Clinical Trial: Behavior and Driving Safety Study
Study Status: Recruiting
Recruit Status: Unknown status
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Behavior and Driving Safety Study
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether brief motivational interviews reduce the likelihood of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI).
Detailed Summary: Despite extensive legislative, law enforcement, and public awareness efforts, driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) remains a major cause of mortality and loss of years of productive life. A brief motivational interview (BI) is a non-confrontational, patient-centered discussion during which the individual's motivation and confidence to change health-related behaviors are explored. Previous studies of BIs in health care settings suggest that BIs administered after hospitalization for alcohol-related injury reduce the likelihood of repeat injury hospitalization and arrest for DUI.
