  Title Opioid substitution treatment in custodial settings : a practical guide Type Book Whole
  Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 91  
  Keywords treatment and maintenance; prison-based health service; harm reduction; prison; international area  
  Abstract This practical guide on “Opioid Substitution Treatment in Custodial Settings” is to support prison doctors, contracted doctors, prison health care workers, prison administration, NGOs and others in delivering or supporting substitution treatment to opioid dependent prisoners. Drug dependence has to be treated as a severe disease and everyone has a part to play to ensure the best treatment for prisoners and also to ensure that drug related harm is kept as low as possible. Applying the recommendations in this guide will contribute to a healthier prison for prisoners with drug dependence with satisfying roles for staff members and a marked reduction in the harm that drug use in prisons can create.

  Title Guidelines for collecting data on retail drug prices in Europe : issues and challenges Type Book Whole
  Year 2010 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 132  
  Keywords research; data collection; price and pricing; illicit drug; recommendations or guidelines; Europe  
  Abstract Prices are an essential element of the illicit drug market, from both a supply and demand perspective. They are an indicator of drug availability and are an important tool for understanding the workings of drug supply mechanisms. They may also be used to help target law enforcement resources and assist criminal justice agencies with decisions related to prosecution and sentencing (e.g. assets recovery). The EMCDDA has been collecting information on retail drug prices via its Reitox focal points for the last 15 years. Although considerable progress has been made in this area, there is still variation in data collection in Europe. To address this issue, the EMCDDA has released these Guidelines for collecting data on retail drug prices in Europe: issues and challenges in its Manuals series. The Manual raises awareness on specific issues related to collecting data on retail drug prices and offers practical suggestions. It addresses difficulties in obtaining a definition of ’retail’ prices, and discusses the challenge of obtaining a representative sample of illicit, and therefore hidden, transactions. Suggestions are made for a minimum set of variables to be recorded for each observation. Targeted at all those involved in data collection on drug prices in Europe, the Manual reviews the main data-collection methods, current national practices and data-management issues.

  Title Guidelines for testing HIV, viral hepatitis and other infections in injecting drug users Type Book Whole
  Year 2010 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 75  
  Keywords addiction; AOD use, abuse, and dependence; chemical addiction; health; prevention; primary health care; communicable disease; intravenous drug user; risk-taking behavior; viral hepatitis; HIV infection; social services; recommendations or guidelines; Europe  
  Abstract Infectious diseases are among the most serious health consequences of injecting drug use and can lead to significant healthcare costs. Injecting drug users are vulnerable to a range of infectious and communicable diseases through a variety of risk behaviours, and because of underlying conditions such as poor hygiene, homelessness and poverty. There is a recognised need for guidance on providing IDUs with a medical examination and testing for HIV, viral hepatitis and several other infections on a regular basis. In addition, improving testing uptake in this group would benefit epidemiological surveillance and monitoring as carried out at the national and international level. These guidelines are accompanied by a recommended package of prevention and primary care in relation to injecting drug users and infections. Treatment and other specialist care are not discussed in detail but are dealt with by indicating referral to appropriate services.

  Title Building a national drugs observatory : a joint handbook Type Book Whole
  Year 2010 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 109  
  Keywords monitoring; drug; organizational structure; administration and management; Europe; Americas; international area  
  Abstract National drugs observatories have flourished and developed rapidly over the last two decades as a direct consequence of the decisions taken to establish regional drug monitoring systems, both in the European Union and in the Americas. Initially, there was no reference framework available — observatories were set-up using trial and error, taking into account different national contexts and resources. This explains why today there are as many models of observatories as there are countries establishing them. Looking back at this long process, there seemed to be a need to formalise the experiences in the field, and to identify some key concepts and principles that remain valid irrespective of country or region. This handbook, a joint production by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) and the Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission of the Organization of American States (CICAD–OAS), presents and describes in a clear and informative way the core operational processes and the key strategic factors that are common to all national drugs observatories.
