Brief Summary

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

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the ability of TOME to increase Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) and opioid-overdose knowledge in pregnant and postpartum persons.

Detailed Description

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

This is an intent-to-treat, two-arm, open-label, randomized controlled trial. Eligible participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to TOME or Control, balancing on site. Participants will receive the assigned intervention following randomization and will complete a three week follow-up assessment.

Study Groups

Personally-Tailored Opioid-overdose and Medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) Education (TOME)

Drug: Naloxone kit

Naloxone nasal spray (NARCAN) is a potentially life-saving medication that can stop or reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. This nasal spray is approved by the FDA for reversing OODs and has a favorable side-effects profile. A take-home kit will be provided to participants, which may be useful in the event of a future opioid overdose.

Behavioral: Personally-Tailored Opioid-overdose and Medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) Education (TOME)

TOME entails a trained RA: 1) administering a REDCap survey to assess an individual's opioid-overdose/MOUD knowledge; and 2) reviewing the personal feedback reports with the recipient.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Personally-Tailored Opioid-overdose and Medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) Education (TOME)

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The TOME intervention is a modified version of the personally-tailored opioid overdose prevention education and naloxone distribution (PTOEND) intervention (Winhusen et al. Evaluation of a personally-tailored opioid overdose prevention education and naloxone distribution intervention to promote harm reduction and treatment readiness in individuals actively using illicit opioids. Drug Alcohol Depend. Nov 1 2020;216:108265). Modifications include updating the knowledge assessment/education to reflect changes in the drug supply (i.e., the current high prevalence of fentanyl and increasing prevalence of xylazine) and the addition of items specific to pregnancy. Like PTOEND, TOME is a computer-guided intervention which utilizes REDCap to complete assessments and automatically generate personally-tailored feedback reports.

Control

Drug: Naloxone kit

Naloxone nasal spray (NARCAN) is a potentially life-saving medication that can stop or reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. This nasal spray is approved by the FDA for reversing OODs and has a favorable side-effects profile. A take-home kit will be provided to participants, which may be useful in the event of a future opioid overdose.

Behavioral: SAMHSA handouts

SAMHSA handouts: 1) "Opioid Overdose Prevention Toolkit: Safety Advice for Patients and Family Members"; 2) "Opioid Overdose Prevention Toolkit: Recovering from Opioid Overdose"; and 3) "Medication-Assisted Treatment for Opioid Addiction: Facts for Families and Friends". These handouts can be offered as physical copies or electronically.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Control

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants randomized to the control condition will be offered three SAMHSA handouts.
