Popis: | Aim: To evaluate impact of co-morbidities on opioid use in endometriosis. Patients & m ethods: This was a retrospective analysis of data obtained from the Symphony Health database (July 2015–June 2018), which contains medical and pharmacy claims information on 79,947 women with endometriosis. Relative risk (RR) of postdiagnosis opioid use and supply duration associated with baseline co-morbidities were determined. Results: Women with endometriosis using opioids at baseline were 61% more likely to receive opioids postdiagnosis (RR: 1.61; 95% CI: 1.59–1.63). Risk of prolonged opioid supply postdiagnosis was highest for those with prolonged supply at baseline (RR: 21.14; 20.14–22.19), and was 1.32 (1.26–1.38) for patients with ≥1 co-morbidity, 1.37 (1.31–1.43) for pain co-morbidities and 1.07 (1.04–1.11) for psychiatric co-morbidities. Conclusion: Risk of opioid use after endometriosis diagnosis was greater in patients who used opioids before diagnosis. Risk of prolonged opioid use was greater if co-morbidities existed before diagnosis. |
