Abstract
BACKGROUND HIV, opioid use disorder (OUD), and mental health challenges share multiple syndemic risk factors. Each can be effectively treated with routine outpatient appointments, medication management, and psychosocial support, leading implementers to consider integrated screening and treatment for OUD and mental health in HIV care. Provider perspectives are crucial to understanding barriers and strategies for treatment integration. METHODS We conducted in-depth qualitative interviews with 21 HIV treatment providers and social services providers (12 individual interviews and 1 group interview with 9 participants) to understand the current landscape, goals, and priorities for integrated OUD, mental health, and HIV care. Providers were purposively recruited from known clinics in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, U.S.A. Data were analyzed using applied thematic analysis in the NVivo 12 software program and evaluated for inter-coder agreement. RESULTS Participants viewed substance use and mental health challenges as prominent barriers to engagement in HIV care. However, few organizations have integrated structured screening for substance use and mental health into their standard of care. Even fewer screen for opioid use. Although medication assisted treatment (MAT) is effective for mitigating OUD, providers struggle to connect patients with MAT due to limited referral options, social barriers such as housing and food insecurity, overburdened staff, stigma, and lack of provider training. Providers believed there would be clear benefit to integrating OUD and mental health treatment in HIV care but lacked resources for implementation. CONCLUSIONS Integration of screening and treatment for substance use and mental health in HIV care could mitigate many current barriers to treatment for all three conditions. Efforts are needed to train HIV providers to provide MAT, expand resources, and implement best practices.

Drug Alcohol Rev 2024.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite recommendations for ambulatory withdrawal programs appearing in many contemporary alcohol and other drug treatment guidelines, to date there have been few studies exploring such programs from client and service stakeholder perspectives. The aim of this study was to explore both individual and service stakeholder perceptions of a nurse practitioner-led ambulatory withdrawal service on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. METHODS Data were obtained from three groups: clinicians with knowledge of the service (n = 6); relatives of clients who had used the service (n = 2); and clients who had used the service (n = 10) using a Qualitative Descriptive design. Saldaña's (Saldaña, The coding manual for qualitative researchers. 2013) structural coding framework was used to analyse and code data into themes, with the study reported in accordance with the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) checklist (Tong et al. Int J Qual Health Care 2017;19:349-57). RESULTS Participants noted advantages of the nurse practitioner-led ambulatory withdrawal service, including rapid availability of admission to the service and a person-centred approach. Compared with other ambulatory withdrawal options, clients valued the ability to remain in their own environment, however participants suggested greater follow-up after withdrawal, with the potential of a home visiting service for greater client engagement and treatment retention. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Findings provide evidence to suggest that nurse practitioner-led ambulatory withdrawal services are an acceptable option for a proportion of clients who need rapid access to services when they wish to make changes to their alcohol and/or other drug use. Furthermore, they can provide person-centred care for comorbid physical and mental ill health occurring in addition to psychosocial issues associated with alcohol and/or other drug use.

Psychological Distress Mediates the Relationship Between HIV-Related Stigma and Prescription Opioid Misuse Among Chinese People Living with HIV. AIDS Behav 2024; 28:1673-1683.

Abstract
Prescription opioid misuse (POM) among people living with HIV (PLWH) is a serious concern due to risks related to dependence and overdose, and PLWH may be at higher risk for POM due to psychosocial stressors including psychological distress. However, scant POM research has examined the role of HIV-related stigma (e.g., internalized stigma, enacted stigma) in POM among PLWH. Guided by minority stress theory, this study examined a hypothesized serial mediation among enacted stigma, internalized stigma, psychological distress, and POM within a sample of Chinese PLWH with pain symptoms enrolled in a wave (between November 2017 and February 2018) of a longitudinal cohort study in Guangxi (n = 116). Models were tested individually for six enacted stigma experiences, controlling for key demographic and health-related variables (e.g., CD4 + count). Results showed HIV-related workplace discrimination was the most common stigma experience (12%,) and 10.3% of PLWH reported POM. Indirect effect analyses showed that internalized stigma was indirectly associated with POM through psychological distress. Internalized stigma and psychological distress mediated the association between workplace discrimination and POM. Family discrimination, gossip, and healthcare discrimination were directly associated with POM. This study suggests that Chinese PLWH may engage in POM to cope with psychological distress that is rooted in HIV-related stigma and highlights the important context of workplace discrimination for PLWH. Implications for interventions to reduce POM among PLWH are discussed.

Abstract
Aim: Pain is a major challenge in the management of HIV/AIDS. This research analyzed the prevalence of substance use and opioid misuse among people with HIV (PWH) and those without (PWoH) in the USA. Methods: Using data from the 2015-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, the study assessed misuse of pain relievers and opioids in 279,025 individuals. Results: PWH were about 1.88-times more likely to misuse pain relievers and 1.85-times to misuse opioids than PWoH, with a notable rise in hydrocodone and tramadol misuse. Conclusion: The data highlights an imperative for interventions targeting substance misuse among PWH, addressing the complex nexus of HIV, chronic pain and opioid use.

Opioid use and HIV treatment services experiences among male criminal justice-involved persons in South Africa: a qualitative study. Harm Reduct J 2023; 20:90. [PMID: 37480041 PMCID: PMC10360229 DOI: 10.1186/s12954-023-00834-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioid use disorder (OUD) is overrepresented among people with criminal justice involvement; HIV is a common comorbidity in this population. This study aimed to examine how formerly incarcerated men living with HIV and OUD in South Africa experienced HIV and OUD services in correctional facilities and the community. METHODS Three focus group discussions were conducted with 16 formerly incarcerated men living with HIV and OUD in Gauteng, South Africa. Discussions explored available healthcare services in correctional facilities and the community and procedural and practice differences in health care between the two types of settings. Data were analyzed thematically, using a comparative lens to explore the relationships between themes. RESULTS Participants described an absence of medical services for OUD in correctional facilities and the harms caused by opioid withdrawal without medical support during incarceration. They reported that there were limited OUD services in the community and that what was available was not connected with public HIV clinics. Participants perceived correctional and community HIV care systems as readily accessible but suggested that a formal system did not exist to ensure care continuity post-release. CONCLUSIONS OUD was perceived to be medically unaddressed in correctional facilities and marginally attended to in the community. In contrast, HIV treatment was widely available within the two settings. The current model of OUD care in South Africa leaves many of the needs of re-entrants unmet. Integrating harm reduction into all primary care medical services may address some of these needs. Successful HIV care models provide examples of approaches that can be applied to developing and expanding OUD services in South Africa.

Past-year medical and non-medical opioid use by HIV status in a nationally representative US sample: Implications for HIV and substance use service integration. JOURNAL OF SUBSTANCE USE AND ADDICTION TREATMENT 2023; 147:208976. [PMID: 36827878 PMCID: PMC10100645 DOI: 10.1016/j.josat.2023.208976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023]
Abstract
AIM In the context of the continued overdose epidemic, recent population estimates of opioid use in highly affected groups, such as people at risk for or people living with HIV (PLWH), are essential for service planning and provision. Although nonmedical opioid use is associated with HIV transmission and with lowered adherence and care engagement, most studies rely on clinic-based samples and focus on medical use of opioids only. We examine associations between opioid-related outcomes by HIV status in a community-based nationally representative sample. METHODS The 2015-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health included 213,203 individuals aged 18 and older. Respondents self-reported whether a health care professional ever told them they had HIV/AIDS (i.e., HIV-positive/PLWH, HIV-negative, HIV-unknown). Opioid-related outcomes included past-year medical opioid use and past-year nonmedical (i.e., prescription opioid and heroin) use. Multinomial logistic regression estimated adjusted relative risk ratios between past-year opioid-related outcomes and HIV status, controlling for age, gender, race/ethnicity, income, population density, and year. RESULTS In 2015-2019, 0.2 % of respondents were PLWH and 0.3 % self-reported an HIV-unknown status. Past-year medical opioid use was 37.3 % among PLWH, 30.4 % among HIV-negative and 21.9 % among HIV-unknown individuals. Past-year nonmedical use was 11.1 % among PLWH, 4.2 % among HIV-negative and 7.2 % among HIV-unknown individuals. Compared to HIV-negative individuals, PLWH had 3.21 times higher risk of past-year nonmedical use vs. no use (95 % CI:2.02-5.08) and 2.02 times higher risk of past-year nonmedical vs. medical opioid use only (95 % CI:1.24-2.65). CONCLUSION Nonmedical opioid use prevalence was almost three times higher among PLWH than HIV-negative individuals. Because opioid use and its related harms disproportionately burden PLWH, integrating HIV and substance use prevention and treatment services may improve both HIV-related and opioid-related outcomes, including overdose.

"With a PICC line, you never miss": The role of peripherally inserted central catheters in hospital care for people living with HIV/HCV who use drugs. THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF DRUG POLICY 2021; 96:103438. [PMID: 34593288 DOI: 10.1016/j.drugpo.2021.103438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2021] [Revised: 08/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND People who use drugs (PWUD), and especially those who inject drugs, are at increased risk of acquiring bloodborne infections (e.g., HIV and HCV), experiencing drug-related harms (e.g., abscesses and overdose), and being hospitalized and requiring inpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy delivered through a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). The use of PICC lines with PWUD is understood to be a source of tension in hospital settings but has not been well researched. Drawing on theoretical and analytic insights from "new materialism," we consider the assemblage of sociomaterial elements that inform the use of PICCs. METHODS This paper draws on n = 50 interviews conducted across two related qualitative research projects within a program of research about the impact of substance use on hospital admissions from the perspective of healthcare providers (HCPs) and people living with HIV/HCV who use drugs. This paper focuses on data about PICC lines collected in both studies. RESULTS The decision to provide, maintain, or remove a PICC is based on a complex assemblage of factors (e.g., infections, bodies, drugs, memories, relations, spaces, temporalities, and contingencies) beyond whether parenteral intravenous antibiotic therapy is clinically indicated. HCPs expressed concerns about the risk posed by past, current, and future drug use, and contact with non-clinical spaces (e.g., patient's homes and the surrounding community), with some opting for second-line treatments and removing PICCs. The majority of PWUD described being subjected to threats of discharge and increased monitoring despite being too ill to use their PICC lines during past hospital admissions. A subset of PWUD reported using their PICC lines to inject drugs as a harm reduction strategy, and a subset of HCPs reported providing harm reduction-centred care. CONCLUSION Our analysis has implications for theorizing the role of PICC lines in the care of PWUD and identifies practical guidance for engaging them in productive and non-judgemental discussions about the risks of injecting into a PICC line, how to do it safely, and about medically supported alternatives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People who use drugs (PWUD) commonly experience complex illness, psychosocial stressors, housing insecurity, and stigma, which may play key roles in their struggles with addiction. In a study of hospitalized PWUD with hepatitis C virus infection (HCV), participants described treating HCV as "part of recovery." These findings led us to explore how hospitalization and acute illness altered patients' perceptions of substance use disorder (SUD) and HCV. METHODS Researchers audio recorded in-depth semi-structured individual interviews of 27 hospitalized adults with SUD and HCV seen by an addiction consult service (ACS) at an urban academic medical center between June and November 2019. Research staff transcribed interviews and dual coded them deductively and inductively at the semantic level. Researchers used a matrix visualization to discern relationships among codes and conducted a thematic analysis. RESULTS Many participants believed addictions treatment should precede an HCV cure for varying reasons. Some wanted to avoid reinfection; others believed "getting clean" afforded the mental clarity to address health issues, including HCV. Patients newly engaged in SUD treatment described HCV treatment as a "step towards recovery" and could serve as motivation to continue SUD treatment. Participants believed HCV cure could facilitate sobriety by "mentally putting drugs in the past" and was a future-oriented action toward "better health." Many participants described the compounded stigma of having HCV infection and SUD by multiple groups, including friends/family who do not use drugs, other drug users, and health care workers. CONCLUSION Hospitalized adults with SUD and HCV believed addictions engagement should precede HCV treatment and HCV cure could play an important role in their "recovery" journey. Discussing HCV treatment during hospitalization may be an opportunity to support engagement in SUD treatment and targets an untreated patient population critical for achieving HCV elimination.
