BACKGROUND: Medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) is associated with substantial reductions in the risk of mortality, and American and Canadian guidelines recommend it as part of the full range of available treatments for youth with opioid use disorder (OUD). We estimated the OUD cascade of care for all adolescents (ages 12-18) and young adults (19-24) with OUD in British Columbia, Canada (BC) in 2018.
METHODS: Using a provincial-level linkage of six health administrative databases, we classified youth with OUD as adolescents (ages 12-18) or young adults (19-24) to compare with older adults (≥25) and described key factors known to influence engagement in health care. The eight-stage cascade of care included diagnosed with OUD, ever engaged in MOUD, recently in MOUD, currently in MOUD, and retained in MOUD for ≥1 month, ≥3 months, ≥12 months, ≥24 months.
RESULTS: We identified 4048 youth diagnosed with OUD as of September 30, 2018 (6.3% of all people with OUD). Most were young adults, aged 19-24 (n = 3602; 89.0% of all youth), a majority of whom were males (n = 1984; 55.1%). In contrast, adolescents diagnosed with OUD (n = 446; 11.0% of all youth) were mostly females (n = 287; 64.4%). Compared to adolescents, there were more young adults diagnosed with OUD ever engaged in MOUD (71.4% v. 36.5%), currently on MOUD (29.3% v. 16.8%), and retained in care for ≥1 year (8.6% v. 2.0%).
CONCLUSIONS: A high proportion of youth aged 12-24 diagnosed with OUD in a health care setting in British Columbia received MOUD yet continued engagement is infrequent, particularly for adolescents. Long-term treatment plans for youth need to consider including MOUD when appropriate as part of tailored, youth-friendly services.
