SUMMARY:Team-Based Care to Address Psychiatric and Physical Health Co-morbidities in Persons with Opioid Use Disorders: Responding to Chicago’s Opioid Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Presenter(s): Steve Weinstein\, MD\, Medical Director\, Thresholds; Tim Devitt\, Psy.D\, MS.Ed\, Associate Vice President\, Thresholds; J. Wesley Cook\, DO\, Family Physician\, J. Wesley Cook\, DO; Nicholas Chien\, MD\, Emergency Physician\, Rush University Medical Center; Ruchi Fitzgerald\, MD\, FAAFP\, Service Chief of Inpatient Addiction Medicine\, PCC Community Wellness \nTarget Audience: Physicians\, nurse practitioners or other advanced practice nurses\, PAs\, pharmacists\, as well as allied professional staff and program administrators. \nWebinar Description: According to provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)\, over 81\,000 drug overdose deaths occurred in the United States in the 12 months ending in May 2020\, the highest number of overdose deaths ever recorded in a 12-month period. Most of these deaths are driven by the misuse of prescription and illicit opioids. Research also suggests that a significant number of people with an opioid use disorder also have a co-occurring psychiatric disorder as well as other physical health conditions\, making engagement and care more complex. Please join us as we discuss how one treatment program in Chicago uses a team-based care approach to engage and address the psychiatric and health care needs of people with opioid use disorders. \nEducational Objectives: \n\nDevelop an understanding of psychiatric and health conditions common in people with opioid use disorder (OUD)\nIdentify effective treatment engagement strategies for people with OUD\, particularly during COVID-19\nExamine team-based treatment approaches to addressing psychiatric and health conditions in people with OUD\nExplore the importance of networking and communicating with community medical and psychiatric providers to address client needs\nDiscuss effective strategies to reduce risk and opioid use disorder related harm\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder in the Emergency Department: Should it be a Choice?
DESCRIPTION:Presenter(s): Gail D’Onofrio\, MD\, Professor and Chair\, Department of Emergency Medicine\, Yale University School of Medicine \nTarget Audience: Physicians\, nurse practitioners or other advanced practice nurses\, PAs\, and pharmacists. \nWebinar Description: This webinar will focus on the crucial role of the emergency department (ED) in recognizing and treating opioid use disorder (OUD) patients with evidence-based medications for addiction treatment. Gail D’Onofrio\, MD\, will discuss her pioneering work in creating the evidence for initiating ED buprenorphine treatment with ED patients presenting with opioid use disorder. Overall\, the opioid epidemic intertwined with the COVID-19 pandemic has greatly escalated the need to mitigate the morbidity and mortality associated with the rising rate of fentanyl use. Data supporting the use of buprenorphine in the ED setting as well as the consequences of not initiating treatment will be discussed. While the use of ED prescribed buprenorphine has increased\, universal adoption has lagged. Barriers to implementation of ED buprenorphine will be discussed as well as strategies to overcome these challenges. Components of successful integration of an ED program with community partnerships will be outlined. Current research by emergency physicians regarding innovative strategies such as high-dose buprenorphine inductions and use of extended release 7-day formulation of buprenorphine will be discussed. Initiation of buprenorphine effectively reduces withdrawal symptoms\, improves adherence to treatment\, and saves lives. \nEducational Objectives: \n\nEvaluate outcomes for Opioid Use Disorder in patients receiving buprenorphine through the Emergency Department and discuss supporting evidence\nIdentify barriers and solutions to initiating buprenorphine in the Emergency Department\nApply harm reduction strategies and components of the buprenorphine integration pathway\nUtilize the Brief Negotiation Interview\, an evidence-based intervention to increase consent with Opioid Use Disorder treatment\nDiscuss innovative solutions for buprenorphine induction in the ED including different formulations of buprenorphine and high dose strategies\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Racial Inequities in Substance Use
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Michelle Durham\, MD\, MPH\, FAPA\, DFAACAP \nUntreated substance use disorders contribute to thousands of deaths each year. Although there are treatments available\, many communities have not accessed them. The reasons for this are multifactorial including stigma\, mistrust\, discrimination\, racism and criminalization of substance use. This activity will highlight the inequities in substance use treatment including federal and state policies that have influenced the criminalization of substance use. The webinar will include strategies for assessing\, diagnosing and treating substance use disorders in racial and ethnic minorities. Funding for this initiative was made possible (in part) by grant no. 1H79TI081968 from SAMHSA.

SUMMARY:Grand Rounds: Women\, Opioid Use\, and Addiction: The Continuing Epidemic
DESCRIPTION:Carolyn M. Mazure is the Norma Weinberg Spungen and Joan Lebson Bildner Professor in Women’s Health Research\, and Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology. She is a national pioneer and leader in studying the health of women and the sex and gender differences that affect health outcomes. Dr. Mazure’s work has influenced science\, clinical care\, and policy. She created and directs Yale’s interdisciplinary research center on the health of women and the interplay of sex\, gender\, and health— Women’s Health Research at Yale. \nAfter three years at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and fellowship training at Yale\, Dr. Mazure was invited to join the Yale faculty — becoming an active clinician\, a researcher funded by the NIH\, and Director of Psychiatry’s Adult Inpatient Program at Yale New Haven Hospital. \nHer contributions in women’s health began with her own internationally recognized research in depression. Focusing on the gender differences in this disorder\, she was the first to demonstrate how stress is a more potent pathway to depression in women than men and use these findings to inform treatment interventions. Her current research targets behavioral and neurobiological factors that contribute to sex and gender differences in health outcomes. These efforts are designed to provide gender-based strategies for treatment and prevention. \nUnderstanding the value of uncovering sex-and-gender differences in depression\, combined with recognizing that such data are sorely lacking in other fields\, she created Women’s Health Research at Yale. Since its inception in 1998\, the center has been honored as a national model for launching research on the influence of sex and gender on human health\, translating findings into practice\, providing mentored training\, and asserting a national voice on the importance of studying women. Currently\, the center is expanding to include a focus on health policy and the value of public-private partnerships to advance the health and economic opportunities of women. \nDr. Mazure has served on multiple NIH and international grant review committees and as a member of the Advisory Committee for the NIH Office for Research on Women’s Health. She has provided testimony to the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives on the importance of research on the health of women. She has served on the planning committee for the First White House Conference on Mental Health and was a fellow for the U.S. Congress’ Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. \nHer scientific\, educational\, and administrative leadership roles include Associate Dean for Faculty at Yale School of Medicine from 2002 to 2014\, Scientific Director of NIH-funded SCOR(E) interdisciplinary research grants\, Principal Investigator of NIH-funded junior faculty training grants\, consultant to the Yale Tobacco Center of Regulatory Science\, and a member of the Advisory Board of the Yale Center for Biomedical Innovation and Technology\, an interdisciplinary initiative to foster medical technology advances. \nShe has been an invited speaker at diverse venues\, such as NASA\, the Smithsonian Institution\, and the Sorbonne and has been a featured expert on ABC’s “Prime Time Live” and in the BBC documentary “The Science of Stress.” Her edited books include “Does Stress Cause Psychiatric Illness?” and “Understanding Depression in Women: Applying Empirical Research to Practice and Policy.” \nHer national honors include the Marion Spencer Fay Award from the Institute for Women’s Health and Leadership\, the American Psychological Association Distinguished Leadership Award from the Committee on Women in Psychology\, the Elizabeth Blackwell Award from the National Organization for Women\, a U.S. Public Health Fellowship\, and Yale’s Stephen Fleck Clinician and Teacher Award\, and the Sidney J. Blatt Award for excellence in clinical care\, teaching\, and research. \nVirtual Zoom Meeting Link-Click HERE

SUMMARY:A Marketing Perspective on How To Reach Vulnerable Populations and Build up Long-term Relationships with Self-services in a Digital Health Context
DESCRIPTION:About Professor Dr. Florian von Wangenheim\nFlorian von Wangenheim is Professor of Technology Marketing\, Department of Management\, Technology\, and Economics at ETH Zürich. His doctoral degree is from the University of Mainz\, Germany (2002). Before joining ETHZ in 2013\, he was a Professor of Service and Technology Marketing at the TUM Business School\, Technische Universität München\, a junior professor of services management at the University of Dortmund\, Germany\, and a visiting professor of marketing and services at the University of Passau\, Germany. Currently\, Florian von Wangenheim serves as a panel chair for the European Research Council (Starting Grants)\, is the Jury President for the Swiss Technology Award by the Swiss Economic Forum\, and is Head of Department of Management\, Technology and Economics at ETH Zurich. His research focuses on the consequences of service technologies that replace and complement human interaction in service delivery\, such as Remote and Teleservices\, Self-Services\, Robots and Chatbots\, and other interactive technology systems in contexts such as industrial\, health and financial services. He is Associate Editor of the Journal of Service Research and serves on the editorial board of the Journal of Marketing and the Journal of Business Research. For his work\, he has received several best paper awards from the American Marketing Association\, and various research awards. Most of his research projects are conducted with public and industry partners. \nAbout the Lecture\nThe lecture will cover marketing basics and insights as they relate or may relate to digital and mobile health. It departs from the notion that recent developments in both\, marketing and health care\, have shifted research attention to how customers/patients create value through their own action\, rather than being passive recipients of a treatment/medication. In this spirit\, we will deal with the segmentation and targeting issue of vulnerable populations\, which in marketing and economics literature\, has parallels in the discussion of adverse selection. Finally\, Florian von Wangenheim will discuss the marketing engagement literature and how it might relate to the central task of engaging patients. \nZoom: https://ethz.zoom.us/j/96630138109 \nMore details on our website
