Analyze baseline concurrent opioid prescribing metrics at the individual prescriber level in the Duke Health System on the identified three main outcome measures. Test the impact of reports on opioid prescriber behaviors with the following primary measures: number of prescriptions with concurrent benzo within reporting period, number of prescriptions with concurrent muscle relaxants within reporting period, and number of encounters with naloxone prescriptions for patients with any opioid-related diagnosis within reporting period. Create a blueprint to implement the concurrent opioid prescribing nudge intervention in other settings.
This is a randomized controlled trial assessing the utility of an educational video on pain management after a cesarean section to reduce opioid use. The educational video will be shown during the patient's postpartum stay and the amount of opioid and adjunct medications will be assessed in those who watched the video compared to those who received the standard of care discharge instructions without the video. Participants will be contacted 7 and 14 days after cesarean birth (post operative day number 7 and number 14) to complete a telephone survey on their overall pain management and to determine how many opioid tablets have been used.
The objective of this study is to better understand the comprehensive integration of both clinical and genetic factors that will help to identify mothers who could be at an increased risk of poor response to opioid substitution and infants at risk of significant neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS).
There is a lack of evidence that long-term opioid use offers benefit for noncancer pain and an abundance of evidence of harm. The objective of the R21 pilot phase of the Application of Economics & Social psychology to improve Opioid Prescribing Safety (AESOPS) is to develop and test novel behavioral nudges to encourage adherence to pain and CDC guidelines for opioid prescribing for persons with noncancer pain. Interventions will leverage the electronic health record (EHR) to discourage unnecessary opioid prescribing through the application of "behavioral insights"-empirically-tested social and psychological interventions that affect choice.
This is a single-group, within-subject, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo and active-controlled study evaluated whether the FDA-approved cannabinoid dronabinol (Marinol) would enhance analgesia, subjective reports, and cognitive performance when compared to the FDA-approved opioid hydromorphone (Dilaudid).
The purpose of this study is to determine if methadone improves postoperative pain control in pediatric patient's undergoing cardiac surgery.
The purpose of the study is to determine if perineural dexmedetomidine can provide increased prolongation of analgesia when compared to perineural dexamethasone in patients receiving regional block for shoulder surgery. If so, dexmedetomidine may serve as a superior adjunct to peripheral nerve blocks in a rapidly evolving, ambulatory-centered surgical setting.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of cognitive-behavioral therapy in combination with transcranial direct current stimulation in (1) improving pain and functionality, (2) reducing severity of opioid use disorders, and (3) reducing impairment in associated mental health areas (e.g., depression, anxiety, PTSD, sleep). The investigators will also determine the effects of treatment on neural activity in cognitive and limbic brain regions involved in pain regulation using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and examine its relationship to opioid use severity.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of an electronic health record based strategy in promoting safe use of opioid medications after an Emergency Department (ED) visit. The electronic health record (EHR)-based strategy was designed to enhance provider counseling about opioids and to standardize and simplify the information that patients receive.
