Official title
Recovery Initiation and Management After Overdose (RIMO) Experiment: Phase 2 Main Clinical Trial (R33)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study targets individuals in Chicago who have received naloxone administered by first responders within the past week to reverse an overdose, but who have not entered into MAT. Study participants will be recruited through partnerships with the Chicago Fire Department (CFD) and/or Police Department (CPD); first responders will be trained to seek consent from individuals who are alert and oriented after receiving naloxone for future contacts by research staff as part of the naloxone standard protocol. Those who consent will be contacted and screened for study eligibility ideally within one week of naloxone administration; eligible participants will be randomly assigned either to the control group, i.e., referral to MAT as usual, or to Recovery Initiation and Management after Overdose (RIMO), an assertive linkage and recovery support intervention. This intervention builds on an evidence-based intervention for treatment linkage, monitoring, and recovery support evaluated in 3 prior clinical trials by the study team.
