Opioid overdose education for individuals prescribed Opioids for pain management: Randomized comparison of two computer-based interventions. Frontiers in Psychiatry, vol. 9, no. 34. DOI:10.3389/fpsyt.2018.00034 Introduction The researchers describe how Opioid overdose rates have increased in the United States. He/she also stated that it is difficult to spread information about current OD prevention strategies to the general population. Thus, this study evaluated a web-based intervention in three areas – opioid effects, opioid-OD symptoms, and opioid-OD response - to determine if it was a cost-effective way to spread health information to the public. Review of Literature The researchers cited 21 articles to support their study in the first section of the article. A couple of the topics that the researchers discussed included OD symptoms and opioid- OD response. They were obtained from different search engines including Google Scholar and PubMed Abstract. Opioids have caused disorders that occur when patients prescribe their own medication and/or misuse them (Huhn, Garcia-Romeu & Dunn, 2018). Thus, it is necessary to educate the general public about opioids use.
