Twelve step programmes in compulsory care for patients with substance abuse disorder

The twelve step programme is a method for treatment and recovery from substance use disorders and other behavioural addictions. Professional twelve step treatment is based on the recovery path laid out in Alcoholics Anonymous mutual aid groups, and is led by addiction counsellors with personal experience of addiction.

SBU Enquiry Service

Consists of structured literature searches to highlight studies that can address questions received by the SBU Enquiry Service from Swedish healthcare or social service providers. We assess the risk of bias in systematic reviews and when needed also quality and transferability of results in health economic studies. Relevant references are compiled by an SBU staff member, in consultation with an external expert when needed.

Question

What scientific studies have been published regarding the effect of professional twelve step programmes for patients in compulsory care for substance use disorder?

Method

A systematic literature search was performed using the following databases: MedLine, Scopus, PsycInfo, SocIndex and Criminal Justice Abstracts.
Two authors independently assessed the abstracts of all identified studies.
Risk of bias in relevant systematic reviews was assessed using an assessment tool based on AMSTAR.

Identified literature

No relevant systematic reviews or primary studies were identified.
