{ "pk": 16240, "title": "ELECTRONIC SCREENING FOR ADOLESCENT RISK BEHAVIORS IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "ABSTRACT\nIntroduction\nThis study aimed to assess the prevalence of risk behaviors and the impact of electronic risk behavior screening with personalized feedback among adolescents seeking care in the emergency department (ED).\nMethods\nRandomized control trial of tablet-based screening and feedback among adolescents presenting to the ED. Intervention youth received screening with individualized feedback. Control youth completed risk behavior screening only. All participants received 3-month online follow up surveys re-assessing health behaviors.\nResults\n296 subjects were enrolled and randomized. Approximately half were female (52.4%) and half white (54.4%) with a mean age of 15.4 years. The response rate at 3-month follow-up was 70.6%. The most frequently reported risk behaviors were those negatively impacting long-term health: sleeping less than 8 hours per night (142/296=48%), drinking more than 2 sugary drinks per day (99/296=33.4%) and getting less than 3 days of physical activity per week (96/296=32.4%). The prevalence of high-risk behaviors with more immediate health consequences were depression (92/296 =31.1%); high alcohol (47/296=15.9%) or marijuana use (55/296=18.6%); texting when driving (41/296=13.8%) and inconsistent birth control or condom use (42/296=14.2%). There was no significant difference between groups in risk behavior changes from baseline to 3 months.\nConclusions\nWhile risk behavior prevalence was high in this population, electronic personalized feedback alone was insufficient to induce change in behaviors. More research is warranted to understand the best strategies for reducing risk among youth presenting to the ED.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
