Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Abstinence from opioid useChange from baseline after a period of up to 5 years will be reported.

Self-reported opioid use in the time period since last assessment will be measured approximately every 4 months

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Recovery from opioid use disorder (OUD)Measured annually from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Participants will be asked to complete a self-assessment of recovery. Participants will rate their perceived success in recovery qualitatively

Quality of life measures-household chaos: CHAOSUp to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Measured by CHAOS, the Confusion, hubbub and order scale-short form. This is a 6-item scale which uses yes-no questions to measure the amount of household disorder. Higher levels of household disorder are associated with worse outcomes.

Quality of life measures - broad domains: WHOQOL-BREFUp to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Measured by the World Health Organization Quality of Life Assessment - Abbreviated Version(WHOQOL-BREF) which measures physical health, social relationships, psychological health and environment

Quality of life measures-adverse experiences: Holmes-Rahe Life Stress InventoryUp to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Measured by the Holmes-Rahe Life Stress Inventory which lists stressful life events that could contribute to illness. Higher scores indicate an increased susceptibility to stress-related health breakdown

Assessment of recovery and treatmentMeasured annually from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Completion of a Treatment Effectiveness Assessment, a patient-centered instrument for evaluating progress in recovery from addiction. Patients provide both numerical responses and representative details on their substance use, health, lifestyle, and community.

Quality of life-depression: Beck Depression Inventory-IIUp to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Measured by the Beck Depression Inventory-II which measures characteristic attitudes and symptoms of depression. Scores can range from 0-63 and higher numbers indicate worse symptoms of depression.

Quality of life measures-pain: Brief Pain InventoryUp to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory which rates pain severity

Satisfaction with medications received to treat OUD: Medication Satisfaction QuestionnaireMeasured annually from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Completion of a Medication Satisfaction Questionnaire for those receiving medication to treat OUD

Assessment of functional impairmentUp to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years

Measured by completion of the Sheehan Disability Scale, which is a 5-item self-report tool that assesses functional impairment in work/school, social life, and family life. Scores range from 0-30, and higher scores indicate worse impairment.

Quality of life measures-overall: Medical Outcomes Study, Short-Form- 12 (SF-12)Up to 14 assessments approximately every 4 months from Assessment 1 to Assessment 14 over a period of up to 5 years
