关于酒精问题急性治疗的适当时长已经有很多研究和争论。在美国,几年前冗长且昂贵的治疗计划已被更短、强度更低的治疗方案所取代,几乎没有证据表明这种趋势会很快结束。在本文中,我们认为,由于酒精问题具有慢性、反复出现的性质,为酗酒者提供治疗服务的最佳系统需要注重与客户的长期接触。研究反应性和电话随访方案的研究证据表明,在数年的时间跨度内与客户保持联系的低强度长期方案可能会带来更好的长期临床结果,并降低长期医疗保健的利用率和成本。我们为酗酒者描述了一种灵活的长期低强度后续方案,我们称之为“病例监测”。该方案是专门为最大限度地减少长期医疗保健使用而设计的。我们预测这种干预对于女性、患有轴 I 疾病的人以及社会病态程度较低的人尤其有效。还描述了一项研究的设计,以确定该干预措施的临床和健康服务效果。
There has been much research on and debate about the appropriate length of acute treatment for alcohol problems. In the United States, the lengthy and costly treatment programs of only a few years ago have been supplanted by ever-shorter and less intensive protocols, with little evidence that this trend will end soon. In this paper, we argue that, because of the chronic, recurrent nature of alcohol problems, an optimal system for delivering treatment services to alcoholics needs to focus on long-term engagement with clients. There is evidence from studies on research reactivity and telephone follow-up protocols that a low-intensity long-term protocol for maintaining contact with clients over time spans measured in years may result in better long-term clinical outcomes and reduced long-term health care utilization and costs. We describe a flexible long-term low-intensity follow-up protocol for alcohol abusers we call “case monitoring.” This protocol is specifically designed to minimize long-term health-care use. We predict that such an intervention should be especially efficacious for women, persons with comorbid Axis I disorders, and persons lower in sociopathy. The design of a study to determine the clinical and health service effects of this intervention is also described.
