Study Summary

The escalating opioid overdose epidemic is one of the most serious public health problems confronting the U.S. Death due to drug overdose is a significant and rising cause of mortality and morbidity in Philadelphia. While naloxone is increasingly accessible to combat opioid overdoses, new responses to delivering naloxone to overdose events are needed. The proposed pilot project, to be conducted in Philadelphia, will pursue three specific aims: 1) Identify barriers and facilitators of acceptance and use of a smartphone-based naloxone intervention; 2) Pilot test the implementation of the intervention among 55 non-medical opioid users and 55 community members; 3) Synthesize knowledge acquired in Aims 1 and 2 to be used in a subsequent R01 study to conduct a large-scale, multi-site implementation trial.
