CHANGING DEFINITION OF SUD

National Institute of Drug Abuse: Addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug seeking and use, despite harmful consequences. It is considered a brain disease because drugs change the brain; they change its structure and how it works. These brain changes can be long lasting and can lead to many harmful, often self-destructive, behaviors. ASAM: Addiction is a primary, chronic disease of brain reward, motivation, memory and related circuitry. Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological, psychological, social and spiritual manifestations. This is reflected in an individual pathologically pursuing reward and/or relief by substance use and other behaviors. Unbroken Brain (Szalavitz): Addiction is a developmental learning disorder

SUD PREVALENCE AND COST

22.7 million individuals in the US with a SUD 2.5 million received treatment Of the 20.2 million people that did not receive treatment, 19 million did not think they needed it. Total social cost of alcohol and drug misuse is $700 billion annually

WHAT IS CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT

An integrated care approach to managing illness which includes screenings, check-ups, monitoring and coordinating treatment, and patient education. It can improve quality of life while reducing health care costs by preventing or minimizing the effects of a disease. Elements*:

  • Healthcare delivery system redesign towards preventative care
  • Healthcare organizational support/organizational leadership and

resources

  • Expert informed decision support
  • Improve information systems to track and coordinate care
  • Fostering patient self-management through coaching, problem

solving and peer support

  • Linking patients to community by enhancing access to community

resources

COLLABORATIVE CARE MODEL FOR SUD

Team driven: Multidisciplinary team includes PCP, SUD care coordinator, mental health, social worker, nurse, etc. as indicated Population focused: Team responsible for the provision of care and health outcomes of defined population Measurement guided: Team uses disease-specific as well as patient reported outcome measures to drive clinical decision making Evidenced-based: Team employs scientifically proven interventions to achieve improved health outcomes

POPULATION HEALTH

  • A systematic effort to improve health outcomes in sub-

populations that share multiple clinical and social attributes

  • Reflects the interdependence of biology, behaviors, social,

cultural, economic and environmental factors that impact well- being

  • Compels providers to envision and develop organized and

integrated systems that deliver the Quadruple Aim:

SLIDE 23

POPULATION HEALTH

A systematic effort to improve health outcomes in sub- populations that share multiple clinical and social attributes

  • Patient registries
  • Reviewing data in the aggregate (e.g. patients over 50 or

under 25, patients w/history of incarceration, Pacific Islander patients, etc.)

  • Reviewing health outcomes and distributions within a

population

  • Reviewing patterns of determinants of the outcomes

POPULATION HEALTH

Reflects the interdependence of biology, behaviors, social, cultural, economic and environmental factors that impact well-being

  • Efforts to improve population health must address the social

determinants of health

  • Such efforts should be focused on both improving the health
  • f individual patients as well as changing/improving the social

conditions that may impede health improvement

MEASURE

Patient outcome measures: Must be collected frequently to accurately assess recent clinical picture Must be reliable and sensitive to change Must be relatively simple and low cost to implement Must include patient-reported (not just clinician reported) data Should be tightly correlated to diagnosis

WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM PRIMARY CARE

Team based care

  • Medical provider, licensed mental health professional, AOD

professional, client

  • Client key member of team
  • Each member works to the top of their scope of practice
  • Huddles

Quality improvement strategy

  • Routine performance measurement to identify opportunities

for rapid cycle improvement

  • Use of patient experience data to inform practice
  • Population health management

THE FACES OF FASD

FASD is an umbrella term describing the range of effects that can

  • ccur in an individual with prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE)

Effects may include

  • Physical dysmorphology
  • Intellectual/learning disabilities
  • Neurobehavioral/social functioning
  • Secondary emotional/mental health disorders

Effects are a result of damage to the developing fetus and they are permanent.

slide-38
SLIDE 38

PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE

For a developing fetus:

  • Alcohol is a known teratogen and there is no known “safe”

amount of exposure for a developing fetus.

  • National surveys show that about 1 in 2 women of child-bearing

age (i.e., aged 18–44 years) drink alcohol, and 18% of women who drink alcohol in this age group binge drink.

  • Among pregnant women, 1 in 10 reported alcohol use and 1 in

33 reported binge drinking in the past 30 days

PRIMARY CHALLENGES FROM FASD

  • Executive function:
  • Problem-solving and planning
  • Abstract reasoning
  • Ability to switch cognitive strategies in response to feedback
  • Verbal and nonverbal fluency
  • Working memory
  • Ability to generalize from one setting or situation to another
  • Attention deficits
  • Social cognition
  • Learning disability – especially with math
  • Impulsivity
slide-40
SLIDE 40

SECONDARY CHALLENGES FROM FASD

AND

Substance use disorders

mental health issues problems in daily living (hygiene, health and diet) disrupted school experience trouble with the law interpersonal relationship challenges increased likelihood for

  • ther health conditions (i.e.

joint issues, ear infections) unplanned pregnancies/parenting challenges maintaining housing, employment

slide-41
SLIDE 41

FASD PREVALENCE

FASD prevalence in US estimated between 2%-5% (CDC, 2014). This number may be low because:

  • Diagnosis requires confirmed maternal alcohol use during

pregnancy, + neurodevelopmental and/or intellectual deficits OR

  • Facial dysymorphology + neurodevelopmental and intellectual

deficits

slide-42
SLIDE 42

FASD PREVALENCE

(CONTINUED)

Only 17% of individuals with FASD have facial dysmorphology and maternal confirmation may be impossible to obtain. And, it can be very difficult to get confirmation of PAE, particularly for adults So, if no facial dysmorphology and no maternal confirmation

  • f PAE, then NO diagnosis.
slide-43
SLIDE 43

SUD PREVALENCE AMONG PATIENTS WITH FASD

Of the individuals with a FASD age 12 and over, the prevalence of alcohol or drug problems was 35%. Of the adults with PAE, 53% of males and 70% of females experienced substance use problems. This is more than 5 times that of the general population.

Streissguth, A.P., Barr, H.M., Kogan, J. & Bookstein, F. L. (1996). Understanding the Occurrence of Secondary Disabilities in Clients with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) and Fetal Alcohol Effects (PAE). Final Report to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Seattle: University of Washington, Fetal Alcohol & Drug Unit, Tech. Rep. No. 96- 06

slide-44
SLIDE 44

Most FASD is undiagnosed… and individuals with FASD are at increased risk of substance use disorders… and treatment programs do not routinely screen for FASD, or modify treatment programming…

slide-45
SLIDE 45

THEN…

IT IS LIKELY THAT AT: a) a) FASD MAY BE FOUND AT AT A HIGHER RAT ATE AMONG OUR CLIENTS THAN THE GENERAL POPULATION. b) b) WE ARE FAILING TO IDENTIFY CLIENTS WITH FASD OR OTHER BRAIN INJURIES WITHIN OUR TREAT ATMENT PROGRAMS. c) c) WE ARE FAILING TO PROVIDE ADEQUAT ATE SUPPORT FOR OUR CLIENTS WHO MAY HAVE A FASD.
