The application of digital health to the assessment and treatment of substance use disorders: The past, current, and future role of the National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network.

Digital therapeutics can overcome many of the barriers to translation of evidence-based treatment for substance use, mental health, and other behavioral health conditions. Delivered via nearly ubiquitous platforms such as the web, smartphone applications, text messaging, and videoconferencing, digital therapeutics can transcend the time and geographic boundaries of traditional clinical settings so that individuals can access care when and where they need it. There is strong empirical support for digital therapeutic approaches for behavioral health, yet implementation science with regard to scaling use of digital therapeutics for behavioral health is still in its early stages. In this paper, we summarize the proceedings of a day-long workshop, "Implementation Science and Digital Therapeutics," sponsored and hosted by the Center for Technology and Behavioral Health at Dartmouth College. The Center for Technology and Behavioral Health is an interdisciplinary P30 Center of Excellence funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, with the mission of promoting state-of-the-technology and state-of-the-science for the development, evaluation, and sustainable implementation of digital therapeutic approaches for substance use and related conditions. Workshop presentations were grounded in current models of implementation science. Directions and opportunities for collaborative implementation science research to promote broad adoption of digital therapeutics for behavioral health are offered.

Workshop on Implementation Science and Digital Therapeutics for Behavioral Health.

A method to monitor the structural health of a flexible pipe including disposing one or more sensors within layers of the flexible pipe and wirelessly monitoring the one or more sensors with at least one receiver is provided. A structural health monitoring apparatus of a flexible pipe including a plurality of sensors disposed within layers of the flexible pipe and at least one receiver configured to wirelessly monitor the plurality of sensors is also provided. A method to manufacture a flexible pipe including forming the flexible pipe from a plurality of layers and disposing a plurality of sensors within the layers of the flexible pipe is provided. A composite armored flexible pipe including a tubular core, a plurality of structural layers, an outer jacket disposed external to the plurality of structural layers, at least one structural layer comprising one or more fiber reinforced tapes, and at least one sensor disposed between the tubular core and the outer jacket is also provided.

Structural health monitoring of flexible pipe

A method of assessing the condition of a tubular member comprises driving an ultrasonic probe to fire a short pulse ultrasonic beam at the outer surface of the tubular member and analysing the reflected signals from the tubular member to assess the condition of the tubular member. The apparatus comprises an ultrasonic probe (22), means for driving the probe to fire a short pulse ultrasonic beam at the outer surface of the tubular member and means for converting the reflected ultrasonic beam into image signals which can be analysed to assess the condition of the tubular member.

Scanning method and apparatus

Identifying substance misuse in primary care: TAPS Tool compared to the WHO ASSIST

A method of monitoring the condition of a flexible pipeline comprising the step of scanning the pipeline with an ultrasonic scanner to produce and/or record a signal indicative or the level of flooding within the annulus of the pipeline and/or indicative of the integrity (e.g. corrosion) of the layers of the pipeline. The scanning may be carried out by a diver or a ROV and the results displayed in real-time or stored. Alternative ultrasonic pigging in the through bore may be employed. The annulus is the space between the inner sealing layer and the out sheath and contains the pressure and tensile armour.

Ultrasonic inspecting of flexible pipe line structural integrity.

The present invention provides an apparatus for repairing the outer sheath of a pipe, said apparatus comprising a sleeve (12) adapted to surround the pipe, sealing means (16) for establishing atleast two circumferential seals between the surface of the pipe and means (17, 18) for forcing a sealing solution against the surface of the pipe between the two circumferential seals, the arrangement being such that in use the sleeve is spaced from the outer sheath of the pipe to form a sealed annulus therebetween and a method of repairing an outer sheath of a pipe, said method comprising the steps of mounting a sleeve over the pipe to provide an annulus therebetween, securing the sleeve in place around the pipe, providing two circumferential seals between the sleeve and the pipe and forcing a sealing solution against the surface of the pipe between the two circumferential seals to form a pressure seal between the circumferential seals and sealing the annulus between the pipe and the sleeve.

Method and apparatus for repairing tubular members

The present invention describes an apparatus (1 ) for establishing a subsea environment to enable an intervention operation to be carried out on a pipe, the apparatus comprising a frame (2) adapted to abut an outer surface of the pipe, sealing means (7) to enable the frame to be sealed against the surface of a pipe, and means for monitoring the condition of the seal, wherein the environment is established between the frame and the surface of the pipe and further describes a method of establishing a subsea environment to enable an intervention operation to be carried out on a pipe, the method comprising the steps of deploying a frame (2) subsea, locating the frame against the side of a pipe to establish the environment between the frame and the pipe, sealing the frame against the side of the pipe, and monitoring the condition of the seal.

Intervention method and apparatus

An apparatus for repairing a sheath of a pipe includes a sleeve adapted to surround the pipe, at least two circumferential seals between the surface of the pipe and a pressure source for forcing a sealing solution against the surface of the pipe between the two circumferential seals. The apparatus is arranged such that the sleeve is spaced from the outer sheath of the pipe to form a sealed annulus and a sealing solution is introduced into the sealed annulus.
