Alcohol-related problems have been found to be over-represented among patients seen in some primary care settings compared to the general population. Rates of heavy alcohol use and alcohol-related problems have also been found to vary by region of the country, as well as within the same geographic locality depending upon the type of facility and demographic characteristics of clientele served. Alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence are an ever increasing burden to society, totaling an estimated $85.8 billion in 1988. It is also estimated that over 500,000 outpatient visits are made each year for alcohol-related problems, and many of these individuals are seen in primary care settings. Identification of those who could benefit from a brief intervention in primary care settings is important for early intervention and prevention of alcohol-related problems. Little information is available, however, on the most efficient screening methods for identifying problem drinkers in primary care settings, particularly among women and ethnic minorities. The general aims of this project are two: 1) to further explore the over- representation of alcohol-related problems in primary care settings by comparing patients seen in primary care clinics to those seen for non- injury problems in the emergency room (ER) in the same geographic location, to those seen in primary care settings in another region of the country, and to the general population; and, 2) to determine the most efficient screener for identifying those in primary care settings who may benefit from a brief intervention for alcohol-related problems. The project extends work currently funded under both the Alcohol Research Group's Center grant and separate R01 funding. The project involves new data collection in two primary care clinics in Jackson and Hinds County, Mississippi (N=1,048), and comparisons of these data with similar data already collected from the University of mississippi Medical Center ER in Jackson, and from the 5 county-operated primary care clinics and 3 Kaiser Permanente urgent care clinics in Contra Costa County, California. Data on drinking patterns, alcohol-related problems and alcohol dependence from the proposed project will also be compared to data which will be collected in the 1995 National Alcohol Survey (under present center funding) and to data from a new general population survey of Contra Costa County, CA, to be collected in 1995 under separate funding.

与酒精有关的问题被发现在 在一些初级保健环境中看到的患者与一般 人口 酗酒率和与酒精有关的问题 也被发现不同地区的国家，以及内部 相同的地理位置，取决于设施的类型， 服务对象的人口特征。 酗酒和酒精 依赖性是社会日益沉重的负担，估计 1988年为858亿美元。 据估计，超过500，000名门诊病人 每年都有与酒精有关的问题，其中许多问题 在初级保健环境中看到的个人。 查明那些 可以从初级保健机构的简短干预中受益的是 对早期干预和预防酒精相关疾病 问题 然而，关于最有效的 初级保健中识别问题饮酒者的筛选方法 特别是在妇女和少数民族中。 本项目的总体目标有两个：1）进一步探索过度- 初级保健环境中与酒精有关的问题的代表性， 将在初级保健诊所就诊的患者与在非初级保健诊所就诊的患者进行比较， 在同一地理位置的急诊室（ER）中的伤害问题， 在该国另一个地区的初级保健环境中看到的， 和一般人群; 2）确定最有效的 筛选器，用于识别那些在初级保健环境中可能受益的人 酒精相关问题的短暂干预。 该项目扩展了目前在酒精研究和 集团的中心赠款和单独的R 01资金。 该项目涉及新 在杰克逊和海因兹县的两个初级保健诊所收集数据， 密西西比（N= 1，048），以及这些数据与类似数据的比较 已经从密西西比大学医学中心急诊室收集到， 杰克逊，并从5个县经营的初级保健诊所和3个凯撒 加州康特拉科斯塔县的永久紧急护理诊所。 数据 饮酒模式、酒精相关问题和酒精依赖 建议的项目也将与收集的数据进行比较， 1995年全国酒精调查（在目前的中心资助下）和数据 从一项新的康特拉科斯塔县，加利福尼亚州的人口普查， 1995年在单独供资下收集。
