Skills Based Counseling for Adherence and Depression in HIV+ Methadone Patients - 1
CBT for Depression & Adherence in HIV Methadone Patients
Patients with HIV, depression, and opioid-dependence are at high risk for poor health outcomes. This is a two-arm randomized controlled trial of cognitive-behavioral therapy for depression and HIV medication adherence in patients with opioid dependence who are receiving methadone maintenance treatment. The project is based on our pilot work with close attention to NIDA guidelines for a staged approach to treatment development and testing (Rounsaville et al., 2001).
Depression is highly comorbid with both HIV infection and with opioid dependence. Depression and substance abuse are both associated with poor adherence to antiretroviral medications. Patients with HIV, depression, and opioid dependence are at high risk for poor health outcomes. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is the most widely studied and efficacious psychosocial intervention for depression; and research by the PI and others has shown that cognitive-behavioral interventions have been successful in promoting adherence to HIV medications.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
Symptoms of depression (i.e. low motivation, poor concentration, loss of interest, sad mood, suicidal ideation) that occur in the context of substance abuse or dependence can interfere with self-care behaviors necessary for maintaining HIV care, as well as interfere with potential benefit from an intervention that focuses on adherence alone. We hypothesize that teaching skills to cope with depression will improve the outcome from an adherence intervention to promote healthier living with HIV, in HIV+ opioid dependent individuals in methadone maintenance treatment.
Overview of Research Plan. Patients who are HIV positive and who are receiving methadone maintenance for opioid dependence will be randomized to treatment with either: (1) CBT, a combination of CBT for depression and HIV medication adherence, including a single session intervention for HIV medication adherence (Life-Steps, Safren et al., 2001) in conjunction with physician feedback regarding baseline study assessments or (2) the single session intervention for HIV medication adherence (Life-Steps, Safren et al., 2001) in conjunction with physician feedback regarding baseline study assessments. Participants will be followed for one-year post-randomization.

Percent Medication Adherence at 3-month Follow-up Assessment
時間枠：3-month assessment
|
Post-treatment assessment in adherence to HIV medication.
Doses taken were assessed by downloading information from the electronic pill cap and corroborated by participant self-report.
Adherence was calculated as the number of doses taken over the time period divided by the number of doses prescribed.

Clinician-assessed Depression Rating at 3 Month Follow-up Assessment
時間枠：3 month follow-up
|
Depression was assessed using the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) by a clinical interviewer blind to participants' study condition.
The scale ranges from 0 to 60 with 7-19 indicating mild depression and 20-34 indicating moderate depression.
