Total Credits: 1 including 1 AOA Category 1-A Credit(s), 1 Opioid Credit
The CDC tells us that guidelines aren't meant to be policy or followed strictly. We need to treat our patients individually. What do we do when our patients don't fit the guidelines, or the study evidence-based medicine doesn't cover them? This session will question evidence-based medicine guidelines. The speaker will review possible alternative scenarios and will look at barriera and boundaries in healthcare. This session is meant to be an exploration of practice so that physicians can define their own boundaries when working with patients on substances for pain or other reasons.
