences (mental health symptoms, substance use, self-efficacy, coping) impacting adherence and viral suppression, and apply them to intervention. Guided by an ecological perspective, the investigators will adapt Living in the Face of Trauma to a mobile platform with GEMA informed intervention targets. The resulting app shall be referred to as NOLA GEM. Our long-term goal is delivering accessible interventions informed by daily experiences that affect health for PLWH. The investigators will test feasibility, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of the GEMA-informed NOLA GEM app against GEMA alone on adherence and care, and secondary outcomes of mental health and substance use.
Substance use disorder (SUD) is a dynamic process that changes constantly over time with new trends of drug dependence emerge every now and then, thus timely information about trends in psychoactive substance use could yield tailored interventions and reduce potential harms. Identifying personal, social, and demographic characteristics of patients with this disorder at the local, regional, and national levels helps physicians, health authorities, and policy-makers detect early emerging trends and enable them better plan and implement prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation programs. This study aims to identify sociodemographic, personal characteristics, as well as patterns of illicit drug abuse in patients admitted for addiction treatment.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of a pharmacist-led intervention to expand access to medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) on racial/ethnic differences in opioid-related overdose among individuals diagnosed with opioid use disorder (OUD) currently incarcerated in a carceral setting. In this study, participants will be screened for opioid use, trained to administer Narcan nasal spray, receive motivational counseling and referral to treatment post-release from a carceral setting (a Re-Entry program) into the community.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether an integrated harm reduction intervention (IHRI), compared to harm reduction (HR) services as usual, will improve harm reduction service utilization among Black and Latinx people who use drugs (PWUD).
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of the Breaking the Cycle (BTC) and Maxxine Wright (MW) programs in substance-involved mothers and their children. One key difference between the two programs is that the BTC program contains an infant mental health component while the MW program primarily focuses on the mothers. The main questions the trial aims to answer are: - Do children at BTC demonstrate enhanced infant mental health compared to children at MW up to 2 years post-intervention? - Do mother-child dyads at BTC experience more decreases in child adverse childhood experiences (ACE), maternal stress, and mental health symptoms and have better home environment scores, parenting attitudes, and mother-child relationship scores compared to mother-child dyads at MW? - Are enhanced infant mental health outcomes associated with children's lower psychosocial risk scores and mothers with lower ACE scores, lower depression and anxiety scores, and lower maternal stress? - Are the associations between treatment dose and infant mental health scores mediated by parenting attitudes and the mother-child relationship? Does child exposure to psychosocial risk moderate the association between treatment dose and child outcomes? - How do the mechanisms of change lead to the effectiveness of BTC? What are the potential lifetime health and non-health outcomes of at-risk children at BTC? What is the long-term social return on investment (SROI) of BTC? Participants will complete several questionnaires at three timepoints while receiving services at either BTC or MW: during the intake phase, 12 months after their engagement in services and 24 months after their engagement in services. Given that the two programs serve a similar demographic of women, researchers will compare the BTC group and the MW group to establish the comparative effectiveness and mechanisms of change of the infant mental health component of BTC.
The purpose of the study is to compare a text message-based mental health and substance use screening and referral to a treatment program, called Listening to Women and Pregnant and Postpartum People (LTWP), to standard of care in-person mental health and substance use screening to look at rates of treatment attendance and retention in treatment. Participation would involve completing online questionnaires. You may be eligible to participate if you are age 18-45 years, are pregnant and entering prenatal care in one of MUSC's OB clinics, and attended a prenatal appointment at an MUSC clinic.
Detailed Description The doula-led intervention developed during the first phase of this project will be pilot tested for feasibility. Following the recruitment procedures described in the recruitment and retention plan, approximately 75 participants will be enrolled into the study. Twenty-five of the participants will receive regular doula care and 25 of the participants will receive care from a doula trained in the PMAD doula training throughout their pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum time period, following the intervention procedures developed in Aim 2 of this study. Twenty-five women will not receive care from a doula and will receive perinatal care as usual. Women in all groups will take surveys via REDCap during their enrollment in the intervention, at 1 month postpartum, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum (at the conclusion of the intervention). All participants who receive the PMAD doula intervention will complete checklists after each session with their doula, to assess fidelity to the intervention. Participant communication with their doula via patient notebook will also be assessed for fidelity to the intervention.
This study will test if a program called 'Bright Horizons' is effective at reducing binge substance use among adolescents. Bright Horizons is a culturally adapted intervention developed and tested through a partnership between The White Mountain Apache Tribe and Johns Hopkins University. Bright Horizons is a brief intervention that teaches emotion regulation, coping skills, and problem solving. The intervention also uses goal setting to reduce alcohol and other substance use and to connect to individuals with treatment.
This will be a pre-market, explorative, early feasibility, pilot, controlled clinical investigation designed to collect initial clinical data for Previct Drugs.
