The REDONNA study doi.org/10.1016/j.cct.…
began from the motivation for improved & safer opioid prescribing in primary care

We aimed to educate MDs about their OWN prescribing practices using audit & feedback letters developed by the @Drug_Evidence @JanKlimas @ShawnaNarayan 1/4
They received information about the number of new opioid initiations & how they compared to the average physician. They were provided information on the (lack) of effectiveness on pain for opioid naïve patients through an educational webinar: doi.org/10.1093/fampra… (2/3)
From this study, we hope to support the uptake of quality prescribing practices that are equity-oriented and evidence-based to help patients experience less pain. (3/4)
