Episode 6: Pain and Opioids (2018)
Manage episode 197794940 series 1509254
In 2018, one of the most frustrating discussions that residents have with their attendings, their patients and even each other is regarding narcotic pain medication. It often feels like some attendings think one acetaminophen and a hand shake is plenty of pain medication, while others would give the same patient hydromorphone. RJ and I discuss strategies for treating patients' pain when America has a national problem with opioid abuse.
