Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing digital health technology with opioid use disorder (OUD) patients as measured by a 12-week period of continuous assessment using smartphone surveys and digital sensing. In addition, we will examine the utility of 3 types of digital data (Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA); Digital sensing; and social media data) in predicting OUD treatment retention and buprenorphine medication adherence.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is an observational study designed to (1) evaluate the feasibility and utility of digital health technology in a Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) treatment population, and (2) capitalize on the availability of Electronic Health Record (EHR) data to relate passive and active sensing data to treatment retention and medication adherence.

Eligible participants are identified through EHR records, sent an invitational letter through secure message, and then called to recruit and screen. Following verbal consent to screen, research staff will perform a screening assessment over the phone/video to determine preliminary study eligibility prior to scheduling the baseline phone/video appointments. Following electronic signed informed consent, participants will be asked to complete an interviewer administered Baseline assessment. In addition to the screening and baseline assessments, the participants will be asked to wear a smartwatch and carry a smartphone continuously for a period of 12 weeks. Smartphone and smartwatch data will be passively collected. In addition, participants will be prompted to respond to questions through a smartphone (i.e., Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA)) 3 times daily for 12 weeks. In addition to the EMA prompts, individuals will be asked to self-initiate EMAs if substance use occurred.

After the 12-week active study phase, participants will be asked to complete a follow-up phone/video appointment.

EHR and medical claims data will be extracted 16 weeks after study completion (data will be collected 12 months prior to EMA start through 12 weeks after EMA start).

For those who consent to the optional social media component, social media data will be downloaded by the participant directly from the social media platform to a secure server using a remote desktop at the beginning of the study and at the end of the study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

EMA plus passive sensing

Participants will be responding to up to 3 ecological momentary assessments per day plus carrying a smartphone and wearing a smartwatch. Both the smartphone and smartwatch will passively collect sensor data continuously.
