AUDIT screening Correct Answer Assess alcohol
consumption, drinking behaviors, and alcohol-related
letting you document a number for a response so it is not open to
individual interpretation. The AUDIT helps detect both less
severe alcohol problems (hazardous and harmful drinking) and
alcohol abuse and dependence disorders. It is helpful with ED
and trauma patients because it is sensitive to current as opposed
to past alcohol problems. It is useful in primary care settings
with adolescents and older adults. It is relatively free of gender
and cultural bias. Hazardous drinking—Pattern is high risk for
future damage to physical or mental health. Harmful drinking—
Alcohol use already results in problems.
Note that the AUDIT covers three domains: alcohol
consumption (questions 1 to 3); drinking behavior or
dependence (questions 4 to 6); and adverse consequences from
alcohol (questions 7 to 10).1 Record the score at the end of each
line and total; the maximum total is 40. A score of 0 to 7
indicates low risk, 8 to 14 is considered hazardous or harmful,
and a score of 15 or more is indicative of alcohol dependence.1
The AUDIT-C is a shorter form that is helpful for acute and
critical care units. The AUDIT-C is a valid screening test for
heavy drinking and/or active alcohol abuse. It uses the three
alcohol consumption questions (numbers 1 to 3), including
question number 3, which is itself a brief screening test for
heavy drinking. This helps examiners discriminate heavy, at-risk
drinking from low-risk drinking in a very short time (less than 2
,minutes). The possible score is 0 to 12; a low-risk response is ≤2
points. A cut point of ≥3 is a measure of heavy or at-risk
drinking. In addition, a "Yes" to drinking 6 or more drinks on
one occasion ever in the past year warrants further assessment.5
CAGE questionnaire Correct Answer Have you ever felt you
should Cut down on your drinking?

should suspect alcohol abuse and continue with a more complete
substance-abuse assessment
