Presentation to emergency departments with intoxication as an indicator of alcohol use disorder.
In this retrospective study of 251 300 patient encounters at Veterans Administration Emergency Departments associated with alcohol intoxication per blood testing or ICD 9/10 coding, we found that 79% of these patients had positive Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Consumption screens within 6 months of their visit. Therefore, we propose that presentation to an emergency department with any detectable ethanol concentration should prompt intervention accordingly.

About the Journal
Alcohol and Alcoholism publishes papers on the biomedical, psychological, and sociological aspects of alcoholism and alcohol research, provided that they make a new and significant contribution to knowledge in the field.
Papers include new results obtained experimentally, descriptions of new experimental (including clinical) methods of importance to the field of alcohol research and treatment, or new interpretations of existing results.
Theoretical contributions are considered equally with papers dealing with experimental work provided that such theoretical contributions are not of a largely speculative or philosophical nature.
