Creating a device that uses AI to help diagnose and treat opioid use disorder.
Development of an AI-empowered device that utilizes multimodal data-visualization to aid in the diagnosis, and treatment, of OUD
This study is testing a new, easy-to-use device that uses smart technology to help doctors better understand and treat people with opioid use disorder by looking at how their thinking skills change during recovery.

What this research studies
This research focuses on developing an AI-powered device that combines various data visualization techniques to improve the diagnosis and treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD). By utilizing cognitive tests alongside traditional assessments, the project aims to identify cognitive changes in patients, which can lead to better treatment outcomes. The device will be tested in collaboration with multiple rehabilitation clinics, gathering data to refine its algorithms and enhance its effectiveness. The goal is to create a user-friendly platform that provides quick, cost-effective, and objective measures to support rehabilitation efforts.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are individuals diagnosed with opioid use disorder who are seeking rehabilitation treatment.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have opioid use disorder or those who are not engaged in rehabilitation programs may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to more effective treatment strategies for patients with opioid use disorder, potentially reducing relapse rates.
How similar studies have performed: Other research has shown promise in using cognitive assessments and technology to improve treatment outcomes for addiction, indicating that this approach could be effective.
