Brief Summary

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

This study evaluates the efficacy of a serious game to teach students how to recognize and respond to opioid overdose

Detailed Description

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

This study uses an interactive realistic film depicting an opioid overdose to teach high school/middle school students how to recognize and respond to opioid overdose. The film features a person who finds their friend unresponsive, with evidence of opioid use. The unresponsive friend demonstrates signs of opioid overdose. The hero must recognize opioid overdose, administer naloxone (opioid antedote) and perform CPR. The film is made interactive by the narrator pausing the action of the film, and asking learners to answer questions/make choices.

Efficacy is tested on the day of training, and 2-4 months later. Efficacy is measured by student ability to correctly administer naloxone to a manikin, perform CPR, and answer knowledge questions about opioid overdose. Other studied metrics include student engagement/enjoyment, attitudes/biases, and emotions created by the training. These will be tested through validated questionnaires.
