The antidote naloxone must be administered rapidly after opioid overdose to prevent death. Bystander or "take-home" naloxone programs distribute naloxone to opioid users and other community members to increase naloxone availability at the time of overdose. However, data describing the natural history of take-home naloxone in the hands of at-risk individuals is lacking. To understand patterns of naloxone uptake in at-risk users, we developed a smart naloxone kit that uses low-energy Bluetooth (BLE) to unobtrusively detect the transit of naloxone through a hospital campus. In this paper, we describe development of the smart naloxone kit and results from the first 10 participants in our pilot study.en-USAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/opioid overdosenalaxonedetectionBluetoothEmergency MedicineHealth Information TechnologyMedical ToxicologyPublic HealthSubstance Abuse and AddictionConference Paperhttps://escholarship.umassmed.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4387&amp;context=oapubs&amp;unstamped=1https://escholarship.umassmed.edu/oapubs/337611985883oapubs/3376
