![]() Acute Pain Management in Patients with OUDThis Opioid Training Initiative course was developed to prepare healthcare professionals who work to manage pain for patients in the hospital setting with opioid use disorder (OUD). The course supports development of an approach to manage pain with hospitalized individuals with OUD, and compare pain management strategies for individuals with OUD taking buprenorphine, methadone, extended release naltrexone, and non-prescribed opioids. The course also reviews considerations for transition of care and discharge planning.
The information in this course has been specifically tailored to meet the needs of clinicians practicing in Texas with a focus on regional trends, laws and regulations.
