CBT for Catastrophizing?

Drug seeking behavior in patients with little or no real pain, has led to the opioid crisis. Until now, there was no reliable method for detecting drug seeking behavior. The Pain Validity Test from www.MarylandClinicalDiagnostics.com can predict with 95% accuracy who will have medical test abnormalities, i.e. who has a valid complaint of pain, and predicts with 85%-100% accuracy who will not have any medical test abnormalities, i.e. who is faking and drug seeking. The Pain Validity Test has been admitted as evidence in over 30 legal cases in 8 states.

Pain Validity Test to detect drug seeking behavior

Physician prescribing practices are under constant scrutiny. An Internet questionnaire will predict if a patient will have a medical test abnormality with 95% accuracy, and 100% if the patient will not. This Pain Validity Test can be used to detect drug seeking behavior in patients, at a far high level of accuracy than tests currently in use (34.4%-48.2% accuracy).. The Pain Validity test has been admitted as evidence in 30 cases in 9 states.

FIRST DRAFT 1 FIRST DRAFT 9 First Draft Erica K. Fernandez Argosy University Pain Management for Patients with Addiction Problems Thesis Statement The ability of clinicians to keep patients in check has proven to be a challenge, especially with concerns regarding the legitimacy and physical functions affecting overall pain management in patients with an addiction problem. Background The treatment modalities for chronic pain using COT in active drug users or those who are in remission present a significant challenge for clinicians who oversee the effectiveness of the intervention. Moreover, such notions are correlated to the concerns of patients experiencing a relapse to substance abuse during the duration of therapy since analgesics may obscure drug-seeking behaviours that are characteristic of addictive diseases. This results in poor treatment outcomes where patients are likely to be discharged prematurely from pain care treatment (Ballantyne & Mao, 2003). Additionally, there is the widespread misconception that chronic pain patients with an addiction problem often encounter health professionals who possess inadequate training in clinical guidelines that are related to comorbidities of chronic pain and related addiction issues. Moreover, there exists a dilemma for the treatment of abstinent and former heroin addicts as they are at a high risk of relapsing to addiction if they are exposed to opioid drugs. They also face the risk of relapsing if they are not accorded sufficient care. For people who are already on opioid medication such as methadone often experience challenges responding to pain relievers when they are hospitalized. In such as case, the fundamental principle of management denotes the prevention of withdrawals by initiating methadone for heroin users while providing additional analgesia as recommended while confirming whether the pain relief is satisfactory (Chou et al., 2009). Additionally, most physicians have developed a phobia of over prescribing narcotics as pain relievers. Perhaps this may be attributed to the fear of the legal repercussions that may ensue including the divergences in federal guidelines on matters about the use of narcotics as a pain reliever. Thus, it is the responsibility of the individual practitioner to offer pain management using opioids for legitimate standard and by the regulation of medical practice. Objective The purpose of this research is to evaluate the challenges that are faced by clinicians in pain treatment for patients with addiction problems. On the other hand, the study focuses on offering a counter-argument to the thesis by providing ideal solutions for pain management for patients with SUDs. Additionally, the research intends to highlight the complex interconnection that exists between pain management and addiction to opioids. Supporting Points For clinicians, the hardest challenge is perhaps knowing the right way to handle patients who require pain medication, ...

The Pain Validity Test can predict which patient will have abnormal medical test results with 95% accuracy, and surgical abnormalities with 94% accuracy. This on-line questionnaire takes only 5 minutes of staff time to administer, and takes only 15 minutes of patient time.Results are available immediately. This test can be used to document "medical necessity" for insurance pre-authorization for testing and surgery.

People in Glasgow are more likely than other UK citizens to die prematurely, even when socio-economic deprivation is taken into account. This excess mortality is largely due to problem substance use, suicide and violence: the 'Glasgow Effect'. There are compelling reasons to believe that experiences in utero and early childhood largely explain the Glasgow Effect through programming of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis, through learned patterns of attachment to caregivers and through other learned behaviours. Several early indicators of vulnerability can now be identified and doctors should pay attention to them in the same way as they pay attention to blood pressure readings. Lecture given to the Glasgow Southern Medical Society on Thursday 8th November 2012 by Prof. Phil Wilson, Professor of Primary Care and Rural Health, University of Aberdeen. http://www.gsms.org.uk
