Opioid Use and Prescription Opioid Use Disorder: Biopsychosocial Characterisation of a Clinical Chronic Pain Cohort
This study is part of the U-PAIN cohort study on a clinical sample from a highly specialised pain centre in Sweden. It is based on a deep and thorough characterisation of patients referred to the clinic to evaluate risks and benefits of opioid therapy in chronic pain. It adds valuable information on the complexity of opioid therapy in chronic pain; the results highlight the need for interdisciplinary multimodal evaluation and treatment.
