Opioid Prescribing Habits of General Versus Pediatric Surgeons After Uncomplicated Laparoscopic Appendectomy.
Journal of Surgical Research(2019)
摘要
After an uncomplicated laparoscopic appendectomy, general surgeons prescribe significantly more opioid to adolescent patients than do pediatric surgeons, even when controlling for age and weight. One substantial and modifiable contributor of the opioid epidemic is the amount of opioid prescribed. The variability of prescribing habits to adolescents and young adults demonstrates a clear need for increased education and guidelines on this topic, especially for surgeons who do not frequently treat the younger and more vulnerable population.
