6 An Integrated Alcohol Abuse and Medical Treatment Model for Patients With HCV Slide 6 of XX Fig. 2 Percentage reporting alcohol abstinence by timepoint. Patients (n) at initial interview = 53, at 3 months = 35, at 6 months = 45. Between 0 and 3 months, P <.05. Between 0 and 6 month, P <.01.

8 Alcohol Use in HCV-Infected Patients Increases: Intrinsic liver disease Cirrhosis Mortality Decreases: Likelihood of treatment Slide 8 of XX

9 Alcohol Use and HCV Treatment Outcome Historical alcohol abuse does not change outcome Recent alcohol use: Reduces likelihood of getting treatment Reduces likelihood of completing treatment Does not appear to change sustained virologic response (SVR) when controlled for discontinuation Slide 9 of XX

10 What is Addiction? Continued increasing repetitive stereotyped behavior despite mounting consequences that disrupts function in all realms of life Slide 10 of XX

11 What Makes a Drug Addictive? Tolerance Increasing dose to achieve desired effect Dependence Physical withdrawal when stopped Reinforcement Provides behavioral reinforcement (behaviors that occur during drug exposure increase) Slide 11 of XX

13 Reinforcing and Addictive Drugs Psychomotor stimulants (dopamine) Opiates Sedative: hypnotics and alcohol (gamma-aminobutyric acid [GABA]) Cannabinoids Phencyclidine (N-methyl-D-aspartate [NMDA] receptor) Hallucinogens? Nicotine and caffeine Slide 13 of XX

14 The Disease Model of Addiction Assumes a broken part in the brain Assets Removes blame and stigma Emphasizes medical treatment Vulnerabilities Behavioral models are better than lesion models Removes responsibility from patients There is a volitional component to addiction Slide 14 of XX

15 A Behavioral Model of Reinforcement Law of Effect probability of a behavior can be increased or decreased depending on its immediate consequence. Thorndyke 1913 increase posi+ve environmental exposure Behavior environmental response decrease nega+ve Slide 15 of XX

19 Core Elements of Addiction Treatment Conversion Detoxification Rehabilitation Group Treatment of comorbid psychiatric conditions Relapse prevention Slide 19 of XX

20 Conversion Confrontation with a smile (motivational interviewing) Physician goals vs patient goals Quality of life Longevity vs comfort Function Treatment contract Slide 20 of XX

21 Detoxification Stop the behavior Prevent withdrawal (pharmacological tapers) Diminish craving Treat potential accompanying disorders Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome Endocarditis HIV Slide 21 of XX

22 Rehabilitation Damage control Social, occupational, and family intervention Environmental change People, places, and things that are triggers Structure Extinguish the habit Prescribe a new program Occupational Vocational Educational Social Physical Psychological Slide 22 of XX

23 Treat Comorbid Conditions Treat mood disorders Medication and therapy Attend to life story Psychotherapy and remoralization Mobilize social supports Manage temperament Practical suggestions and directive advice Slide 23 of XX

24 Substituted Addiction Methadone, buprenorphine Addiction with less disorder Decreased reinforcement of behavior Other addictions as models Nicotine Caffeine Nicotine patch, gum, and inhalers Slide 24 of XX

25 Take-Home Messages Success for HCV treatment is dependent on treatment of depression and addiction Alcohol use leads to failed treatment and increased morbidity and mortality Integrated treatment is effective and improves outcome Addiction expertise is a necessary ingredient for success Slide 25 of XX
