The purpose of this study is to develop and test a serious injection-related injections (SIRI) checklist aimed at increasing evidence-based treatment for rural people who use drugs (PWUD) including innovative, long-acting injectable agents. The central hypothesis is that hospital-based care models can successfully engage rural and Southern (PWUD) in effective addiction treatment and infection prevention. The activities in this study will be foundational to Ending the HIV epidemic in rural states.
Aim 1:
We will conduct a prospective study of 60 PWUD hospitalized at UAB. Using a standardized survey, we will elicit HIV risk behaviors, substance use, and HIV-related stigma. We will use the 14-item Behavioral Risk Assessment for Infectious Diseases (BRAID) scale, which queries drug use and sexual behaviors while using drugs. We will also collect clinical and patient reported data related to infections (bacterial, viral), PrEP use, HCV treatment, and medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD). We will query perception of HIV risk, PrEP awareness, and interest. Surveys will be completed electronically in private hospital rooms to reduce social desirability bias.
Aim 2:
We will conduct surveys with 60 PWUD hospitalized at UAB to evaluate attitudes and preferences toward opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment and HIV prevention, including long-acting injectable formulations. We will explore interest and preferences related to hospital initiation of each medication. Each session will include open-ended questions on barriers, such as stigma, and opportunities for increasing evidence-based care including HIV prevention and addiction treatment.
Aim 3:
The SIRI Checklist will build on the existing standard of care for SIRI, Addiction Medicine and ID consultation, by adding a standardized reminder to offer MOUD, PrEP, and arrange appropriate community-based care with both Addiction and ID providers. SIRI Checklist will be inspired by the iCARE checklist, developed for endocarditis in PWID, but will be applicable for all PWUD and will incorporate HIV prevention education and linkage to care, including Hepatitis C (HCV) treatment. The checklist will be integrated into the provider's documentation using a smartphrase text for ease of use and standardization.
Of the 60 participants we will randomize them to SIRI checklist (15), SIRI checklist plus enhanced Peer Recovery Coach (15), enhanced Peer Recovery Coach (15), or standard of care (15).

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| SIRI Checklist | Experimental | A standardized checklist of clinical items to review by the attending hospitalist with participants. |
|
| Enhanced Peer Recovery Coach | Experimental | Participants will receive the addiction medicine protocol plus peer recovery coaching beginning while hospitalized and continuing for up to 1 month after randomization. As part of this study, Peer recovery coaches will initiate contact with patients weekly in person during the hospitalization and at the time of hospital discharge. The enhanced part of the peer coach is the post-hospital follow-up. Following discharge, contact will continue weekly in person, by phone, and/or via text messaging based on the participant's preferences for 1 month. |

| Acceptability Assessment | We will conduct exit interviews to assess provider perspectives of SIRI Checklist. We will query addiction, infectious diseases, and primary providers using a standard survey. Open-ended questions will solicit feedback on specific aspects of the checklist or delivery that need to be addressed, edited, or removed before a subsequent randomized controlled study. We will conduct a 3 month follow up survey of participants to assess use of PrEP, addiction treatment, and healthcare utilization. | From enrollment to 3 month post-enrollment |
| Feasibility Assessment | We will quantify participants who meet study criteria, consent, have documentation of the SIRI checklist in provider notes, initiate MOUD and/or PrEP in the hospital, and complete exit interviews in order to assess how feasible the intervention is. | From enrollment to 3 months post-enrollment |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Number of prescriptions for PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) | The study team will abstract documentation in the electronic medical record of prescription for PrEP up to 3 months post-enrollment. Data extraction will be limited to services provided in the UAB health system. | Enrollment until 3 months post-enrollment. |
