Descrição: Background and Objectives A feared complication of opioid use disorder (OUD) is intravenous drug use related infective endocarditis (IDU‐IE). We report on our experience engaging hospitalized IDU‐IE patients to initiate medication‐assisted treatment (MAT). Methods A retrospective study (n = 29) using descriptive statistics. Results Overall, 9 (31.0%) successfully initiated buprenorphine maintenance during the hospitalization, and 9 (31.0%) accepted a referral to methadone maintenance following discharge. Eleven (37.9%) declined MAT altogether. Discussion and Conclusions Hospitalizations may represent an important opportunity to engage IDU‐IE patients to initiate MAT. Scientific Significance The study provides preliminary support of engaging hospitalized IDU‐IE patients to initiate MAT. (Am J Addict 2016;25:191–194)
