About this study

Official title: Clinical Researcher Experience Assessment Documenting Usage and Plan of Care Changes Due to Drug Screenings ©

The purpose of this minimal risk, observational survey is to document the accuracy, benefits, and how qualitative and quantitative results affect patients' plan of care.

Read the detailed description

Pain is the most common reason patients consult primary care providers. According to recent surveys, One in six Americans live with chronic or recurrent pain and pay an estimated $120 billion a year in medical costs in the United States. Oral opioids are the common treatment options for various chronic pains including joint pain, musculoskeletal pain, neuropathic pain and migraines. This narcotic-based management of pain is often associated with undesirable side effects with addictive and potential abuse.

To ensure proper usage of prescribed medications, physicians use drug screens to monitor therapeutic levels and test for presence of illegal drugs or medications that may cause a drug-drug interaction. Upon receiving quantitative or qualitative results from these drug screens, the physician may change the treatment plan for patients to improve efficacy of prescribed medications.
