Filter by:The investigators will conduct a phase I study involving 41 participants selected randomly among patients prescribed buprenorphine-naloxone for opioid misuse as a feasibility trial of the study of the Pillsy device. The study will track the effectiveness of the Pillsy technology and associated smartphone application by measuring adherence to buprenorphine-naloxone therapy and patient satisfaction with the application and the Pillsy device.
This study will be a prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) of Mindfulness-based Therapeutic Sailing (MBTS) versus a standard recreation therapy activity (bowling) among Veterans with psychiatric and/or substance use disorders. The specific aims of this investigation are to determine whether: 1. MBTS will result in greater pre- to post-intervention increases in psychological flexibility and state mindfulness than a standard recreation therapy activity (SRT). 2. MBTS participants will experience greater enjoyment of the activity than SRT participants. 3. MBTS will result in greater pre- to post-intervention increases in positive affect and decreases in anxiety as measured as compared to the SRT participants. 4. MBTS participants will exhibit improved outcomes, as compared to the SRT group, in the 3-month post-intervention period.
This project will pilot test a computer-assisted social network intervention, using motivational interviewing techniques, that can help case managers work with formerly homeless young adults who recently transitioned to supportive housing to reduce substance use and increase permanent supportive connections during this critical transitional period.
The investigators propose a Hybrid Type 1 effectiveness-implementation quasi-experimental trial. Participants are drawn from two different communities contemporaneously. The intervention participants in one community receive a Wraparound intervention. Comparison group participants drawn from a second matched community receive treatment as usual. With this design, the investigators aim to study outcomes associated with the intervention as well as explore important facilitators and barriers associated with the implementation and other factors associated with reach / participation, engagement and acceptability. Wraparound is a structured 12-month family-driven "process" that is guided by family goals, includes a team of supports to wrap around families, and coordinates care for families. Wraparound has been primarily delivered and tested with families of older-age children with severe emotional and behavioral needs in an attempt to prevent residential placement. The investigators are interested in testing the model in a sample of families (n=160) affected by substance use disorders who have children placed outside the home or are at risk of such placement. The investigators hypothesize that families receiving Wraparound will obtain better parenting and family functioning outcomes (primary outcome); child safety, permanency, and well-being; and parental recovery than families receiving treatment as usual. The investigators will also explore factors associated with higher levels of engagement and outcomes, including family characteristics, referral sources and hand-off, and similarly, explore barriers and facilitators associated with engagement and/or outcomes.
A pilot randomized control trial will be conducted attaching to the MedPAC services to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a Motivational Interviewing (BMI) interaction via instant messaging apps on reducing the drug abuse among youth in Hong Kong.
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).
This project will develop and test quality measures for and a facilitation model to help addictions treatment clinics increase use of medicines for opioid use disorders, retain clients longer in care, and help more people move into successful recovery. At the end of the project, we will have developed specific training and coaching protocols as well as electronic clinical support tools to guide quality improvement that can be disseminated within New York and the rest of the country. The study will test a clinic-level intervention that uses external facilitators to provide guidance to addictions clinics and contain three key components: 1) training on data driven management; 2) training and guidance on patient-centered care and OUD medication; and 3) electronic tools for shared decision making and patient progress monitoring.
Specific Aim 1: Conduct a pilot, small-scale randomized controlled trial to examine feasibility and preliminary efficacy of LTW, compared to TAU. Outcomes related to feasibility include percentage of eligible patients recruited, study attrition, study retention, and mental health and substance use treatment appointment attendance. Outcomes related to preliminary efficacy will include participation in screening, referral and treatment as well as reduction in mental health and substance use at 1 and 3 months post-study enrollment, compared to TAU. Specific Aim 2: Conduct a randomized controlled trial to examine the effectiveness of LTW, compared to TAU. Outcomes related to effectiveness include attendance to treatment as well as reduction in mental health and substance use at 1 and 3 months post-study enrollment, compared to TAU.
Tobacco and cannabis co-use is a common and growing public health problem, especially in states that have legalized cannabis. There are no pharmacologic treatments for co-occurring tobacco and cannabis use. Co-use may make quitting either substance more difficult, given the synergistic effects of cannabis and nicotine on neurobiological systems that mediate reward and shared cues reinforcing co-use. N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an FDA-approved medication and over-the-counter supplement, has shown promise in animal studies and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in reducing tobacco and cannabis craving and use.
This is a pilot study to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of incorporating a patient-facing reproductive decision support tool, MyPath, into existing clinical pathways in a SUD treatment program. This study will be conducted virtually in partnership with a single substance use treatment program within the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC). Aim 1: Assess the feasibility and acceptability of incorporating a patient-facing reproductive decision support tool (MyPath) into existing clinical pathways in a substance use treatment program. Aim 2: Assess preliminary efficacy of MyPath on reproductive health knowledge, self-efficacy, and decisional conflict as compared to usual care, as well comparisons between receipt of reproductive health services during the usual care period versus after implementing the intervention. The investigators hypothesize that the MyPath tool is acceptable and feasible for participants and their providers within a SUD treatment program. They also anticipate that preliminary efficacy data will show a positive correlation between the MyPath intervention and receipt of reproductive services, as well as increased knowledge and self-efficacy with decreased decision conflict. This pilot study will lay the groundwork for future larger trials in order to measure efficacy of this tool in substance use treatment settings.
