The Mayo Clinic Opioid Conference: Evidence, Clinical Considerations & Best Practice 2021 aims to highlight the shift in guidelines and public concern regarding the use of opioids in medical practice. This course provides the most up-to-date information regarding the appropriate indication for opioids in clinical practice. Topics cover the basics of opioid pharmacology and selection, evidence-based guidelines for opioid management, opioid tapering and legal considerations, as well as medical and interventional alternatives to opioids. In addition, the course covers a broad range of issues, including opioid use disorder and difficult patient conversations and guidelines to standardize the practice of opioid prescribing. This course includes lectures by experts in the field of pain medicine and opioid management as well as question and answer sessions.

Course Highlights:

  • Learn the most up-to-date information regarding the appropriate use and management of opioids in clinical practice.
  • Discuss the basics of opioid pharmacology, selection, and side effect management, along with evidence-based guidelines for opioid management, tapering, and legal considerations, and medical and interventional alternatives to opioids.
  • Address opioid use disorder, difficult patient conversations and guidelines to standardize the practice of opioid prescribing.

Target Audience

This topic is important and has become a more visible public health issue. All fields within medicine that provide direct patient care are impacted, including medical, surgical and outpatient settings. All providers who prescribe (MD, DO, NP, PA, CNS) or administer (nurse, pharmacist, etc.) opioids to patients would benefit from attending this course. This course is particularly relevant for primary care providers that maintain and monitor patients on chronic opioid therapy.

  • Determine and optimize treatment for patients suffering from pain and comorbid depression/anxiety.
