Predictors of Rapid Versus Delayed Onset of Opioid Use Disorder or Overdose After Alcohol Use Treatment
Both sociodemographic and clinical factors were predictive of a diagnosis of OUD/OD within a brief period; however, they were only predictive of approximately 40% of those who would develop OUD/OD within any specific period. These findings highlight the need for a more formal assessment of opioid use at treatment entry, and for the implementation of harm reduction measures throughout treatment.
