A Bundled Intervention
A Bundled Intervention to End Opioid Overdose by Increasing Treatment Uptake Post Emergency Department Discharge
University of Alabama at Birmingham
190 participants
Feb 13, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Opioid overdose deaths have reached historically high records in the United States and are particularly concentrated among patients after emergency department (ED) discharge. Evidence-based treatment modules to reduce repeat opioid overdose and mortality are lacking in this patient population. A bundled intervention is proposed, including telehealth, peer support specialist, buprenorphine, and linkage for definitive care, that is designed to increase treatment uptake in this patient population post-ED discharge, reduce repeat opioid overdoses, and end overdose deaths.
