The use of electronic prescriptions (e-scripts) through the hospital’s electronic medical record platform allows physicians to fill opioid prescriptions in smaller doses, potentially limiting the total quantity of analgesics patients have access to and decreasing the potential for substance misuse. The purpose of this study is to determine how the implementation of e-scripts changed the quantity of opioids prescribed following shoulder surgeries.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>For this single-center retrospective study, data were extracted for all patients aged 18 years or more who received a shoulder procedure between January 2015 and December 2020. Total milligrams of morphine equivalents (MMEs) of opioids prescribed within the 90 days following surgery were compared between 3 cohorts: preimplementation of the 2017 New Jersey Opioid laws (Pre-NJ opioid laws), post-NJ Opioid Laws but pre-escripting, and postimplementation of e-scripting in 2019 (postescripting). Any patient prescribed preoperative opioids, prescribed opioids by nonorthopedic physicians, under the care of a pain management physician, or had a simultaneous nonshoulder procedure was excluded from this study.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>There were 1857 subjects included in this study; 796 pre-NJ opioid laws, 520 post-NJ opioid laws, pre-escripting, and 541 postescripting. Following implementation of e-scripting on July 1, 2019, there was a significant decrease in total MMEs prescribed (<em>P</em> < .001) from a median of 90 MME (interquartile range 65, 65-130) preimplementation to a median 45 MME (interquartile range 45, 45-90) MME postimplementation Additionally, there was a statistically significant decrease in opioids prescribed for all procedures (<em>P</em> < .001) and for 3 (<em>P</em> < .001) of the 4 orthopedic surgeons included in this study.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>Our study demonstrated a significant reduction in total MMEs prescribed overall, for all shoulder surgeries, and for the majority of our institution’s providers in the postoperative period following the e-scripting implementation in July 2019. E-scripting is a valuable tool in conjunction with education and awareness on the national, institutional, provider, and patient levels to combat the opioid epidemic.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74030,"journal":{"name":"JSES reviews, reports, and techniques","volume":"4 2","pages":"Pages 208-212"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S266663912400018X/pdfft?md5=55c4873eba38696d2b06049df2b7396a&pid=1-s2.0-S266663912400018X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139886141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
