DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Alcohol screening and brief intervention (SBI) procedures have been evaluated in the context of clinical research programs over the past two decades. In the developed countries of Europe, Australia, and North America, SBI efforts have progressed to the point of practical demonstrations and some system-wide applications. But alcohol SBI has seen little implementation in developing countries. The World Health Organization (WHO) is now undertaking a project on the Implementation of Brief Interventions in Primary Care Settings, which will involve program implementation (but no evaluation) within large population areas in Brazil and South Africa. The University of Connecticut Health Center (UCHC) is therefore proposing an international study to evaluate the WHO SBI implementation project. The proposed evaluation has two specific aims. First, the study will evaluate the effects of SBI implementation at the level of health care workers, measuring changes in knowledge, attitudes, and the practice of screening and providing brief interventions. Second, the study will assess the success of the SBI implementation projects in engaging and employing community partners in an alliance that results in the adoption and implementation of SBI by the regional and national health system as a standard of care. The results of this evaluation, when combined with the findings of prior research in developed countries, will provide a foundation for a comprehensive, international approaches for planning, monitoring, and evaluating SBI implementation.

描述（由申请人提供）：过去二十年来，酒精筛查和简短干预（SBI）程序已在临床研究项目的背景下进行了评估。在欧洲、澳大利亚和北美等发达国家，SBI的努力已经取得了实际示范和一些全系统应用的成果。但酒精 SBI 在发展中国家几乎没有实施。世界卫生组织（WHO）目前正在开展一个关于在初级保健机构中实施简短干预措施的项目，该项目将涉及在巴西和南非人口较多的地区实施方案（但不进行评估）。因此，康涅狄格大学健康中心 (UCHC) 提议开展一项国际研究来评估 WHO SBI 实施项目。拟议的评估有两个具体目标。首先，该研究将评估 SBI 在卫生保健工作者层面实施的效果，衡量知识、态度和筛查实践的变化，并提供简短的干预措施。其次，该研究将评估 SBI 实施项目在吸引和雇用社区合作伙伴组成联盟方面是否成功，从而导致地区和国家卫生系统采用和实施 SBI 作为护理标准。此次评估的结果与发达国家先前的研究结果相结合，将为规划、监测和评估 SBI 实施情况的全面的国际方法奠定基础。
