Description

Addiction Journal Club (AJC) is a monthly session where we meet to review an evidence-based article and discuss its implications for substance use disorder (SUD) practice. This includes new research and landmark studies relevant to SUD practice. AJC is distinct from other BMC Grayken Center for Addiction TTA events; it is designed to be less didactic and more of an interactive review of emerging data and trends related to caring for persons who use substances. It is also a great opportunity to network with addiction colleagues and share experiences about clinical practices.

This month, we will review and discuss “Outpatient alcohol withdrawal management in a substance use disorder bridge clinic: An opportunity for low-barrier engagement and shared decision-making" by Peterkin, A.F., Laks, J., Farrell, N., Weisenthal, K., & Taylor, J.L. https://doi.org/10.1097/ADM.0000000000001463
