Study Summary

There is limited guidance on the optimal management of buprenorphine perioperatively and both buprenorphine discontinuation and continuation are acceptable standards of care. Buprenorphine continuation at low analgesic dosing is also accepted, however is not provided as a potential treatment strategy by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). There is the risk of inadequate pain control necessitating opioid escalation when buprenorphine is continued. Preliminary clinical observations support buprenorphine continuation at low analgesic doses (8mg) as it adequately facilitates postoperative pain management without interrupting opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment, however to date, no prospective trial has investigated this treatment strategy in comparison to full dose buprenorphine continuation. Since optimal perioperative dosing strategies remain unknown, the purpose of this study is to investigate if buprenorphine continuation at analgesic dosing is superior to full dose buprenorphine continuation in individuals presenting for elective surgery.
