The aim of this work was to create a tool outlining the standard approach applied by postanesthesia care unit (PACU) registered nurses (RNs) treating patient pain using as needed intravenous opioid range orders. Engaging PACU RNs in the development of the tool and using scenario-based training demonstrated standardized interpretation and utilization, which was validated in Joint Commission's on-site surveys. Appropriate use of this tool demonstrates that RNs can use opioid range orders to safely and effectively meet individual patients' pain management goals.</p>","PeriodicalId":14835,"journal":{"name":"Joint Commission journal on quality and patient safety","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148828445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
