3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Proof of concept: Pilot Study A Pilot, proof of concept, observational study with a long-term goal to develop a minimally invasive wearable Remote Medication Monitor (RMM) that provides continuous, real-time data on methadone levels in interstitial fluid (ISF). An RMM could be used as a medication adherence monitor and would allow for the physician, counselor, patient, or family member to remotely verify that a physician-prescribed dose has been taken.

The purpose of this study is to determine the proportion of children presenting to a pediatric emergency department with an acute mental health/behavioral crisis or clinical drug toxicity who have a "match" or "mismatch" between the genes for drug metabolizing enzymes and their current or recent drug therapy. The investigators will utilize a readily available and FDA-approved cheek swab DNA test --GeneSight®--in these children that categorizes patients into 3 different type of groups - RED, YELLOW, and GREEN based on individuals' abilities to metabolize psychotropic drugs . Specific objectives include: * The relationship of genomic mismatch to serum drug concentrations, either low or high * The proportion of children with a genomic mismatch who present to PED with intentional self-injury. * The relationship between match versus mismatch and self- and caregiver-reported outcomes of functioning, drug efficacy, and drug tolerability. * Examine the proportion of children/adolescents who present to PED with an adverse drug reaction to one or more psychotropic with a genomic mismatch. * Quantify the specific adverse reactions related to a mismatch of genotypes.
