研究概览
简要总结
The COVID-19 pandemic is exacerbating the challenges faced by Veterans at risk of opioid overdose including Veterans prescribed moderate-to-high dose long-term opioid therapy (LTOT) whose usual treatment resources and coping strategies may be inaccessible. This project combines established VA care components to deploy and evaluate virtual models of care for Veterans on high-risk LTOT to meet the dual challenges of maintaining social distancing and delivery high quality care.

结局指标
主要结局
The Number of Patients Who Agree to Change in Their Opioid Regimen, Including Buprenorphine Transfer
时间窗: 30 days
Using shared decision-making with Veterans, we will based the measure on clinical reports of patient change in opioid regimen. This would be tapering (reducing opioid dose), discontinuation, or transfer to buprenorphine. Any reduction or change was considered positive for change, even if the patients returned to their initial dose. The number of patients who agree to change their opioid regimen provides a realistic indicator of overall feasibility/acceptability.
