New Factsheets on
Opioid Use for People with Burn Injuries and Spinal Cord Injuries
The NIDILRR-funded Model Systems Knowledge Translation Center (MSKTC)
recently published two opioid use factsheets for people with burn injuries
and spinal cord injuries (SCI).
Outpatient Opioid Management for Adult Burn
Survivors: Update for Community Providers provides
information about opioid management for adults after they have been
discharged from a hospital for treatment of acute burn injury.
Opioids and Your Health explains
how opioids can affect one's health after a spinal cord injury, including
what to watch out for when taking opioids.
Both factsheets are available in English and Spanish. These
factsheets were developed in partnership with researchers from the
NIDILRR-funded Burn and SCI Model System Centers.
NIDILRR, at ACL, generates new knowledge
and promotes its effective use so that people with disabilities can perform
activities of their choice in the community. NIDILRR also works to expand
society’s capacity to provide full opportunities and accommodations for people
with disabilities.
