| Scientific title | A randomised controlled trial of extended brief interventions for alcohol-dependent patients in an acute care setting | 
| Study acronym | ADPAC | 
| Study objectives | Extended Brief Interventions (EBI) delivered to alcohol-dependent patients in a hospital setting by an Alcohol Specialist Nurse (ASN) will be effective in reducing overall alcohol consumption and improving on the standard measures of alcohol dependence. | 
| Ethics approval(s) | North West 2 Research Ethics Committee - Liverpool Central, 23/09/2009, ref: 09/H1005/61 | 
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Alcohol dependence | 
| Intervention | Consecutive alcohol-related attendances will be screened for alcohol dependence. Eligible patients who consent will be randomised to either the treatment arm or normal clinical care. Randomisation will be carried out using computer-generated sequentially-numbered sealed envelopes.   Treatment: The EBI utilised by the ASN will follow the FRAMES approach (6 point approach - Feedback, Responsibility, Advice, Menu of Options, Empathy, Self-efficacy). Four to six interventions (20 minutes duration each) will be delivered by an ASN within a twelve-week period. Measures will be recorded at recruitment, 12 weeks and 6 months.  | 
| Intervention type | Other | 
| Primary outcome measure | 1. Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) 2. Severity of Alcohol dependence (SADQ)  | 
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Measure of Dependence (Leeds Dependency Questionnaire). 2. Quantity and frequency of alcohol consumption in UK units per drinking day. 3. Readiness to Change Questionnaire (RTCQ). 4, Number of ED attendances 6 months pre and 6 months post treatment/control. 5. Hospital length of stay sum days in hospital 6 months and 6 months post treatment/control. 6. Number of hospital admissions 6 months pre and 6 months post treatment/control. 7. Length of stay for initial treatment in days.  |
