Official title
Prevention of Opioid Use Disorder After Surgery: A Pilot and Feasibility Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is to design, implement, and pilot test a multi-faceted intervention to support safer opioid prescribing, self-administration, and monitoring and reduce persistent opioid use and opioid use disorder for patients transitioning to the community setting after major orthopedic surgery. The multi-faceted intervention includes: 1) communication with outpatient providers and counseling of patients and caregivers at hospital discharge; 2) standardized opioid prescribing discharge order sets for each type of surgery; 3) an outpatient pain management follow-up visit embedded within routine post-operative care for managing pain and opioid use, and 4) a mobile patient-reported outcomes application for assessing pain, function, and possible development of opioid use disorder (OUD). The primary outcome will be persistent opioid use (in the 6 months after surgery) based on state-wide prescription data. Secondary outcomes will include the total morphine-equivalent dose of opioids prescribed at discharge; total post-operative opioids dispensed in the 6 months after surgery; and self-reported opioid misuse, pain and function 90 and 180 days after surgery.
