Abstract

Each day, across America, people come to emergency service providers in need of care and support. Although not ideal, emergency departments have become the de facto outpatient treatment center in many communities. This positions emergency department providers to be ideal partners in the treatment of substance use disorders. Substance use and deaths by overdose have been of great concern for many years, and since the start of the pandemic, the trends have caused further concern. Drug overdoses have claimed the lives of more than 932 000 Americans over the past 21 years. Excessive alcohol use is a leading cause of premature death in the United States. In 2020, of people identified as needing substance use treatment in the past year, only 1.4% received any treatment. As we watch the death tolls and cost of care continue to trend upward, emergency service providers have the unique opportunity to quickly screen, intervene, and refer to help get these complex and sometimes challenging patients better care, while also avoiding the worsening of the crisis in which we find ourselves.

综合卫生保健系统紧急服务中物质使用障碍普遍筛查的影响。
每天,在美国各地,人们来到紧急服务提供者那里需要照顾和支持。虽然不理想,急诊科已经成为许多社区事实上的门诊治疗中心。这使得急诊科提供者成为治疗药物使用障碍的理想合作伙伴。药物使用和过量使用造成的死亡多年来一直令人极为关切,自该流行病开始以来,这些趋势又引起了进一步的关切。在过去的21年里,药物过量已经夺去了超过93.2万美国人的生命。在美国,过度饮酒是导致过早死亡的主要原因。2020年,在过去一年中被确定需要药物使用治疗的人中,只有1.4%的人接受了治疗。当我们看到死亡人数和护理费用继续呈上升趋势时,急救服务提供者有了独特的机会,可以快速筛查、干预和转诊,帮助这些复杂的、有时具有挑战性的病人得到更好的护理,同时也避免了我们所处的危机的恶化。
