The FORGE study is a multi-faceted study comprised of four separate Components (studies): For completing selected studies you will be paid at least $50.00 for your time. I) California Poison Control System (CPCS) Data Surveillance (Component I) II) Telephone Interviews (Component II) Telephone Interview Enrollment Closed. III) Human Controlled Studies (Component III) IV) Focus Group Discussions (Component IV) Focus Group Discussion Enrollment Closed. Using this interdisciplinary approach, the FORGE Study investigators hope to gain insight into the motivations, medical consequences and vulnerability factors responsible for adverse medical complications of GHB to help prevent serious injury and mortality in the future.
