Study Summary

The objective is to determine feasibility and acceptability of a text message (SMS)-based relapse prevention intervention as measured through: (1) study retention and SMS query completion rates and (2) participant ratings of PIER1 interest, perceived efficacy, and ease of use. Methods: A mixed methods study of adult (age \>=18) ED patients who seek treatment for opioids and have evidence of dependence based on Rapid Opioid Dependence Screen (RODS) score of \>3 and are being discharged to outpatient (community) resources. All participants receive standard of care in the ED, complete a baseline web survey, are asked to text with us for at least 7 days (up to a max of 28 days) and are asked to complete a follow-up phone call between day 8 and 14. Investigators expect preliminary findings to support a relapse prevention intervention delivered through SMS. Based on feedback from this mixed methods study, investigators plan to test a refined SMS program in a randomized trial.

Primary Outcome

Investigators will report the percentage of SMS queries replied to over 7 days.
