Summary

This study compares a fully automated digital screening and brief intervention (e-SBI) to the traditional in-person approach for reducing harmful alcohol consumption. Researchers will enroll over 500 adults from Brazilian public health clinics to see which method works better at cutting down risky drinking. The goal is to find a practical, scalable way to help people drink less without needing extra clinic time.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
electronic screening and brief intervention tool (e-SBI)
What this could lead to
If effective, this digital tool could offer a scalable, low-cost way to reduce harmful drinking in large healthcare systems.
What could go wrong
The trial is relatively small and compares two behavioral approaches, so results may not apply to other settings or populations.
