Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess preliminary efficacy of screening for alcohol use and brief interventions (BIs) on patients who present to the emergency department (ED) at-risk for alcohol use disorder (AUD) utilizing established nurse navigators. This is the first study to assess the initial efficacy of a BI to reduce alcohol use in at-risk patients utilizing nurse navigators in the ED who were not bedside nurses.
