Phosphatidylethanol as an outcome measure in treatment aimed at controlled drinking
PEth is a useful outcome measure that can be used to validate subjective reports of current drinking. In a treatment setting aimed at controlled drinking, the accuracy of patients' self-report measures seems to improve over time. In this context, a PEth value of ≥0.22 μmol/l is a sensitive and specific indicator of hazardous drinking.
