These findings will be considered from a strength-based perspective, including how characteristics of people with lived experience of BPD might be conceptualised along the spectrum of neurodiversity.

Webcast for the launch of Australia’s first clinical care standard on opioid analgesic stewardship in acute pain, hosted by the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care.

Join the webcast

Register now for the launch of Australia’s first clinical care standard on opioid analgesic stewardship in acute pain, hosted by the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care.

Opioid analgesics have established efficacy for managing acute pain. Yet careful assessment and management is needed to deliver the benefits of opioid analgesics while minimising harms, such as respiratory depression, misuse, dependence and overdose.

The new standard outlines appropriate use of opioid analgesics following surgery and in the emergency department, for patients without major trauma. It is relevant to emergency clinicians and surgical teams, as well as members of the interdisciplinary team, such as allied health, nursing, clinical pharmacy services and acute pain services. 

Hear from the experts

Learn more about best practice use of opioid analgesics to manage acute pain including:

  • Safe and appropriate prescribing

  • Monitoring adverse effects and reviewing therapy

  • Medication management

  • Systems to support stewardship

  • Reducing risk of adverse effects and long-term harm
