Aug. 16, 2019 – The Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative and the Michigan Opioid Prescribing Engagement Network reviewed data on how 50,000 patients took opioids for pain management. New guidelines were developed for surgeons on how to prescribe opioids for nine common surgeries including hernia repair and gallbladder removal.
About 12,000 patients were tracked across 43 hospitals. When more than half of those patients were interviewed about their pain levels, most didn’t report feeling an increase in them and were satisfied with their care.
