Understanding the impact of Covid-19 on the delivery and receipt of prison healthcare
Offering HCV treatment to prisoners is an important opportunity
Prison is an important location to detect, address and treat HCV infection in people who may be underserved for healthcare and find it difficult to navigate community treatment pathways. This is often related to problems with OUD and resulting social inequity. HCV management in prisons must be improved. Policy and clinical practice guidance must be set to promote treatment, and practical steps to make treatment easy should be followed including e…
Deep Vein Thromboses in Injecting Drug Users
Deep vein thromboses (DVTs) are common sequelae of injecting drugs into the groin. We explored meanings and experiences of DVTs in a group of 19 patients from the North East of England with a DVT and in treatment for opioid use. We report three themes: (a) DVT meaning making, (b) embodied experience, and (c) Stigma. Patients attributed DVTs to groin injecting, though thought other factors were also partially responsible. Medication performed both…
Assessing the predictability of self-harm in a high-risk adult prisoner population
BACKGROUND: Prisoners are at increased risk of self-harm and when either intent is expressed, or an act of self-harm carried out, prisoners in the UK are subject to self-harm/suicide monitoring (referred to as "open ACCT" monitoring). However, there is a paucity of validated instruments to identify risk of self-harm in prisoner populations. In response to the need to support prison staff to determine who is at increased risk of self-harm or repea…
Research priorities to achieve universal access to hepatitis C prevention, management and direct-acting antiviral treatment among people who inject drugs
Is peer injecting a form of intimate partner abuse? A qualitative study of the experiences of women drug users
Women are over-represented as the recipients of injections of illicit drugs and are often injected by their intimate partners. This study used qualitative research to explore women drug users' experiences of abuse from intimate partners when being injected with illicit drugs. In-depth interviews were conducted with 45 women drug users in the city of Leeds and the area of North Nottinghamshire, UK. The practice of peer injecting illicit drugs plac…
Homelessness and drug use - a narrative systematic review of interventions to promote sexual health
Exploring risk perception and behaviour of homeless injecting drug users diagnosed with hepatitis C
Injecting drug users (IDUs) are at the greatest risk of hepatitis C infection by using any item of injecting equipment that has come into contact with contaminated blood. Alongside this, homeless IDUs have been identified as being at increased risk of harm in their illicit drug taking behaviour. This study interviewed 17 hepatitis C positive homeless IDUs about their injecting practices. In-depth interviews explored the impact of a positive hepat…
Associations between migrancy, health and homelessness
There is limited awareness of the link between differing health problems and migrancy of homeless people. The present cross-sectional study sought to quantify the extent of migrancy of homeless people from their place of birth (PLOB) and evaluate whether a history of problematic drug use, alcohol misuse or enduring mental health problems were associated with migrancy from their PLOB. The work was conducted at an inner-city health centre for the h…
