Brief Summary:
Although substance abuse treatment continuing care participation is strongly related to positive treatment outcomes participation rates are low and few interventions have been developed that improve continuing care adherence and outcome
Detailed Description:
Background
Although substance abuse treatment continuing care participation is strongly related to positive treatment outcomes participation rates are low and few interventions have been developed that improve continuing care adherence and outcome
Objectives
The objectives of the study were 1 to compare the effectiveness of an aftercare intervention consisting of a participation contract attendance prompts and attendance reinforcers CPR to a standard treatment STX on adherence to therapy and 2 to assess the effects of this intervention on treatment outcome
Methods
We recruited 150 veterans from the Salem VAMCs SARRTP who could participate in aftercare Our population is similar to those in other VAs 97 male 54 Caucasian 46 minority 49 years mean age 44 alcohol dependent only 56 drug dependent and 44 with a dual diagnosis In this randomized clinical trial treatment adherence and outcome were measured at baseline and 3- 6- and 12-months after participants entered treatment using interviews questionnaires alcohol and drug screens VA medical records and therapist ratings The study design is a repeated measures nested cohort design with an intervention and a standard care group The primary outcome abstinence rate will be analyzed using a logistic regression model in which the parameters of interest are estimated using Generalized Estimating Equations GEE
Status
Participant recruitment and follow-up interviews were completed in June 2003 and August 2004 respectively The HSRD final report was submitted in April 2005 The main results paper and additional papers will be submitted for publication in 2005
