Abstract
Commensurate with the trend of rising overdose deaths related to prescription opioid analgesics is a trend of increasing opioid prescription by clinical practitioners. Prior studies have shown that opioid prescribing decisions vary greatly among emergency department (ED) providers, but little is known about the factors that underlie these decisions. The main aim of this study was to describe the self-reported importance of different factors in a provider’s decision to prescribe opioid medications.
