Imagine being a clinician faced with the daunting task of managing a patient's chronic pain while minimizing the risks associated with long-term opioid therapy. In this episode of the 'Compass Opioid Stewardship Clinical Cases' podcast, Dr. Donald Stader and Dr. Rachael Duncan tackle this complex issue head-on. They delve into the critical role of informed consent and controlled substance agreements (CSAs) in the landscape of chronic opioid therapy (COT).
Through a vivid clinical scenario, they illustrate the delicate balancing act required to provide effective pain relief without compromising patient safety. Dr. Stader and Dr. Duncan offer a practical toolkit for clinicians, covering everything from alternative treatments and multimodal pain management to common-sense harm reduction strategies. They emphasize the importance of building a therapeutic alliance with patients, reframing their understanding of pain, and managing risks effectively.
The episode also touches on the concept of chemical coping and the potential risks of marijuana use in patients undergoing COT. Whether you're a seasoned healthcare provider or new to the field, this episode is packed with actionable insights that can help you navigate the complexities of chronic pain management. Dr. Stader and Dr. Duncan's expertise shines through as they provide guidance on making informed decisions that prioritize both pain relief and patient safety.
