Prevention of Substance Use Disorder

Evaluates opioid treatment using a set of measures among six domains: drug use, HIV risk-taking behavior, social functioning, criminality, health status, and psychological adjustment.

Facilitates ongoing evaluation of patient pain and documentation of pain management. Includes sections to assess pain-related outcomes in four areas: analgesia, activities of daily living, adverse events, and aberrant drug-related behavior.

Offers a two-item version of the Graded Chronic Pain Scale intended for brief and simple assessment of pain severity in primary care settings.

Predicts aberrant medication-related behaviors among persons with chronic pain and complements current risk assessment practices to improve a clinician's ability to assess a patient's risk for opioid misuse.

Provides a quick targeted screening in clinical and research settings with an 8-item measure.

Helps clinicians better identify the presence of opioid abuse or dependence in patients with chronic pain.

Assesses patients' locations and severity of pain.

Assesses risk for addiction to opioids used to treat chronic pain with a 28-item questionnaire specifically designed for general practitioners.

Assesses frequency of use and abuse of substances (e.g., alcohol, tobacco, prescription and illegal drugs, and controlled medications) to determine if an intervention is needed.

Assesses risk for opioid abuse among individuals prescribed opioids for treatment of chronic pain with a brief self-report screening tool designed for use with adult patients in primary care settings. Patients categorized as high risk are at increased likelihood of future abusive drug-related behavior.
