Primary care behavioral interventions to prevent or reduce illicit drug and nonmedical pharmaceutical use in children and adolescents a systematic evidence review for the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force

Only one of the three computer-based interventions that reported depression outcomes found greater improvement in the intervention group compared with the control group at 6 months only. All six trials reported a drug use outcome. Four of the five studies assessing self-reported marijuana use found...

520 |a Only one of the three computer-based interventions that reported depression outcomes found greater improvement in the intervention group compared with the control group at 6 months only. All six trials reported a drug use outcome. Four of the five studies assessing self-reported marijuana use found statistically significant differences in favor of the intervention group compared with the control group. All three computer-based trials also reported differences in nonmedical prescription drug use occasions. Individual studies reported additional substance use outcomes with mixed results. CONCLUSIONS: There is inadequate evidence on the benefits of primary care-relevant behavioral interventions in reducing self-reported illicit and pharmaceutical drug use in adolescents 
520 |a Two investigators independently reviewed all titles/abstracts and full-text articles against a set of predetermined inclusion and quality criteria. One reviewer abstracted data into a standard evidence table and a second reviewer checked the data for completeness and accuracy. We qualitatively synthesized the results for the three Key Questions and grouped the included studies by intervention type (primary care-based vs. primary care-relevant computer-based interventions conducted outside of primary care). RESULTS: We included six studies reported in seven publications. Four of the six trials examined the effect of the intervention on a health outcome. One study found no effects of either a therapist-led or computer-based brief intervention on marijuana use consequences or driving under the influence of marijuana.  
520 |a BACKGROUND: Drug use in youth is associated with multiple negative health and social consequences. Even infrequent use increases one's risk of serious adverse events due to an increase in risk-taking behaviors while intoxicated or impaired. Primary care could play a role in helping to prevent and reduce drug use in children and adolescents. PURPOSE: To systematically review the evidence on the benefits and harms of primary care-relevant interventions designed to reduce illicit drug use or the nonmedical use of prescription drugs in children and adolescents. METHODS: We searched PubMed, PsycINFO, and the Cochrane Collaboration Registry of Controlled Trials to identify relevant literature published between January 1992 and June 4, 2013 and MEDLINE through August 31, 2013. We also examined the references from other relevant reviews and included studies.
