Patient-provider shared decision-making, trust, and opioid misuse among US veterans prescribed long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain.
This article examined the role that trust in a prescribing provider has on shared decision-making and opioid misuse in opioid-specific pain management. A secondary analysis of data from a prospective cohort study was conducted of US Veterans (N = 1273) prescribed long-term opioid therapy (LTOT) for chronic non-cancer pain. Patient-provider shared decision-making had a total significant effect on opioid misuse, in the absence of the mediator, such that higher levels of shared decision-making were associated with lower levels of reported opioid misuse. When trust in provider was added to the mediation model, the indirect effect of shared decision-making on opioid misuse through trust in provider remained significant.
