Video-Observed Oral Fluid Self-Collection Pilot Study in Substance Use Disorder Treatment

A pilot study of 28 participants receiving substance use disorder treatment in outpatient or residential settings evaluated a video-observed oral fluid self-collection protocol. The dataset includes scores from validated measures on acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, and usability of the method. The data was authored by Nicholas L. Bormann and published on figshare in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Assessing the acceptability of remote drug testing methods based on Acceptability of Intervention Measure scores
• Evaluating the feasibility of video-observed self-collection protocols based on Feasibility of Intervention Measure scores
• Analyzing usability challenges in telehealth workflows based on System Usability Scale scores
• Comparing implementation outcomes across different clinical care settings mentioned in the description

Strengths

• Includes data from 28 participants in real-world outpatient and residential care settings
• Reports specific mean scores for four validated implementation measures (e.g., acceptability mean 3.5, SD 1.1)
• Provides demographic context: 23 participants (82.1%) had multiple SUDs, 27 (96.4%) had co-occurring mental illness

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Dataset is very small (16.5 KB), indicating limited scope
