 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Drug overdose is the leading cause of injury death among adults aged 25 to 64 years in the United States. The number of fatal overdoses involving opioid pain relievers nearly quadrupled between 1999 and 2013, and fatal overdoses related to heroin almost tripled between 2010 and 2013. Public health interventions designed to reduce opioid overdose deaths are urgently needed. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist that "reverses" opioid overdoses. Increased access to naloxone has been shown to reduce opioid overdose mortality; however, naloxone is a prescription drug, which limits opportunities to expand its distribution. In March 2014, Massachusetts established an innovative program that allows the issuance of naloxone standing orders (NSO) at community pharmacies. Under NSO, pharmacies can dispense naloxone to any individual at risk of having, or witnessing, an opioid overdose. Massachusetts is one of the first states to implement a pharmacy-based naloxone distribution program on a broad scale, but a growing number of states are passing legislation to authorize these programs. Accordingly, Massachusetts represents an important and timely "natural experiment" in expanding naloxone access through community pharmacies. This study will use a multiphase mixed methods research design to assess the implementation and impact of the Massachusetts NSO program. Specifically, this study will (1) characterize implementation of the Massachusetts NSO program and assess barriers and facilitators to pharmacy participation and proper dispensing; (2) examine the acceptability of pharmacy-based naloxone dispensing to illicit opioid users and potential overdose bystanders and identify factors that would increase acceptance for these two groups; and (3) assess the impact of the pharmacy NSO program on overdose mortality. At the conclusion of our study, we will have generated a comprehensive understanding of the factors that influence the implementation and impact of one of the first statewide pharmacy-based naloxone dispensing programs in the United States. Our findings will be of considerable value to the growing number of states considering and/or implementing NSO programs as part of their overall strategy to reduce the public health burden of opioid overdose mortality.

 描述（由适用提供）：药物过量是美国25至64岁的成年人受伤死亡的主要原因。在1999年至2013年之间，涉及阿片类止痛药的致命过量服药的数量几乎是三倍的，而与海洛因有关的致命过量药物几乎在2010年至2013年之间几乎增加了两倍。纳洛酮是一种“逆转” Opioid过量服用的卵巢拮抗剂。已经显示出增加纳洛酮的机会可以降低卵巢过量的死亡率。但是，纳洛酮是一种处方药，它限制了扩大其分布的机会。 2014年3月，马萨诸塞州建立了一个创新计划，该计划允许在社区药房发布纳洛酮常规（NSO）。在NSO下，药房可以将纳洛酮分配给有或目睹阿片类药物过量的任何人。马萨诸塞州是最早大规模实施基于药房的纳洛酮分销计划的州之一，但越来越多的州正在通过立法来授权这些计划。据马萨诸塞州的说法，马萨诸塞州代表了通过社区药房扩大纳洛酮访问的重要和及时的“自然实验”。这项研究将使用多相混合方法研究设计来评估马萨诸塞州NSO计划的实施和影响。具体而言，这项研究将（1）表征马萨诸塞州NSO计划的实施，并评估药房参与和适当分配的障碍和促进者； （2）检查基于药房的纳洛酮对非法阿片类药物使用者的可接受性和潜在的用药旁观者的可接受性，并确定会增加这两组接受的因素； （3）评估药房NSO计划对过量死亡率的影响。在我们的研究结束时，我们将对影响美国最早基于药品的纳洛酮分配计划的实施和影响的因素进行全面的了解。我们的发现将对越来越多的国家考虑和/或实施NSO计划作为其总体战略的一部分，以减少阿片类药物过量死亡率的总体策略的一部分。
