Active clinical trials for "Substance-Related Disorders"

Clinical study participation percentages haven't always been fully representative of a given demographic. The goal is to find out which aspects of a clinical trial may make it more difficult for patients to take part or see it through. The data will be evaluated through different demographic lenses and identify trends that could help improve the experience of future substance abuse disorder patients during clinical trials.

The study tests a structured referral process for opioid overdose survivors, from pre-hospital emergency care to long-term treatment of the individual's substance use-related disorder.

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: MBTS will result in greater pre- to post-intervention increases in psychological flexibility and state mindfulness than a standard recreation therapy activity (SRT). MBTS participants will experience greater enjoyment of the activity than SRT participants. 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. MBTS participants will exhibit improved outcomes, as compared to the SRT group, in the 3-month post-intervention period.

This is an observational, naturalistic study that aims to assess whether people with different histories of recreational or therapeutic illicit substance use (or no history at all) will differ in terms of their personalities.

This is an open-label, single center study of The Bridge in patients with sustained remission of opiate dependence on established, low-dose MAT with buprenorphine. A fixed number of patients will be admitted to the study.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a manualized in-hospital recovery coach intervention on rates of post-discharge treatment retention and alcohol use among hospitalized patients with alcohol use disorder.

Aims: To characterize the pattern of cannabis and tobacco use and withdrawal symptoms in people who start treatment for cannabis use disorders (exclusive cannabis, concurrent and/or simultaneous with various tobacco products) through an aplication game and considering the type of users. Methodology: Mixed-methods research composed of three studies. Study I: qualitative participatory action study aimed at exploring the experiences and preferences of the cannabis users on the use of apps. This information will be instrumental in the co-design of the app. Study II: prospective longitudinal study aimed to establish consumption patterns and transitions between substances and to validate the scale of cannabis withdrawal symptoms in the Spanish population. Sample size: expected RR=1.20, α =0.05, β= 0.20, losses= 20% (n=282). Study III: qualitative study to explore participants' experiences during the process of quitting cannabis and / or tobacco. Expected results: Characterization and prediction of variables that influence cannabis and tobacco cessation/ reduction and describe withdrawal symptoms according to consumption patterns with aim of improving the design of future interventions.

Self-esteem and family functioning are associated with mental health and success of drug treatment among individuals with substance use disorders (SUD). The Satir model aims to empower individuals to explore their internal resources, address emotional issues, shift coping strategies, enhancing self-esteem, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

The study will adopt a mixed-method approach. The quantitative phase will employ a randomized control trial (RCT) utilizing a pre-post study design. The qualitative phase will involve conducting semi-structured individual interviews.The data will be analyzed by using SPSS software package (IBM SPSS statistics version 26.0). The individual-interview will be analyzed by using the six-phase thematic analysis. The study has the potential to advance knowledge in the field of drug rehabilitation interventions, inform evidence-based practice, and improve the wellbeing and outcomes of individual with SUD. It can contribute to the ongoing efforts to address the complex challenges associated with substance use and support individual on their trajectory to recovery.

This is a community-engaged research project that aims to identify and pilot test interventions that may reduce substance use stigma among professionals at primary care sites serving patients who might be exposed to HIV or are living with HIV. Our goal is to develop a multi-level substance use stigma intervention that leverages 1) education and 2) organizational policy to address structural drivers of stigma and the stigmatizing professional attitudes and behaviors that affect patients. Hypothesis: the results of the trial pilot research and are expected to provide scientific evidence demonstrating feasible and potentially effective substance use stigma reduction interventions that go beyond simple individual-level professional training. We plan to build on the data from this pilot trial study to then further test the multi-level intervention in another larger trial study with primary care organizations to determine whether the intervention addresses multiple complex drivers of substance use stigma that influence HIV prevention and care outcomes among people who use drugs.
