Summary

This trial tests whether a Pain and Coordination Plan (PAC-plan) can reduce opioid use and improve quality of life in adults who have had surgery after an accidental injury. Participants receive the plan at hospital discharge, which includes an opioid management plan, a follow-up appointment with their general practitioner within 2-4 weeks, and better communication between hospital and primary care. The study compares outcomes with usual care over 52 weeks.
