Addiction consult service and inpatient outcomes among patients with OUD.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate how addiction consultation services affect treatment outcomes for hospitalized patients with opioid use disorder. The research compared 100 cases receiving consultation against 100 matched controls, examining medication initiation and post-discharge care. Patients who received consultation showed higher rates of starting medication treatment during hospitalization and maintaining treatment after discharge. The investigation revealed that consulted patients were more likely to receive buprenorphine prescriptions and connect with methadone programs. The findings demonstrated the value of specialized addiction services in promoting evidence-based care.

Impact of inpatient addiction psychiatry consultation on opioid use disorder outcomes.
This retrospective cohort study assessed opioid use disorder (OUD) outcomes associated with addiction consultation during hospital admission. The cohort included individuals admitted to an academic medical center between 2018 and 2023. Primary outcomes included initiating medication for OUD (MOUD), hospital length of stay, before-medically-advised (BMA) discharge, and 30- and 90-day postdischarge acute care utilization. Of 26,766 admissions with 10,501 patients with OUD, 2826 addiction consultations were completed. The consultation cohort were more likely to be young, male, and White than the controls. Consultation was associated with greater MOUD initiation (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 5.07), fewer emergency department visits at 30 (aOR, 0.78) and 90 (aOR, 0.79) days, and fewer hospitalizations at 30 (aOR, 0.656) and 90 (aOR, 0.67) days. Consultation patients were also more likely to have a longer hospital stay and leave BMA.

Management of opioid use disorder, opioid withdrawal, and opioid overdose prevention in hospitalized adults: a systematic review of existing guidelines.
This study evaluated the quality and content of existing guidelines for in-hospital opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment and management. A literature search was done on several databases, websites of relevant societies and advocacy organizations, and selected international search engines. Nineteen guidelines published between January 2010 and June 2020 met the selection criteria. The majority of guidelines were based on observational studies or expert consensus. They recommended the use of nonstigmatizing language among patients with OUD; to assess patients with unhealthy opioid use for OUD using the Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Diseases-5th Edition criteria; use of methadone or buprenorphine to treat OUD and opioid withdrawal; use of multimodal, nonopioid therapy, and when needed, short-acting opioid analgesics in addition to buprenorphine or methadone, for acute pain management; ensuring linkage to ongoing methadone or buprenorphine treatment; referring patients to psychosocial treatment; and ensuring access to naloxone for opioid overdose reversal.

Management of opioid use disorder and associated conditions among hospitalized adults: a consensus statement from the Society of Hospital Medicine.
This paper discusses the findings of a Society of Hospital Medicine working group convened to develop a Consensus Statement on the management of opioid use disorder (OUD) and associated conditions among hospitalized adults. The statement is intended for clinicians practicing medicine in the inpatient setting (e.g., hospitalists, primary care physicians, family physicians, advanced practice nurses, and physician assistants) and is intended to apply to hospitalized adults at risk for, or diagnosed with, OUD. The first step of the working group to develop the statement was to conduct a systematic review of relevant guidelines and compose a draft statement based on extracted recommendations. In the next step the working group obtained feedback on the draft statement from external experts in addiction medicine, SHM members, professional societies, harm reduction organizations and advocacy groups, and peer reviewers. This iterative development process resulted in a final Consensus Statement consisting of 18 recommendations covering the following topics: (1) identification and treatment of OUD and opioid withdrawal, (2) perioperative and acute pain management in patients with OUD, and (3) methods to optimize care transitions at hospital discharge for patients with OUD.

Differences in length of stay and discharge destination among patients with substance use disorders: The effect of Substance Use Intervention Team (SUIT) consultation service.
Addiction medicine consultation services (ACS) may improve outcomes of hospitalized patients with substance use disorders (SUD). The aim of the study was to examine the difference in length of stay and the hazard ratio for a routine hospital discharge between SUD patients receiving and not receiving ACS. The authors concluded that the Substance Use Intervention Team (SUIT) consultation service was associated with a reduced length of stay and an increased hazard of a routine discharge.

Management of opioid use disorder and infectious disease in the inpatient setting.
Interactions between patients with acute bacterial infections and acute care physicians provide an opportunity to diagnose opioid use disorder (OUD) and treat patients with medications for OUD. This paper discusses Addiction Medicine Consultation and, when this resource is unavailable, employing infectious diseases providers, hospitalists, and other clinicians to serve a valuable role in the diagnosis and treatment of OUD.

Readmissions following inpatient treatment for opioid-related conditions.
This study analyzed the relationship between hospital admission for inpatient drug detoxification and/or rehabilitation services and subsequent opioid-related readmission. The study used hospital inpatient discharge and emergency department visit data from the 大象视频Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) survey. The sample consisted of 329,037 patients from seven states with an opioid-related index hospitalization from March 2010 to September 2013. A relatively small percentage (19.4%) of patients received treatment for drug use during their hospital stay. Those patients that did receive treatment had a lower 90-day readmission rate than those patients who did not.

Effect of an evidence-based inpatient tobacco dependence treatment service on 1-year postdischarge health care costs.
In 2014, the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) implemented a Tobacco Dependence Treatment Service (TDTS) consistent with the Joint Commission (JC) standards recommending that hospitals screen patients for smoking, provide cessation support, and follow-up contact for relapse prevention within 1 month of discharge. This paper examined whether exposure to the TDTS influenced downstream health care charges 12 months after patients were discharged from the hospital.
