研究概览
简要总结
This is a multicenter, randomized clinical comparative effectiveness trial (RCT) in which patients with untreated OUD presenting to a Northwell Health Emergency Department (ED), NYULH-Brooklyn, NYULH-Tisch, and Bellevue Hospital will be randomized (1:1) to be managed clinically through either a standard ED visit or an extended visit through ED observation (EDOU).
详细描述
In this hybrid implementation-effectiveness study, there is no direct research intervention. Rather, clinical care with well-documented effectiveness will be delivered at the discretion of clinical staff guided by clinical protocols for the management of OUD with MOUD (Medications for Opioid Use Disorder) introduced at each site prior to study enrollment. Enrolled patients will be randomized to ED vs. EDOU and to participate in assessments conducted at the index visit and at 30 days and 90 days. Patient level data will also be matched with Medicaid claims data for more robust analyses and to support the development of clinical quality measures.

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of participants who receive Emergency Department (ED)-initiated Buprenorphine (BUP)
时间窗: Week 1 (~7-10 days)
Receipt of ED-initiated BUP will be operationally defined to include administration of BUP and/or prescription for BUP as part of the ED/Emergency Department Observation (Units) (EDOU) visit. This measure will be abstracted from the health record primarily.
Proportion of participants who receive ED-initiated or ED-expedited BUP
时间窗: Week 1 (~7-10 days)
Receipt of ED-initiated/expedited BUP will be operationally defined to include the provision of a specific "warm" referral or transfer of care to a provider, clinic, or treatment setting with the capacity to administer and/or prescribe BUP within 24 hours of completion of the ED/EDOU visit. Eligible transition of care will be will described further in the Manual of Operations (MOP) and will include direct transport or handoff to an outpatient provider immediately from the ED, provision of an appointment within 24 hours (with a specific time and location), transfer to general inpatient or inpatient OUD/addiction treatment. Neither confirmation of a completed appointment (i.e., patient shows up and is seen) nor receipt of BUP at the dedicated follow-up appointment will be required as the patient and treating provider may elect to treat with alternative regimes (e.g., methadone, naltrexone). This measure will be abstracted from the health record primarily.
Proportion of participants who receive ED-initiated or ED-expedited Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD)
时间窗: Week 1 (~7-10 days)
Receipt of ED-initiated MOUD, inclusive of BUP, methadone, or naltrexone.
The proportion of participants who are successfully linked to formal addiction treatment within one week following the completion of their index ED/EDOU visit
时间窗: Week 1 (~7-10 days)
Successful linkage to formal addiction treatment will be defined as confirmed attendance at formal addiction treatment for OUD following completion of the ED/EDOU visit. Formal addiction treatment will be those treatments consistent with the American Society of Addiction Medicine's (ASAM) level of care (1-4) and will include a range of clinical settings, including office-based providers of BUP or naltrexone, Opioid Treatment Programs (OTPs), intensive outpatient, inpatient, or residential treatments. Means of confirmation will include direct contact with the facility and/or treating clinician or other objective means (e.g., medical record review).
The proportion of participants who are confirmed to be engaged in formal addiction treatment for OUD on the 30th day following the completion of their index ED/EDOU visit
时间窗: Day 30
Engagement in treatment for OUD will be defined as confirmed enrollment in formal addiction treatment for OUD on the 30th day following completion of the ED/EDOU visit. Attendance at two or more visits for formal addiction treatment within the 30-day period also constitutes engagement.
