Summary
This study tests a program designed to prevent opioid misuse in people hospitalized for a traumatic injury. Participants complete brief questionnaires about pain and opioid use risk, and receive enhanced care coordination based on their responses. The goal is to see if this adaptive approach is practical and acceptable for patients and staff, paving the way for a larger trial.

Opioid Risk Monitoring and enhanced Trauma Care Coordination
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could provide a practical, scalable way to identify and support trauma patients at risk for opioid misuse, potentially preventing addiction.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study focused on feasibility, not effectiveness. The program may not reduce opioid misuse in a larger, more diverse population.
