Follow-up study of inmates under opioid agonist treatment before and after release / prepared by Christophe Huỳnh, Jean-Philippe Galipeau, Dena Derkzen, Shanna Farrell MacDonald, Valérie Aubut, Ervane... : PS82-4/22-4E-PDF
"Opioid agonist treatment (OAT) is an effective intervention for the care of persons with opioid use disorder (OUD). Previous studies show that maintaining OAT not only contributes to reducing the number of overdoses but also addresses the health needs of the general and mainstream population. The scientific literature reveals secondary benefits such as a lower rate of re-incarceration in individuals who have received this treatment. However, the impact of the transition from custody to the community, and vice versa, on OAT continuity is poorly documented. Knowing that treatment interruption can lead to serious negative consequences (including premature death), the purpose of this study is to examine health services (support and care received, needs, experiences), issues related to release, and the social and health impacts on federal inmates with OUD who received OAT in an institutional setting."
