Abstract
BACKGROUND: While navigating the era of an opioid crises in pain management nursing, the pursuit of patient comfort and functional mobility remains the same. Another commonality in the pursuit of all clinicians is patient safety. We hope and pray that our patients achieve some form of relief in areas of acute pain practices, but at what cost is the relief achieved or is there one? Guidelines support the use of proper physiological monitoring practices to mitigate any potential adverse events that could potentiate related to opioids such as opioid-induced sedation and advancing respiratory depression and even worse, morbidity and mortality (Jungquist et al., 2019).
