The purpose of this report is to illustrate the importance of assessing for family, peer, and personal substance abuse risk factors in the case of a young adult with cancer-related pain and behaviors potentially indicative of opioid misuse (OM). A thorough clinical interview and an OM screening measure revealed important information about the patient's family and social environment. Based on this information, the treatment team acted quickly to prevent additional aberrant opioid-associated behaviors (AOBs). Despite these efforts, additional AOBs occurred; however, the case highlights the importance of family and social environments for adolescents and young adults with cancer-related pain.
本报告的目的是说明,对于一名患有癌症相关疼痛且有潜在阿片类药物滥用(OM)迹象行为的年轻成年人,评估其家庭、同伴及个人物质滥用风险因素的重要性。一次全面的临床访谈和一项OM筛查措施揭示了有关该患者家庭和社会环境的重要信息。基于这些信息,治疗团队迅速采取行动,以防止出现更多异常的阿片类药物相关行为(AOBs)。尽管做出了这些努力,仍出现了更多的AOBs;不过,该病例凸显了家庭和社会环境对于患有癌症相关疼痛的青少年和年轻成年人的重要性。
