Abuse of alcohol has become a global health problem among young adults. The abuse of alcohol not only impacts the families of young adults but also society in general. The aim of the thesis was to conduct a qualitative literature review on nursing interventions for alcohol abuse in young adults between the ages of 18 and 25.
The information was gathered from PUBMED and CINAHL and obtained all the relevant articles. The method of literature survey on the topic of research is done using relevant keywords. The articles related to the topic of abuse of alcohol among the young adult population were collected. From the collected articles eleven most relevant articles were selected. Articles from 2011-2022 related to the topic and read them carefully and analyzed the data and present the relevant information in the thesis.
In the literature survey, nursing interventions were found for alcohol abuse by young adults such as brief motivational interviews (BMI), motivational inter- views (MI), Audit, Audit C. Alcohol Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST), Routine screening brief intervention and referral to treatment (SBIRT). Mobile phone interventions, community-based interventions, booster sessions, timeline follow-up (TLFB), and counseling.
In conclusion, nursing interventions included methods to identify and reduce alcohol consumption among young adults. Among these methods, Audit, Audit C, the MI, and evidence-based pharmacotherapy for alcohol use disorder (AUD) were helpful in identifying and reducing alcohol consumption among young adults.
