4 A prospective, longitudinal cohort study One of the few studies focusing on heroin dependence N=615 8 not in treatment 535 entering treatment 21 entering MT 21 entering detox 135 entering resi rehab
5 In , more people sought treatment for heroin use in Australia than any other illicit drug (n=65,952) (AIHW 212). Heroin dependence How persistent? How chronic? Relapsing condition? When?
6 Baseline (N=615) % Male 66.2 Mean age 29 % Heroin dependent 97.6 Mean length of heroin use career (years) 9.6 Mean number of drug classes used 4.9 % In current treatment for opiate dependence 87. % Major depression 24.6 % Current PTSD 29.4
7 Percent (n=615) 89 (n=549) 81 (n=495) (n=469) (n=429) Number Baseline 3-mths 1-yr 2-yr 3-yr 11-yr Wave % Interviewed % Deceased N Interviewed

9 Jo White & Sonja Memedovic & Philipa Ewer Chris Marel
10 Baseline interviews year interviews
11 We don t know what happens over the longterm for people with heroin dependence Are there indicators that can tell us what is likely to happen over the long-term for their heroin use?
12 Baseline (N=615) 11-years (N=431) % Male Mean age 29 4 % Crime main source of income % Used heroin in past month % Heroin dependent Mean number of drug classes used % In current treatment for opiate dependence % Major depression
13 Percentage Baseline 11-years
14 Two stage process: Modelled trajectories of heroin use, and calculated the probability of belonging to a specific group Entering variables into the model to predict those pathways *Finite mixture modelling: specifically group based mixture modelling approach (Jones, et al 21; Nagin 25)
15 We found 6 pathways of heroin use over 11- years
16 Trajectory % 1. Early decrease to maintained abstinence Early decrease with early relapse Early decrease with late relapse Gradual decrease to near abstinence Gradual decrease No decrease 21.7
17 % Probability Early decrease to maintained abstinence (mean) Year Early decrease to maintained abstinence (predicted)
18 % Probability Early decrease with early relapse (mean) Early decrease with early relapse (predicted) Year
19 % Probability Early decrease with late relapse (mean) Year Early decrease with late relapse (predicted)
20 % Probability Year Gradual decrease to near abstinence (mean) Gradual decrease to near abstinence (predicted)
21 1 Probability % Year Gradual decrease (mean) Gradual decrease (predicted)
22 1 Probability % Year No decrease (mean) No decrease (predicted)
23 1.8 Probability Early decrease to maintained abstinence (mean) Early decrease with early relapse (mean) Early decrease with late relapse (mean) Gradual decrease to near abstinence (mean) Gradual decrease (mean) No decrease (mean) Year
24 1.8 Probability Early decrease to maintained abstinence (mean) Early decrease with early relapse (mean) Early decrease with late relapse (mean) Gradual decrease to near abstinence (mean) Gradual decrease (mean) No decrease (mean) Year
25 Aim: to examine factors associated with each trajectory A series of multinomial logistic regressions were conducted on covariates hypothesised to be associated with heroin use trajectories
26 Demographic characteristics Sex, education Main source of income Homelessness Prison history Past month criminal involvement at baseline Physical and mental health General and physical and mental health ASPD BPD Current and lifetime PTSD Major depression Ever attempted suicide No. traumas Drug use history No. drug classes used last month Types of drugs used last month History of IDU Treatment history In current treatment Current treatment category Index treatment category No. previous rx episodes
27 Aged more than 3 Been using heroin for less than 1 years Ever overdosed Severe mental health disability Had experienced rape
28 Significantly more likely to be in the early decrease to maintained abstinence group. 1.8 Probability Year
29 Significantly more likely to be in the early decrease with early relapse group. 1.8 Probability Year
30 Significantly more likely to be in the gradual decrease to near abstinence group. 1.8 Probability Year
31 Significantly more likely to be in the early decrease with early relapse group. 1.8 Probability Year
32 Significantly more likely to be in the early decrease with early relapse group, early decrease with late relapse group, or gradual decrease to near abstinence group. 1.8 Probability Year
33 1 Probability % Year No decrease (mean) No decrease (predicted)
34 Heroin dependence is often a chronic, recurring condition, associated with complex trajectories. More than 8% of the cohort achieved some level of reduction in their heroin use. It is difficult to predict who will follow a chronic pathway The critical factors guiding trajectories are: Aged more than 3 Used heroin for less than 1 years History of overdose Ever been raped Severe mental health disability
35 Examining how treatment across the 11-year follow-up impacts upon a person s trajectory Continued follow-up of the ATOS cohort to examine the pathways of the group as they continue to age ??????
