简要总结
Opioid analgesics are routinely prescribed for these patients for post-operative pain control. Even a short exposure to opioids in opioid-naïve patients following minor or major surgery has been associated with de novo habitual or persistent use of opioids in 5-30% of patients. The goal of the study to eliminate the use of outpatient opioids prescriptions after major urologic surgery.
详细描述
Nearly 200 million opioid prescriptions are dispensed per year in the United States. Opioid prescriptions given by medical providers are a major contributor to the opioid abuse epidemic. Nearly 40% of opioid overdose-related deaths occur due to prescribed opioids. Among patients diagnosed with opiate dependence, 80% had received an opioid prescription prior to their abuse diagnosis and 51% had a family member who had an opioid prescription, Thus, opioids prescriptions, which are often in excess of the need by the patient, are a major contributor to this public health crisis.
The investigators devised a prospective intervention study to eliminate or significantly reduced the use of opioids prescribed at hospital discharge after major urologic surgery.
