On-Demand Session
Overview
This 75-minute on-demand session from the ASAM 57th Annual Conference addresses long-acting injectable buprenorphine for birthing and parenting people with OUD, featuring CTN-0080 trial results and person-centered care approaches.
Whole-person SUD care approaches health as an integrated spectrum of disease and wellness that is biological, behavioral, environmental, and social; prioritizes the individual, and efforts to address policy and economic level stressors to improve health. Treatment with LAIB formulations supports access, equity, value-based caring and optimal outcomes. Shared-decision making on choices of MOUD, "complex pain" management, toxicology and breastfeeding is a human right. The workshop will highlight opportunities for providers to be a champion for the health of their patients.
The target audience for this Introductory level session includes physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, other clinicians, researchers, residents, fellows, and students.
This session addresses the following ACGME Competencies: Patient Care and Procedural Skills, Medical Knowledge, Practice-based Learning and Improvement, Interpersonal and Communication Skills, Systems-based Practice.
This session addresses the following IPEC Competencies: Values and Ethics, Communication, Teams and Teamwork.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion, learners will be able to:
- Describe evidence and results from CTN-0080 MOMs trial, know models of initiation of LAIB, "complex pain" management and longitudinal tools to improve care for birthing people with OUD.
- Utilize ASAM tools and the 4th criteria as a holistic guideline tool to offer person-centered care and choices for MOUD for pregnant, postpartum and parenting people with OUD.
- Apply several concepts to improve skills for clinical care of newborns, utility of toxicology testing, and breastfeeding in the setting of non-prescribed opioid use and LAIB formulations.
