Lead: Methamphetamine use among adult patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome: A single‐center retrospective cohort study
Methamphetamine use among adult patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome: A single‐center retrospective cohort study🔓 Journal of the American Heart Association This study included 1,309 patients treated for an acute myocardial infarct (MI) at a California health system between 2012 and 2022. A total of 194 patients (15%) were methamphetamine users. The Meth-MI group had less diabetes than the No-Meth-MI group (38% vs 51%, p=.001) but many more smokers (72% vs 28%, p<.001). Nonobstructive coronary disease (eg, vasospasm) was more common in the Meth-MI group (24% vs 11%, p<.001), which consequently had lower rates of revascularization, aspirin, and statin therapy. The Meth-MI group had double the mortality (HR, 2.1, p<.001), and methamphetamine use was the strongest predictor of mortality, greater than diabetes. The Meth-MI group was more likely to have a subsequent MI (42% vs 27%, p<.001). The risk of MI with methamphetamine use is 19% higher than the risk with cocaine use (this study excluded cocaine users). The authors believe presentations with methamphetamine use and angina, without MI, is even more common. Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Lead: Best practices for hospital-based initiation of medications for opioid use disorder: A consensus statement
Best practices for hospital-based initiation of medications for opioid use disorder: A consensus statement JAMA Network Open This survey study used a 2-round Delphi process to develop expert consensus on best practices for hospital-based MOUD initiation for patients with OUD, with a goal to provide guidance on changing inpatient addiction treatment in response to increased synthetic opioids in the unregulated drug supply. A total of 42 expert clinicians participated; clinicians were considered a national expert if they had cared for at least 100 hospitalized patients with OUD in the last two years. There was consensus that buprenorphine and methadone initiation in the hospital setting were appropriate, with less support for hospital-based naltrexone initiation. Consensus was also reached to support rapid methadone initiation; high- and low-dose buprenorphine initiation; and provision of non-MOUD full agonist opioids for treatment of opioid withdrawal during methadone initiation, as a bridge to buprenorphine initiation, and for those declining MOUD.

Lead: Access to medications for opioid use disorder among veterans with homeless experience in permanent supportive housing
Access to Medications for Opioid Use Disorder Among Veterans With Homeless Experience in Permanent Supportive Housing JAMA Network Open This cohort study assessed 10,110 US veterans with homeless experience and opioid use disorder (OUD) residing in permanent supportive housing (PSH), in terms of what factors are associated with receipt of medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). Only 17% received MOUD within 12 months. Greater behavioral health engagement was associated with MOUD receipt, while older age, race minority status, and prior inpatient hospitalization were associated with lower odds. These results suggest that MOUD access in supportive housing should be expanding, which could require embedding addiction care into PSH teams, leveraging behavioral health touchpoints, and addressing persistent disparities.
