Evaluating a Patient Decision Aid for Buprenorphine in the Emergency Department

This study is looking at a new way to help people with opioid use disorder (OUD) decide about treatment. Researchers are testing a "patient decision aid" (a tool with information) for buprenorphine, a medication used to treat OUD, when it's started in the emergency department. The goal is to see if this tool helps patients understand their options better, feel more comfortable with their decision, and if more people choose to start buprenorphine compared to usual care. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, have moderate-to-severe OUD, speak and read English, are not currently prescribed medication for OUD, and can access video/email after leaving the emergency department. The study is currently unclear about its recruitment status and plans to enroll 20 participants.
