NCT ID NCT05476588

Summary

This study tested a Spanish-language digital screening tool designed to help doctors in primary care clinics identify patients who may have problems with tobacco, alcohol, prescription drugs, or other substances. Researchers enrolled 1000 Spanish-speaking adults to see how well the new digital tool worked compared to established, longer interview methods. The goal was to validate a faster, easier screening method that could be widely used in healthcare settings.
