A systematic literature review of patient perspectives of barriers and facilitators to access, adherence, stigma, and persistence to treatment for substance use disorder

Introduction: The opioid crisis has left a devastating impact on the United States (U.S.) for over 20 years. The over-prescribing of opioid medications and availability of illicit opioids have contributed to the U.S. opioid epidemic. Given the complexity of the epidemic, substance use disorder, and...

Given the complexity of the epidemic, substance use disorder, and its treatment, there is an urgent need for a thorough review of the qualitative literature which has captured the patient's experiences Such patient-derived qualitative data on lived experiences and perspectives may allow researchers, clinicians, and policy makers to glean new insights into addressing this epidemic. Objectives: The objective of this paper is to present a systematic literature review of the existing U.S. qualitative research and provide a patient perspective on medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), including barriers and facilitators to MOUD use. Methods: In November 2019, four electronic databases (PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, and Web of Science) were searched by a medical librarian using a combination of keywords, Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), and/or CINAHL subject headings. 8766 results were imported into EndNote, then duplicate records were removed, leaving a total of 4722 articles.

Results: The screening in the abstract phase excluded 4681 results, leaving 41 studies for full-text screening to determine their eligibility for inclusion in the review. After screening, 21 articles were included in the study and the analysis is based on these articles Common themes across studies included stigmatization, perceived barriers to MOUD, and MOUD treatment deserts and provider shortages. Conclusions: Qualitative research studies conducted to date have uncovered substantial MOUD treatment barriers which are both social and structural in nature.
