Video Summary
Dr. James Finch presents on risk evaluation and stratification in chronic pain management and its effect on initial treatment planning. He emphasizes the importance of assessing the clinical indication for opioids and considering the risks and contraindications associated with their use. Dr. Finch discusses the expanded use of opioids in treating chronic nonmalignant pain but highlights that they should not be a first-line choice. He also discusses various tools available for risk assessment, such as the opioid risk tool, prescription monitoring programs, and toxicology screening. Treatment planning should consider the patient's level of risk and may include referral, collaborative treatment, and the use of opioid management treatment agreements. Education for patients and families on risk factors and overdose prevention is crucial. Collaborative care models are recommended for addressing chronic pain.
