Official title
Impact of Digital and Behavioral Tele-Health Tapering Program for Perioperative Surgical Patients Exposed to Opioids
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This clinical trial studies the effect of behavioral health support including tele-health in helping surgical patients taper off of prescription opioid pain medications. "Tapering off" means taking dose amounts of medication that get smaller over time, so that less and less of the drug is used until it is not needed anymore. Researchers want to learn how these techniques may improve a patient's ability to lower or avoid dependence on opioid medications after surgery, and if behavioral therapies may improve quality of life, emotional well-being, and functional status around surgery.
