Brief Summary:
This study is designed to examine the feasibility and impact of the use of remote monitoring devices during an outpatient ambulatory alcohol detoxification treatment for patients with alcohol use disorders.
Detailed Description:
The study will include 30 subjects with a diagnosis of alcohol use disorder. The study uses a breathalyzer device with facial recognition to confirm the patient's identity and sends the information to the study staff using cellular technology. A second device is used which is a wireless blood pressure cuff that connects to the patient's smartphone and sends blood pressure and heart rate measurements directly to the study physician for enhanced monitoring during alcohol withdrawal management. The duration of the study is 8 days, starting with an initial appointment to set up the equipment. Throughout the study, surveys are completed by subjects in regards to their experience with the device. Subjects undergo a brief 30-60 minute appointment on the first day of the study, appointments as needed throughout the study, and an appointment on the last day of the study to check in with the physician for ongoing ambulatory management of alcohol withdrawal, including medication adjustments if indicated.
