    Journal:  Combating The Opioid Crisis And Its National Security Threat Through CReDO: A Multidisciplinary Solution With Disaster Medicine Implications. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 14, 2023   
    Community-based Response to Drug Overdose (CReDO) is an initiative to unite agencies, disciplines, government and private partners in one coordinated opioid emergencies response plan under nationwide standards, and can be integrated into the Disaster Medicine discipline due to the risk of mass casualty incidents involving fentanyl or its derivatives. Attention to the opioid crisis through CReDO will save lives by promoting information sharing between disciplines, shortened response time to overdose clusters, community collaboration to identify criminal distribution networks, and holistic approaches to addiction.

    Journal:  "Just another thing for me to stress off of": Responses to unintentional fentanyl use in a community-based study of people who use opioids. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 13, 2023   
    Research and medical staff have an opportunity to promote awareness of possible contamination by sharing and discussing UA test results with people who use drugs in non-judgmental manner. In addition to the widely promoted harm reduction strategy of testing drugs with fentanyl test strips, self-administered point-of-care UA, particularly after an unexpected reaction to using a drug, could provide useful information for people buying and using illicit drugs.

    Review, Journal:  Public health impact and harm reduction implications of xylazine-involved overdoses: a narrative review. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 12, 2023   
    Disparities in rates of synthetic opioid mortality differ in the eastern and western US, supporting tailored responses within each region. Harm reduction-informed public health guidelines and programs are urgently needed to promote a safer supply, strengthen the healthcare system capacity to prevent and respond to xylazine-involved overdoses, and address social and structural disparities in health outcomes.

    Clinical, Journal:  Low-dose nalmefene pretreatment reduces etomidate-induced myoclonus: A randomized, double-blind controlled trial. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 12, 2023   
    Harm reduction-informed public health guidelines and programs are urgently needed to promote a safer supply, strengthen the healthcare system capacity to prevent and respond to xylazine-involved overdoses, and address social and structural disparities in health outcomes. Intravenous injection of 0.25ug/kg of nalmefene 3 minutes prior to etomidate is more effective in preventing etomidate-induced myoclonus during general anesthesia than 1ug/kg of fentanyl.

    Review, Journal:  Strengthening pill press control to combat fentanyl: Legislative and law enforcement imperatives. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 11, 2023   
    China, the primary source of illicitly distributed pill presses, does not have laws regulating pill presses and should enact strong pill press legislation and engage in rigorous enforcement. As pill presses are integral to the final and crucial step in counterfeit fentanyl-laced pill production, pill press control should receive more legislative and law enforcement attention in the U.S., China, and Mexico.

    The findings will enable healthcare providers and policymakers to target early interventions to prevent POU and related adverse events. Overall, concordance between CS dispensing history and the drugs involved in poisoning deaths was low, suggesting a need to reevaluate the complex relationships between prescription medication exposure and overdose death and to expand harm reduction interventions both within and outside the healthcare system to reduce drug poisoning mortality.

    Journal:  Efficacy of Granisetron versus Sufentanil on Reducing Myoclonic Movements Following Etomidate: Double-blind, randomised clinical trial. (Pubmed Central) -  Sep 1, 2023   
    After evaluating the myoclonus, the full dose of narcotics (fentanyl 1 ?g/kg) and muscle relaxants (atracurium 0.5 mg/kg) were administered to patients and a suitable airway was established for them...In addition, myoclonic movements were observed at a significantly higher intensity in the control group (P = 0.001). The results obtained from the current study indicate that granisetron and sufentanil as pretreatments are effective for reducing myoclonus in patients.

    Journal:  Drug Overdose Deaths with Evidence of Counterfeit Pill Use - United States, July 2019-December 2021. (Pubmed Central) -  Aug 31, 2023   
    Illicitly manufactured fentanyls were the only drugs involved (i.e., caused death) in 41.4% of deaths with evidence of counterfeit pill use and 19.5% of deaths without evidence...Smoking was the most common noningestion drug use route among deaths with evidence of counterfeit pill use (39.5%). Overdose prevention messaging that highlights the dangers of pills obtained illicitly or without a prescription (because they might be counterfeit), encourages drug product testing by persons using drugs, and is tailored to persons most at risk (e.g., younger persons) could help prevent overdose deaths.

    Journal:  Opioid Use Disorder Stigma and Support for Harm Reduction in Rural Counties. (Pubmed Central) -  Aug 25, 2023   
    Stigma in rural communities is a treatment barrier and impacts harm reduction programming availability.Objectives: The current study utilized an observational, cross-sectional design to examine latent subgroups of stigma and differences in support for harm reduction strategies (i.e., safe injection facilities, syringe services programs, fentanyl test strips, Naloxone distribution)...Individuals with less stigma report more support for harm reduction strategies. Interventions to implement harm reduction strategies should consider varying levels of stigma and use a targeted approach to inform implementation and messaging strategies.

    Retrospective data, Review, Journal:  Intranasal analgesia for acute moderate to severe pain in children - a systematic review and meta-analysis. (Pubmed Central) -  Aug 23, 2023   
    Our review suggests that intranasal analgesics are probably a good alternative to intramuscular analgesics in children with acute moderate to severe pain; and may be an alternative to intravenous administration. Intranasal ketamine gives similar pain relief to fentanyl, but causes more sedation, which should inform the choice of intranasal agent.
