Grant Activity:
Responsible pre-operative Opioid use for Hip and knee ArthropLasTy (OpioidHALT) study
Purpose:
Opioids are medicines used to manage strong pain, but are associated with significant side effects. Opioids are often prescribed inappropriately for osteoarthritis and, when used before surgery, lead to worse pain and longer hospital stay. We propose an intervention where pharmacists educate patients on pain self-management and help with lowering opioid doses before surgery. This research is projected to save $5 million from safer opioid use and reduced hospital costs.
