Study Summary
This trial will test strategies to help people with chronic pain who are misusing opioids.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who are prescribed long-term opioid therapy (LTOT) for chronic pain and exhibit opioid misuse behaviors. Participants must be from UPMC community primary care practices. Those from non-UPMC practices cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a new approach to reduce opioid misuse by implementing consensus-based algorithms in healthcare settings. It's part of the NIH HEAL initiative aimed at improving treatments for patients with opioid use issues on LTOT.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on implementing treatment algorithms rather than testing drugs, it does not have direct side effects like medication would. However, changes in management may affect patient experience.
