Implementing Mobile Technology for Unhealthy Alcohol Use
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Alcohol Drinking
In brief
Scalable approaches are needed to support patients identified in the emergency department as unhealthy alcohol users and text messaging intervention approaches are a promising solution. However, the process of providers making text messing interventions for unhealthy alcohol use available to patients in an efficient way within already busy and overburdened emergency department workflows (i.e., implementation in real-world emergency department settings) and patients adopting them remains a new area of research. Study investigators will examine barriers and facilitators to the adoption of text messaging interventions for unhealthy alcohol use in emergency departments and use a stakeholder-engaged process to develop and test practical implementation strategies that could provide much needed support to patients who screen positive while reducing burden on emergency departments.
