Week IV, Discussion Post: Care for the Client with a Substance Abuse Diagnosis
Opioids are substances extracted from opium poppy, they are a sophisticated group of prescribed drugs that are used in pain management, especially after significant surgeries. Unfortunately, when these medications are used in an uncontrolled manner, they have adverse addictive effects. These drugs are specifically designed to treat severe pain and are often prescribed following surgery or injury or for health conditions that cause extensive chronic illness such as cancer. At times, when taken in a way other than prescribed by a licensed practitioner, they can cause euphoric and pleasurable effects, making them a high demand on the streets. The death statistics resulting from opioid overdose in the United States between 1999 and 2010 increased exponentially, and it was recorded that in 2010 alone, the number of deaths recorded from opioid overdose was 16,651 deaths (Volkow, Frieden, Hyde, P. & Cha, S., 2014).
In the last 20 years, both therapeutic and illicit opioid use has escalated in the United States (Volkow et al., 2014). The total number of opioid prescriptions dispensed from the United States outpatient retail pharmacies increased from 174.1 million in 2000 to 256.9 million in 2009 (Brown, A.R., 2018). The over-prescription of opioid medications widely contributes to an increase in opioid overdose, and this has had a massive impact on the states. The United States has used more than 1 trillion dollars since the year 2001 to try and contain the pandemic.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that the total "economic burden" of prescription opioid misuse alone in the United States is $78.5 billion a year, including the costs of healthcare, lost productivity, addiction treatment, and criminal justice involvement. The increase in drugs used by injection has also contributed to the spread of diseases including HIV and hepatitis C. As we have seen throughout the history of medicine, science can be a major part of the solution in such a public health crisis. Expanding access to effective, evidence-based treatments for those with addiction and also less severe substance use disorders is critical, but broader prevention programs and policies are also essential to reduce substance misuse and the pervasive health and social problems caused by it.
Time and again, studies have found that there are high levels of correlation between mental and emotional disorders and addiction. This means that those who suffer from addiction have a higher-than-average likelihood of also suffering from a psychiatric disorder (Coon, Mitterer, & Martini, 2019). That said, it is extremely important for the Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) to recognize both physical and mental exam findings consistent with substance abuse disorder. The earlier a diagnosis is made, the better the prognosis. However, use over periods of years produces physical and psy ...

This study examined the effects of intrathecal baclofen (ITB) treatment on caregiver quality of life for children with cerebral palsy. The researchers hypothesized that caregiver physical, psychological, social, and environmental quality of life would improve from pre- to post-ITB treatment at 6 months and be sustained at 24 months. Quality of life was measured before and after ITB treatment. The results found no significant increases in caregiver quality of life domains over time. While some individuals may have benefited, on average ITB did not significantly impact caregiver quality of life. The conclusions were that caregiver quality of life appears stable following a child's ITB treatment.

This evaluation summarizes the results of a community-based, peer-support trauma recovery program that showed significant improvements in mental health. A total of 98 participants completed validated psychological assessments before and 6 months after the program. Key results included significant reductions in psychological distress, mental health disorders, addiction issues, and dysfunctional parenting behaviors. Participants also reported improvements in health, relationships, and satisfaction with the program. While the study design did not include a control group, the results provide compelling evidence that the peer-support trauma recovery model helped participants in recovering from the effects of childhood trauma.
