Internet‐based therapy vs face‐to‐face therapy for alcohol use disorder, a randomized controlled non‐inferiority trial

Addiction Sep 28, 2020

Johansson M, Sinadinovic K, Gajecki M, et al. - Researchers compared internet‐delivered and face‐to‐face treatment among adult users with alcohol use disorder (AUD) via performing a randomized controlled non‐inferiority trial with a parallel design. Participants were randomized to five modules of therapist‐guided internet‐delivered cognitive‐behavioural therapy (ICBT) (n = 150) or to five modules of face‐to‐face CBT (n=151), delivered over a 3‐month period. They used the same treatment material and the same therapists in both groups. Outcomes suggest non inferiority of internet‐delivered treatment to face‐to‐face treatment in annihilating alcohol consumption among help‐seeking patients with alcohol use disorder. However, non‐inferiority could not be shown on some secondary outcome, including Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test score, in the intention‐to‐treat analysis at 6‐month follow‐up. .
