Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of a clinical decision support (CDS) alert to facilitate the co-prescribing of naloxone, an opioid overdose reversal agent, with high-risk opioid prescriptions. Prescribing naloxone with opioids is a best practice described in the 2022 US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines on opioid prescribing. The CDS can improve quality of care delivered by improving compliance with the guideline defined best practices. The project will compare CDS alert facilitated co-prescribing of naloxone with high-risk opioid prescriptions vs usual care to evaluate the effectiveness of the CDS alert for improving naloxone prescribing. The patients are not assigned to an intervention and will be receiving any changes in care as part of their routine medical care, rather than a specific intervention that is distinct from their usual medical care. The researchers hypothesize that the CDS alert will be acceptable to providers while increasing naloxone co-prescribing which will reduce the number of opioid overdoses in subsequent 6 months.
