Definition of Opioid naive in pediatrics
Hi Everyone,
Does anyone have a definition of what a "not an opioid naive pediatric patient" is? We have a definition for an adult pt such as having been on morphine sulfate, hydromorphone but I was wondering if anyone has one for a pediatric patient and what doses of opioids will qualify the patient to be not an opioid naive pt.
