pubmed:abstractText |
Constipation is one of the most frequent adverse drug reactions occurring in hospital inpatients. There is no evidence base for the use of laxatives in orthopaedic patients on opioids. The aim of the study was to determine the current nature of opioid and laxative prescribing, and the incidence of constipation in patients who require emergency neck-of-femur (NOF) surgery.
