研究概览
简要总结
This cluster-randomized trial will compare changes in attitudes and knowledge on administering naloxone based on exposure to either a virtual reality educational training or the current standard educational trainings (e.g. on-line videos, printed information handouts) offered at local libraries. Individuals attending local library's naloxone training days will voluntarily complete an anonymous validated survey pre and post attending either the virtual reality or standard educational training.
详细描述
This study will utilize a cluster-randomized trial design. Entire libraries will be randomized to either offer community members the virtual reality training or the standard educational offerings (e.g. handouts, online videos). Volunteers will be asked to complete the brief, anonymous, and validated Opioid Overdose Knowledge Scale prior to receiving an education intervention (pretest) and then again immediately after (posttest). Neither participants nor investigators will be blinded. Library patrons who do not participate in the study will be offered current standard training materials. Regardless of the library's randomization, to either virtual reality or standard training, all patrons completing pre and post test surveys will have the opportunity to view the virtual reality training or other public health department materials.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Opioid Overdose Knowledge Scale (OOKS) From Pre- to Post-training
时间窗: Immediately Pre-Training and Within 1 Hour Post-training
Higher scores on the OOKS indicate greater knowledge on how to identify and appropriately intervene during an opioid related overdose, including proper use of naloxone. The tool has been validated with healthcare professionals and lay persons and used to assess changes in knowledge and attitudes after in-person naloxone trainings. This main outcome of this study is examining changes in the OOKS subscale for signs of an opioid overdose with scores ranging from 0 to 10.
次要结局
