Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention for Opioid and Alcohol Use Disorders

Randomized Controlled Trial of Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention for Opioid and Alcohol Use Disorders

A randomized controlled trial will examine mindfulness-based relapse prevention (MBRP) program outcomes for 240 individuals who have completed treatment for opioid or alcohol use disorders. MBRP is a group aftercare program that integrates mindfulness skills training with cognitive-behavioral relapse prevention strategies. Primary outcomes will include frequency of opioid/alcohol use, craving, withdrawal, and quality of life. Secondary outcomes include time to first opioid/alcohol use, adherence to medication-assisted treatment plans, perceived stress, posttraumatic stress symptoms, and chronic pain. We will also examine the following potential moderators of intervention outcomes: comorbid diagnoses, life events history, and MBRP intervention adherence. In addition, we will examine the following mediators of intervention outcome: mindfulness skills, emotion regulation skills, executive functioning skills, savoring, and positive and negative affect.
