Community detoxification for alcohol dependence: A systematic review

Abstract: Although the current evidence base to some extent supports the case for community detoxification there is a need for more randomised controlled trials testing the cost effectiveness of community detoxification in comparison with inpatient detoxification. [Nadkarni A, Endsley P, Bhatia U, Fuhr DC, Noorani A, Naik A, Murthy P, Velleman R. Community detoxification for alcohol dependence: A systematic review Drug Alcohol Rev 2017;36:389-399].

“…The detoxification process was largely clinically uneventful, patients and their carers adhered to the protocol, and there were no serious adverse events resulting directly from the detoxification. This is consistent with findings reported in other studies (Nadkarni et al, 2017a). The impact of home detoxification has been examined using a range of study designs.…”

“…Such a program, based on the principle of collaborative care, overcomes challenges related to accessibility and acceptability of treatment, that are often found in low resource settings (Nadkarni & Bhatia, 2019;Wright et al, 2018).

Unplanned medically assisted withdrawal for patients presenting in crisis is not advised in the community (NICE 2011).…”
