NCT04611659

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to test the efficacy of a Motivational Interviewing and Educational Training intervention with immediate linkage to long acting reversible contraception (LARC) (hereafter known as MIET). MIET will be delivered to women of childbearing age (18-44) through the Meharry Addiction Clinic to women residing in Nashville, Tennessee. There are two aims associated with this study. The primary aim is to determine the efficacy of MIET, to promote insertion of LARC among young, urban dwelling, low income women living with OUD and at-risk of unplanned pregnancy. The primary endpoint of this aim are: 1) meeting with a provider regarding initial assessment for LARC, 2) having a LARC implant. Because of potential contraindication for LARC insertion (i.e. obesity) the first endpoint of meeting with a LARC provider is most proximal to aim 1. However, determining the number of willing women that go on to receive the implant is also critical in that it reflects potential decreases in cost to the health care system through reduction of unintended pregnancy and related subsequent NAS in the newborn. The second aim for the study is to utilize qualitative and quantitative data collected for the study to modify the MIET intervention to more effectively meet the needs of the women in the study. Survey data for the study will be collected at baseline, one and six months. Of note, the baseline, one and six month survey data collections will provide potential co-variates to consider in analysis of aim one and two. The primary endpoints however will come from the six month records review. We will gain consent to access records at the baseline consent, and will gather these data from the Meharry Electronic Health Record.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • LARC Consultation

    Documentation in medical chart of patient accepting and attending a contraceptive consultation with a physician.

    Medical charts will be examined and data extracted at six months post intervention

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Receiving a LARC implant/insertion

    Medical charts will be examined and data extracted at six months post intervention

  • WHO Brief Quality of Life (QOL) Survey

    The survey will be collected at baseline, one and six months.

Study Arms (2)

Information Only

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Women in both the control and treatment conditions will complete a baseline survey that includes the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI),34 a contraceptive use survey,35 and the WHO Quality of Life-Brief (WHO-QOL-B).36 Women in the control group will be provided a color brochure with easy-to-read information about the advantages of LARC. Via this brochure, control group women will be provided no-cost options and corresponding referral information for receiving LARC.

Behavioral: Motivational Interviewing and Educational Training (MIET)

Motivational Interviewing and Educational Training (MIET)

EXPERIMENTAL

Women randomized to the treatment group will complete the baseline survey and receive the same brochure; however, they also will receive structured education regarding unintended pregnancies among women using opioids, potential complications associated with opioid, alcohol, and other drug use, and education on contraceptive use (with an emphasis on LARC). This structured education will be coupled with a brief, initial MI conversation. The interventionist will receive respective patients' MINI for opioids,37 contraceptive survey, and WHO-QOL-B from the research coordinator, and the answers to the survey forms will expedite the conversation around each woman's contraceptive desires.

Behavioral: Motivational Interviewing and Educational Training (MIET)

Interventions

Women in the intervention arm will receive a motivational interviewing intervention coupled with education on contraception and the potential for neonatal abstinence syndrome.

Model Details: One group will receive a behavioral intervention using motivational interviewing, and educational training on long acting reversible contraceptives, the other group will receive an educational flier on medication assisted treatment and contraception. The participants will be randomly assigned to one or the other condition, and both groups will consist of women, ages 18-44 with a current opioid use disorder that are currently being treated using medication assisted treatment.
