Editor-in-Chief Alan Jette interviews Dr. Davenport, who provides a population health perspective and actionable suggestions for clinicians. He notes that “even back in 1999, Boissonnault found that over a quarter of patients had a prescription for narcotics in outpatient physical therapy practice, so… the risk for opioid addictions in the average physical therapy outpatient waiting room is potentially higher than out in the general community.” Dr. Davenport is coauthor of “Navigating the Intersection Between Persistent Pain and the Opioid Crisis: Population Health Perspectives for Physical Therapy.” https://academic.oup.com/ptj/article-abstract/100/6/995/5771046
