<p>The project aims to develop a systematic intervention guide to prevent relapse in GHB-use after detoxification. The project consisted of a preparatory phase (I), a development phase (II) and a pilot study phase (III).<br>In the pilot study, 14 patients participated. Participants were recruited from November 2018 up until July 2019. Data was collected for 6 months after inclusion (up until December 2019). Inclusion criteria of participants were: patients diagnosed as having GHB-use disorder according to DSM 5, and both patient and clinician have signed informed consent.

For our study this was one of the outcome measures as the main aim of this pilot study was to study the implementation possibility of such a design in this setting en participant group.</p><p>A full description of the methology and analysis, as well as the non-standardized questionnaires, are presented in Dutch. A short summary is available in English. The datasets contains the codebook and all raw data used for a pilot study. Only descriptives are used for a Dutch report.</p>
