Significant factors associated with problematic use of opioid pain relief medications among the household population, Canada, 2018 / by Gisèle Carrière, Rochelle Garner and Claudia Sanmartin.: CS82-003/2021-12-15-2E-PDF
"Reliance on the use of opioids to manage pain has increased over time, as have opioid-related morbidity and deaths. In 2018, 12.7% of Canadians reported having used opioid pain relief medications (OPRMs) in the previous year. Among these people, 9.6% had engaged in problematic use that could cause harm to their health. Though socioeconomic characteristics associated with opioid-related harms have previously been reported, population-level evidence based on administrative health data lacks important behavioural and psychosocial information. This analysis extends previous research by using modelling to report factors related to the problematic use of OPRMs for the household population aged 15 and older in Canada"--Abstract, page 13.
