Analgesia and Pain Management01:25

Analgesia and Pain Management

1.4K
Pain is critical to various clinical pathologies, provoking an urgent need for effective management. Pain, whether acute or chronic, is a complex neurochemical process. Its alleviation depends on the type, with nonopioid analgesics effective for mild to moderate pain, such as musculoskeletal or inflammatory pain, while neuropathic pain responds best to anticonvulsants, tricyclic antidepressants, or serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. For severe acute or chronic pain, opioids may be...

Opioid Analgesics: Synthetic and Semisynthetic Opioids01:15

Opioid Analgesics: Synthetic and Semisynthetic Opioids

831
Synthetic and semisynthetic opioids are pivotal in pain management and tackling opioid addiction. Semisynthetic opioids, including morphinans (morphine derivatives), oxycodone, oxymorphone, hydrocodone, and hydromorphone, have improved pharmacokinetic profiles compared to morphine. Additionally, heroin and 6-MAM (6-Monoacetylmorphine) show better CNS penetration than morphine due to heightened lipid solubility. Hydromorphone, a potent opioid, undergoes hepatic metabolism to form the active...

Opioid Analgesics: Morphine and Other Natural Cogeners

779
Opioids are a class of drugs that mimic endogenous opioid peptides and act on opioid receptors, and help in pain relief. These compounds are classified as natural, synthetic, or semi-synthetic. Natural opioids, like morphine, codeine, and thebaine, are derived from the opium poppy plant (Papaver somniferum or Papaver album) and are termed opiates. Synthetic opioids are artificial, while semi-synthetic opioids combine natural and synthetic compounds. Morphine, a prototypical opioid, possesses a...

Acute Pancreatitis II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

657
Acute pancreatitis presents a complex medical emergency characterized by rapid onset inflammation of the pancreas, demanding timely diagnosis and management to prevent complications. The condition primarily manifests through severe upper abdominal pain that often radiates to the back. This pain intensifies following the consumption of fatty foods. Accompanying symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, fever, dyspnea, cyanosis, and jaundice can vary in intensity but significantly...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Public Health
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • The opioid epidemic highlights gaps in health sciences curricula regarding pain management and substance use disorders.
  • There is a critical need for enhanced interprofessional education to address the opioid crisis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate an online educational module on the opioid epidemic for health sciences students.
  • To improve understanding of pain management, opioid safety, and substance use disorder identification and management.

Main Methods:

  • An interprofessional team developed a 1-hour online module including pre/posttests and satisfaction surveys.
  • The module covered acute perioperative pain, opioid safety, abuse, and diversion.
  • 250 dental, pharmacy, and nursing students participated.

Main Results:

  • Significant knowledge score increases were observed from pretest to posttest (p < .001).
  • Learner satisfaction was high, with students reporting a valuable learning experience.
  • The module was effective across dental, pharmacy, and nursing student populations.

Conclusions:

  • The developed interprofessional online module is an effective educational tool for health professions.
  • The module successfully enhanced student knowledge regarding critical aspects of the opioid epidemic.
  • Further research should explore the application of this knowledge to clinical practice.
