Article Synopsis
- The Prescription Opioid Misuse and Abuse Questionnaire (POMAQ) was created to help identify prescription opioid misuse and abuse in chronic pain patients.
- The study involved two phases with a sample of patients, using their responses and additional medical data to classify opioid use behaviors with input from clinical experts.
- The scoring algorithm for POMAQ was adjusted based on expert feedback to ensure it accurately reflected patient experiences, but further testing is needed to validate its effectiveness.
