Postoperative surgical trainee opioid prescribing practices (POST-OPP): A national survey.

CONCLUSION: In this survey, nearly two-thirds of surgical residents felt that they were inadequately trained in opioid pre-scribing. Our findings additionally suggest that improving education may result in increased resident comfort with man-aging surgical pain, potentially leading to more responsible opioid prescribing. Further work will facilitate residency pro-grams' development of educational curricula for opioid prescribing best practices. PMID: 31637683 [PubMed - in process]
