NCT ID NCT07079241
First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Apr 25, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study tests a new approach to opioid overdoses: using a smartphone app to alert nearby trained volunteers who carry naloxone, a medicine that reverses an overdose. The goal is to see if volunteers can reach victims faster than an ambulance and give the antidote in time. About 1,000 volunteers in Sweden will be trained and equipped, and researchers will track how often they successfully help and how safe it is for everyone involved.
