| الوصف: | A "revolving door" of repeated admissions to detoxification treatment facilities has long plagued alcohol and drug use patients, yet few studies examine factors associated with readmission. This study examined risk factors for readmission to alcohol and opioid detoxification in a sample from the Alaska Interior.Data were extracted from electronic medical records for admissions between 2012 and 2016 at an inpatient detoxification facility in Fairbanks, Alaska. Data from 1014 patients admitted for alcohol detoxification and 267 patients admitted for opioid detoxification were analyzed. The analysis employed descriptive statistics for risk factors (substance use history, adverse life experiences, and psychosocial functioning) and prevalence of readmission to either alcohol or opioid detoxification. Inferential analyses used marginal standardization to calculate differences in readmission risk by patient characteristics.Male, Alaska Native/American Indian, single-never married patients, and those seeking work were at higher risk for readmission to alcohol detoxification, while those with stable housing were at reduced risk. Being single-never married and completing detoxification treatment reduced readmission to opioid detoxification. Family involvement in detoxification reduced readmission risk for both alcohol and opioid patients.Further research that investigates the mechanism(s) by which family may act as a protective factor may be efficacious in eliminating the "revolving door" of detoxification.This study is the first to examine both alcohol and opioid use risk and protective factors in the Alaska Interior. The results can be used in the development of interventions for subpopulations with high detoxification readmission rates. |
