Involuntary discharge from drug or alcohol treatment programs in Vancouver, Canada.
Background: Retention in substance use treatment is essential to treatment success. While programmatic factors are known to influence retention, less is known about the role of involuntary discharges from drug or alcohol treatment programs. Therefore, we sought to identify the prevalence of and factors associated with involuntary discharge due to ongoing substance use.
Methods: Data were derived from two community-recruited prospective cohort studies of people who use drugs in Vancouver, Canada. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) analyses were used to identify variables associated with involuntary discharge from treatment programs due to ongoing substance use.
Results: Between June 2017 and March 2020, 1487 participants who accessed substance use treatment and completed at least one study interview were included in this study. Involuntary discharge from a treatment program due to ongoing substance use was reported by 41 (2.8%) participants throughout the study, with 23 instances reported at baseline and another 18 reported during study follow-up. In a multivariable GEE analysis, involuntary discharge was positively associated with homelessness (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] = 3.22, 95% Confidence Interval [95% CI]: 1.59-6.52), daily injection drug use (AOR = 1.87, 95% CI 1.06-3.32) and recent overdose (AOR = 2.50, 95% CI 1.38-4.53), and negatively associated with age (AOR = 0.93, 95% CI 0.90-0.96). In sub-analyses, participants have most commonly been discharged from in-patient treatment centres (52.2%), recovery houses (28.3%) and detox programs (10.9%), and for using heroin (45.5%) and/or crystal methamphetamine (36.4%).
Conclusions: While involuntary discharge was a relatively rare occurrence, those who were discharged due to active substance use possessed several markers of risk, including high-intensity injection drug use, homelessness, and recent non-fatal overdose. Our findings highlight the need for increased flexibility within treatment programs to account for those who re-initiate or continue to use substances during treatment.
期刊介绍：
Harm Reduction Journal is an Open Access, peer-reviewed, online journal whose focus is on the prevalent patterns of psychoactive drug use, the public policies meant to control them, and the search for effective methods of reducing the adverse medical, public health, and social consequences associated with both drugs and drug policies. We define "harm reduction" as "policies and programs which aim to reduce the health, social, and economic costs of legal and illegal psychoactive drug use without necessarily reducing drug consumption". We are especially interested in studies of the evolving patterns of drug use around the world, their implications for the spread of HIV/AIDS and other blood-borne pathogens.
