Opioid dispensing in relation to arthroscopic knee surgery in Denmark from 2006 to 2018
CONCLUSION: About 7% of patients had an opioid dispensed within the first seven days after discharge following arthroscopic knee surgery. The incidence of opioids dispensed increased for all investigated procedures from 2006 to 2018. In the same period, the average amount of opioids dispensed within the first seven days after discharge decreased.FUNDING: None.TRIAL REGISTRATION: Not relevant.PMID:37622647 (Source: Danish Medical Journal)
