Opioid coping motives and pain intensity among adults with chronic low back pain: associations with mood, pain reactivity, and opioid misuse. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a major public health issue linked to opioid misuse, despite evidence showing limited effectiveness of opioids for long-term pain management.
  • The study examined 300 adults with CLBP to explore the relationship between coping motives for using opioids (like managing pain distress) and factors such as pain intensity, anxiety, and depression.
  • Findings indicate that coping motives had a stronger influence on opioid misuse than pain intensity, highlighting the need to address these motives in efforts to reduce opioid-related problems among CLBP patients.

Article Abstract

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a significant public health problem that is associated with opioid misuse and use disorder. Despite limited evidence for the efficacy of opioids in the management of chronic pain, they continue to be prescribed and people with CLBP are at increased risk for misuse. Identifying individual difference factors involved in opioid misuse, such as pain intensity as well as reasons for using opioids (also known as motives), may provide pertinent clinical information to reduce opioid misuse among this vulnerable population. Therefore, the aims of the current study were to examine the relationships between opioid motives-to cope with pain-related distress and pain intensity, in terms of anxiety, depression, pain catastrophizing, pain-related anxiety, and opioid misuse among 300 (M= 45.69, SD = 11.17, 69% female) adults with CLBP currently using opioids. Results from the current study suggest that both pain intensity and motives to cope with pain-related distress with opioids were associated with all criterion variables, but the magnitude of variance explained by coping motives was larger than pain intensity in terms of opioid misuse. The present findings provide initial empirical evidence for the importance of motives to cope with pain-related distress with opioids and pain intensity in efforts to better understand opioid misuse and related clinical correlates among adults with CLBP.
