Recovery Management Intervention in China
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to develop and pilot-test a Recovery Management Intervention (RMI) program for heroin addicts released from compulsory rehabilitation in China.
The project has the following specific aims:
Primary aims:
Aim 1. To engage key stakeholders in the local communities involved in supporting the transition of heroin addicts released from compulsory rehabilitation to the community; Aim 2. To identify potential barriers for participating in MMT in China; Aim 3. To develop and deliver educational/training materials on HIV risks, relapse prevention, and MMT; Aim 4. To adapt and develop the Recovery Management Intervention (RMI) program for heroin addicts released from compulsory rehabilitation in China; Aim 5. To conduct a pilot trial and obtain preliminary outcome data associated with RMI, relative to enhanced standard care.
Secondary aim:
Aim 6. To explore predictors of relapse and HIV/AIDS risk behaviors.
It is hypothesized that the intervention will reduce drug use relapse and the negative consequences associated with relapse, including HIV risk behaviors
