Implementation of an academic detailing intervention to increase naloxone distribution and foster engagement in harm reduction from the community clinician.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Respond to Prevent (R2P) is a randomized clinical trial which sought to accelerate distribution of naloxone and other harm reduction materials from community pharmacies. R2P combined an online continuing education course with in-store materials, specifically designed for use in community pharmacies, and then supported implementation through the one-on-one educational technique of academic detailing.

Objective

The objective of this paper is to describe and synthesize our experiences providing academic detailing as part of the R2P randomized trial.

Methods

Closed-ended items from standardized post detailing questionnaires were analyzed with descriptive statistics. Open-ended items were content analyzed for key themes using immersion-crystallization qualitativ
