Summary

This trial will study if an online program can help decrease opioid use for hospitalized people with injection-related infections.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for English-speaking adults over 18 with severe opioid use disorder (OUD), currently hospitalized due to serious infections from injections, requiring long-term IV antibiotics. Participants must have at least two contacts for follow-up post-discharge.

What is being tested?

The study tests a new 'SmartIOP' program delivered remotely to OUD patients in the hospital. It includes intensive outpatient treatment and support from a peer recovery coach, focusing on improving outcomes after leaving the hospital.

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves non-medical interventions like remote programs and coaching, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience emotional or psychological discomfort during therapy.
