Population-based multistate modelling of peritraumatic opioid use among trauma patients from the Norwegian Trauma Registry
In our cohort, most patients with posttraumatic long-term opioid use had used opioids before injury, underscoring the need to address such use to minimise posttraumatic long-term opioid use. Few patients with long-term opioid use received palliative care or opioid maintenance treatment, indicating subacute and chronic pain as primary indications. As long-term opioid use for pain is highly controversial, findings emphasise a need for effective nonopioid alternatives.
