No Shortcuts to Safer Opioid Prescribing
Open accessAbstract
No Shortcuts to Safer Opioid Prescribing The CDC’s 2016 Guideline for Prescribing Opioids for Chronic Pain has largely been embraced by the medical and health policy communities. Unfortunately, some policies and practices purportedly derived from the guideline have been inconsistent with its recommendations.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“In order for the process to be successful, patients require a clear commitment to stop opioids and need considerable support; 5 incautious tapering can do harm, shaking patient confidence and reducing the chance of successful deprescribing and should not be imposed.12,13”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
