The study will be carried out in 9 Danish municipalities in 2008. The study is part of the 'Diet, Smoking, Alcohol and Exercise' nationwide health study of the Danish population. It takes place in 13 municipalities in 2007 and 2008.\n\nThe study will determine whether a brief intervention is effective in lowering self reported alcohol use in heavy drinkers.\n\nDesign:\n\nThe experiment is designed as a randomized controlled trial, where heavy drinkers will be allocated to either:\n\nA) a intervention group receiving a short (about 10 minutes) motivational conversation (build on the principles of motivational interviewing) and two leaflets about alcohol ('Good advice about drinking less' and 'Learn more about alcohol') and a sheet about local alcohol treatment possibilities. The Intervention group is also offered a brief telephone follow up call 4 weeks later. The purpose of this is to maintain the participant's motivation to reduce drinking.\n\nB) a control group receiving two leaflets about alcohol ('Good advice about drinking less' and 'Learn more about alcohol') and a sheet about local alcohol treatment possibilities.\n\nThe study will take place in premises linked to the 'Diet, Smoking, Alcohol and Exercise' nationwide health study.\n\nAfter 6 and 12 months there will be follow-up and the participants will receive a questionnaire with questions about their alcohol consumption."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Participants must be invited to the Danish 'Diet, Smoking, Alcohol and Exercise' nationwide health study.\n* Participants must have responded to an Internet questionnaire.\n* Participants must have a weekly alcohol consumption above the recommended Danish limits (168 grams of alcohol for women, 252 grams of alcohol for men).\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Weekly alcohol consumption less than 168 grams of alcohol for women and 252 grams of alcohol for men."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00728767', 'briefTitle': 'Brief Intervention for Heavy Drinkers', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Southern Denmark'}, 'officialTitle': 'Brief Intervention for Heavy Drinkers - a Randomized Controlled Trial', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'NIPH - 1948'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': '1', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Brief intervention']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': '2', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Control group']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Brief intervention', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'The intervention consists of a brief conversation based on the principles of motivational interviewing, including Rollnicks scales to assess the motivation and importance for change.
