Study Summary

This trial studies how substance cravings, behavior, and physical markers respond to wearable tech/questionnaires for people with substance use disorder. It'll look at how peer support affects outcomes.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults over 18 with substance use disorders who are currently or were previously treated at a WVU Medicine Clinic, or residents of sober living facilities. Participants must be able to consent and download the required health app and wearable device apps on their smart devices.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study aims to predict relapse in individuals with substance use disorder using machine learning technology that analyzes data from wearables like Oura rings, smartwatches, and responses on the RNI Health app. It also tests if peer recovery interventions can prevent relapse when prompted by abnormal biomarkers.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves monitoring through technology and peer support rather than medication, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience privacy concerns or emotional discomfort.

Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: PRSS interventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants receiving PRSS intervention will be contacted by the PRSS who will be blinded (not knowing whether an alert was caused by data anomaly or a random generation), and will contact the participant by phone and assess the need for assistance. PRSS will follow-up with the participant to assist participant if needed (once after the initial alert and then a second follow-up).

Group II: Treatment as usualActive Control1 Intervention

Participants will receive standard of care treatment as usual and will receive no contact from a peer recover support specialist (PRSS intervention) when data anomalies are detected by machine learning algorithms.
