简要总结
The objective of this proposal is to link inpatients to a certified peer support specialist through FAVOR-Greenville and determine the effectiveness of recovery coaching on patient outcomes.This study will evaluate the impact of initiating peer recovery coaching during SUD patients' hospitalization on engagement in recovery services, addiction severity, and quality of life compared to the current standard of care.
详细描述
The United States is in the midst of a drug overdose crisis: the rate of substance use, overdose, and substance abuse-related economic costs is rapidly increasing. Despite the prevalence of Substance Abuse Disorder (SUD), only 10% of SUD patients receive treatment. The initial link into care is often one of the hardest barriers to overcome due to wait times, complex systems to navigate, and fluctuating motivation. Hospitalization is often a time when patients are more receptive to SUD treatment. One potential effective treatment approach is peer recovery support services. Currently at Greenville Memorial Hospital, there is no direct link between hospitalization and outpatient care for patients with SUD, making it difficult to start or continue the recovery process. Thus, the goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of the initiation of peer recovery services during hospitalization on addiction severity and quality of life. By establishing a successful inpatient link to recovery treatment, this study may lead to the development of an effective method of care that can readily be implemented into the healthcare system.

研究组 & 干预措施
Standard of Care Control
Patients in the control condition receive the current standard of care, which entails a treatment referral with a list of addiction recovery facilities, groups, and resources. It is the patient's responsibility to call a treatment facility or group on the list and thus relies on self-referral. The medical team is not permitted to call a facility or group on behalf of the patient. The physician may counsel the patient on the dangers of substance abuse and addiction, but the extent of counseling is variable and dependent on the individual physician.
Recovery Coach Intervention
Participants randomized to the intervention arm are linked to a recovery peer coach while they are in the hospital. Recovery peer coaches are provided to the participant by Faces and Voices of Recovery (FAVOR) - Greenville. Recovery coaches are Certified Peer Support Specialists (CPSS), individuals who have firsthand experience in successful recovery and are trained in using recovery-oriented tools to help peers overcome addiction. FAVOR offers immediate access to a personal coach, a local center, and assistance to off-site intervention and recovery resources in the community. They provide twice weekly contact with participants.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Engagement in Recovery Services
时间窗: intervals of 1, 2, 3, and 6 months post-baseline assessment
Active involvement in recovery care services, including but not limited to Alcoholics Anonymous Narcotics Anonymous, individual counseling, methadone/suboxone program, etc. This information is obtained from self-report surveys administered by medical students in both conditions at both baseline and each follow-up.
Change in Substance Use Frequency
时间窗: intervals of 1, 2, 3, and 6 months post-baseline assessment
Frequency of substance use assessed using the 13-item Addiction Severity Index (ASI-Lite). The scale asks how many days in the last 30 days participants used each of several substances. The range of responses is 0 - 30 with higher scores indicating higher/greater severity of substance use.
次要结局
- Change in Self-Reported Quality of Life Assessment(intervals of 1, 2, 3, and 6 months post-baseline assessment)
