OBJECTIVES: To estimate how many of the @entity130 @entity1 admitted to ICU would be candidates for a secondary prevention programme for @entity130 related to @entity285 or drug use by brief motivational intervention and to define what factors prevent that intervention being performed. METHODS: All 16-70year old @entity130 @entity1 (n=242) admitted to ICU in 32 non-consecutive months (November 2011 to March 2015) were included in the study, coinciding with the implementation of a screening and brief motivational intervention programme for @entity130 @entity1 related to substance consumption. The programme includes screening for exposure to substances at admission. Sociodemographic and clinical variables were collected prospectively. RESULTS: The screening for substances was not performed in 38 (15.7%) of all admitted @entity1 . Of the @entity1 screened, 101 (49.5%) were negative. The variables that in greater proportion impeded intervention between screening positive @entity1 were @entity16 due to the @entity130 with 23 @entity1 (37.1%) and prior @entity146 with 18 (29%). Both variables were associated with substance consumption: negatives 9.9% vs positive 22.3% (P=.001) and negatives 3% vs positive 17.5% (P=.016) respectively. The number of candidates for motivational intervention was 41, 16.9% of all admitted @entity1 . CONCLUSIONS: Almost 2 out of 10 @entity1 were potential candidates. The factors that in a greater proportion precluded the intervention were the same as those associated with consumption. Mortality in ICU was associated with non-compliance with the screening protocol.
