Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a substance use disorder intervention delivered via a mobile application in an adult population during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study that will test the comparative efficacy of the mobile-app based substance use disorder program to reduce substance use relative to a wait list control condition, and explore between group differences on quality of life indices as well as retention and engagement during COVID-19.
This study explores the efficacy and feasibility of a self-management wellness intervention that is integrated, prescriptive, and trackable in a population of registered nurses in the state of Texas enrolled in the TExas Peer Assistance Program for Nurses (TPAPN). This 30-day wellness intervention (called "KickStart30") combines five wellness elements: exercise,mindfulness, sleep, social connectedness, and nutrition. Additionally, the program requires that participants implement 5 wellness interventions daily for the 30-day study, document daily online adherence, complete daily HERO (happiness, enthusiasm, resilience, and optimism) exercises to improve mental wellness, and complete online program forms before and after the 30-day intervention. Participants are assessed pre- and post-intervention to determine whether the intervention promotes wellness behavior changes.
This study is evaluating a randomized clinical trial and a quasi-experimental observational study combined. Pregnant women with substance abuse issues are referred to the Substance Use Treatment and Recovery (STAR) prenatal clinic, and those who consent to participate in the study will be randomized to the STAR + maternal Attachment Biobehavioral Catchup (mABC) home visiting model or to the STAR only treatment group. Those who opt out of receiving prenatal care at STAR will be recruited as a control group for the QED portion. Those randomized to STAR + mABC will receive additional supports from a licensed therapist, including up to 12 home visits focused on substance exposed babies and positive parenting.
Although there are many publications concerning the benefit of the interventions of the self-help movements and peer health mediators in psychiatry, no studies have described the intervention specific to patients with expertise in addictology (EP), nor evaluated their effectiveness. The objective of this study is twofold: identify and define the fields of intervention of EPs adapted to the specific needs of addictology patients. And validate, through a pilot study, the intermediate effectiveness of EP intervention. This EP intervention will be built on the areas of expertise defined in the first step. Intermediate effectiveness will be measured by patients' ability to manage their addiction. The first part of the study will consist of a preliminary qualitative patient-centered study to clarify patients' needs and expectations regarding the content of the EPs' intervention into a one addictology service of the university hospital of Bichat, Paris, France. This will make it possible to translate these needs into fields of expertise to address during the EPs' intervention and will result in the creation of a hetero-questionnaire. The second part of the study will consist of a before-and-after comparative study on inpatients who are their own controls based on the hetero-questionnaire constructed through the qualitative study. This study will identify the main EP's intervention fields in addictology in which EP are more relevant to patients. Thus, their inpatient interventions can be validated and improved, and better carried by addiction professionals.
The purpose of this research is to assess the analgesic and subjective effects of terpenes administered alone and in combination of THC.
This is a pilot study to test the feasibility of a recruitment strategy and study protocol to examine the effects of a dual target transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment in methamphetamine use disorder. The study will test intermittent theta burst stimulation (TBS) targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) combined with continuous TBS targeting the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) in people with methamphetamine use disorder (MAUD) who are engaged in psychosocial treatment. Intermittent TBS targeting the DLPFC is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for major depressive disorder, and continuous TBS targeting the MPFC has been studied in cocaine use disorder. We will administer this dual target TBS daily for 2 weeks, followed by three times weekly for 2 weeks, and monitor depressive symptoms, anxiety, sleep, craving, quality of life, and methamphetamine use for three months. Changes in functional connectivity of brain circuits will be evaluated with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) before and after treatment. We expect to observe changes in connectivity between the DLPFC, MPFC, and other regions implicated in addiction and impulsivity. Furthermore, we will evaluate if baseline differences in functional connectivity can be used to predict response. Psychological tests focusing on state impulsivity and risk taking will be administered, and we expect to observe reductions in these characteristics after treatment. We will test this protocol in 20 patients recruited from clinical care settings at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, University of New Mexico Health System, and University of Utah Health to illustrate the feasibility of recruitment and completing the protocol, to support an external funding proposal.
The primary purpose of this study was to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of buprenorphine/naloxone alone and buprenorphine/naloxone in combination with a single dose of ASP8062. This study also assessed the potential for pharmacokinetic interaction between ASP8062 and buprenorphine/naloxone.
The research project will focus on conducting a trial of whether a tailored SMS text-messaging intervention is efficacious in improving justice-involved youths' substance use or dual diagnosis treatment attendance and engagement.
This study seeks to gather data and insight on epidemiologic trends of loneliness and other behaviors in the wake of the CDC recommended "social distancing" during the COVID-19 pandemic. The objective of this study is to use a cross-sectional survey to assess the impact of COVID-19's associated recommendations (social distancing, self-isolation, and self-quarantine) on loneliness and psychosocial symptomatology (depression, anxiety, substance abuse) on young adults (18-35 years old).
The purpose of this research study is to look at the effect of programs aimed at helping people manage chronic pain and medication treatment. The program sessions focus on educational information and strategies for pain and medication management. The researchers enroll people who have chronic pain and have recently begun buprenorphine treatment to see if participants could benefit from these programs. This research study will help the researchers learn how to improve current therapies for pain and medication management.
