Filter by:The objective of this pilot intervention study is to iteratively refine motivational interviewing and psychosocial intervention programs delivered via telehealth (Teletx) to help improve substance use and other related outcomes in SUD patients who are not receiving SUD care. We will examine feasibility and acceptability of these pilot psychosocial programs in a total of n=50 participants. The goal is to refine the programs to improve acceptability and feasibility and collect preliminary data for a future fully powered randomized controlled trial (RCT) in the future. In addition to study sessions, participants that are enrolled in the study will complete surveys prior to, during, and after treatment.
The purpose of this pilot trial is to determine the feasibility of integrating exercise and psychotherapy that is specifically targeted to reducing and managing pain into residential drug treatment programs. The investigators will evaluate the feasibility (adherence) of integrating 'assisted' rate cycling, voluntary rate cycling and psychotherapy for pain (I-STOP) in participants with an opioid use disorder (OUD) and pain enrolled in residential drug treatment programs. The investigators will also explore the potential effects of 'assisted' rate cycling, voluntary rate cycling and I-STOP on pain, cravings, depression, anxiety, weight and sleep.
This project seeks to develop and test the acceptability, appropriateness and feasibility of uTECH, a novel social media "big data" machine learning intervention for HIV-negative substance-using sexual and gender minority people who have sex with men that aims to reduce HIV transmission risk by integrating biomedical and behavioral risk reduction strategies, including pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention and medication assisted treatment (MAT) for substance use harm reduction
The investigators propose to develop and evaluate optimal combinations of evidence-based interventions to improve HIV outcomes and reduce methamphetamine use (hereafter: meth use) among people with opioid use disorder who are in methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) in Vietnam. Over the past decade, the expansion of MMT has contributed to stemming both HIV and opioid epidemics. However, rising meth use threatens these achievements. Evidence-based interventions such as Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Contingency Management, Matrix Model, and SMS reminders are effective in reducing meth use. The study will be conducted in the two largest cities in Vietnam, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), where there are the highest number of MMT patients and the highest burden of HIV cases. Building on the pilot work of the research team in Hanoi, through collaborative work with local MMT providers and patients, the investigators will first further refine adapted EBIs to develop adaptive strategies. The adaptive design includes: (1) Two frontline interventions: 6 weeks of contingency management then 6 weeks of weekly group educational sessions and 12 weeks of contingency management; (2) One (short-term) tailoring outcome: urine tests negative with meth metabolites in both week 11 and 12 are considered responsive to frontline interventions; (3) Three alternative interventions: those with positive outcomes will move to 12-week maintenance stage and receive two daily SMS reminders plus one weekly self-monitoring assessment messages. Non-responders will move to 12-week enhanced treatment stage and are randomly assigned to either Matrix group counseling only or Matrix group counseling plus contingency management. The full randomization trial will be conducted with 200 HIV-positive and 400 HIV-negative MMT patients who report moderate- and high-risk meth use on self-screening with ASSIST or have urine positive with meth metabolites. In each location, the study will stratify participants by HIV status before randomizing them to one of two frontline interventions. Primary outcomes - including HIV viral suppression, HIV risk behaviors, and meth use (reported and urine tests) - will be assessed at 12, 24 and 48 weeks. The study team also conducts ethnographic observations and in-depth interviews with MMT clinic managers, clinical staff and MMT patients to explore implementation barriers and facilitators.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of a psychoeducational intervention program, Illness Management and Recovery (henceforth abbreviated as IMR), when administered to inpatient forensic mental health patients. IMR is a treatment program that can be administered in both a group and an individual format. It is designed for persons suffering from severe mental health problems and has two principal aims: 1. promoting participants´ capacity to manage and alleviate symptoms and functional impairment and 2. helping participants in formulating and attaining subjectively meaningful recovery goals. Forensic mental health inpatients receiving this treatment will be compared to patients who receive treatment as usual on a variety of outcome measures, such as clinician and self-rated levels of symptoms, function and perceived levels of hope. Furthermore, clinicians' experiences of working with the intervention will be investigated using a structured questionnaire regarding implementation processes and through an interview protocol. The study has 3 objectives: 1. Investigating the effects of the treatment on the chosen outcome measures. 2. Investigating the effects of potential moderators on treatment outcome. These moderators include: pre-treatment functional status measured by self and informant report, neuropsychological performance and pre-admission indicators of presence of criminogenic risk factors and everyday functioning. 3. Investigating the experiences of staff working with the intervention, through the lense of Normalization Process Theory.
This Quality Improvement (QI) project for physician education will build on an existing platform, CHADIS (Comprehensive Health and Decision Information System; www.CHADIS.com). We plan to further develop and test innovations that will assist primary care providers (PCPs) in addressing the serious morbidity of teen substance use during routine check-up visits and follow up care using a new Module of CHADIS that facilitates guideline-based care. The CHADIS c-SBI (computer-facilitated Substance screening and provider Brief Intervention) Module will include pre-visit screening tools that cover substance use and strengths and goals. It will also include reminders to the patient about their goals and commitments for change and a teleprompter for interview hints for the PCP. These hints will be aimed at enhancing a patient focused discussion of individual strengths and barriers related to the teens' goals in a motivational interviewing style.
An experiment to test the effectiveness of providing monetary bonuses to staff for achieving pre-defined performance targets regarding the implementation of a motivational interviewing-based brief intervention for substance use.
This purpose of this study is to use the existing infrastructure and therapeutic relationships developed by Early Intervention, a national system of child development programs, to make an evidence-based intervention for parents with substance use disorder, Mothering from the Inside Out, more readily accessible to postpartum women with substance use disorder. This study will assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of the intervention in a pilot randomized controlled trial. We will also identify key implementation domains that impact successful delivery. We hypothesize that the intervention will be feasible and acceptable to the study participants.
HOMER is a national study comparing three methods of induction for Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) for Opioid Use Disorder (OUD); home versus office versus telehealth-based inductions. This study will help determine if certain patient and practice characteristics make patients better candidates for one method over the others. Results will help fill a gap in the evidence around effectively treating OUD with MAT in primary care settings.
The purpose of this study is to develop and then test an enhanced version of the parent study's collaborative care intervention for co-occurring disorders (CC-COD) to reduce the risk of suicide and overdose among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) in combination with PTSD/depression. The parent study is CLARO, Collaboration Leading to Addiction Treatment and Recovery from Other Stresses (NCT04559893).
