Summary
State the scientific aim(s) of the study, or the hypotheses to be tested. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the usage and acceptability of the Soberlink's blood alcohol concentration (BAC) unit in collaboration with Aware treatment to assess increased sobriety within patients suffering from alcohol use disorder (AUD).
The specific AIMS will be:
1. To determine the effectiveness of Soberlink's ability to increase abstinence
2. To evaluate the impact of Soberlink's device on the participant based on their quality of health and sobriety.
3. To evaluate the extent to which need for higher levels of follow-up care and treatment is reduced for individuals who have had access to the Soberlink device.
