Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this minimal risk, observational survey is to document the accuracy, benefits, and how qualitative and quantitative results affect patients' plan of care.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pain is the most common reason patients consult primary care providers. According to recent surveys, One in six Americans live with chronic or recurrent pain and pay an estimated $120 billion a year in medical costs in the United States. Oral opioids are the common treatment options for various chronic pains including joint pain, musculoskeletal pain, neuropathic pain and migraines. This narcotic-based management of pain is often associated with undesirable side effects with addictive and potential abuse.

To ensure proper usage of prescribed medications, physicians use drug screens to monitor therapeutic levels and test for presence of illegal drugs or medications that may cause a drug-drug interaction. Upon receiving quantitative or qualitative results from these drug screens, the physician may change the treatment plan for patients to improve efficacy of prescribed medications.
