Chronic pain, stemming primarily from musculoskeletal conditions and severe headaches, is a growing problem in the United States, affecting as many as 43% of adults. Opioids are frequently prescribed to manage chronic pain despite limited data on their long-term efficacy and the potential risks of long-term use. In 2017, more than 47,000 people died as a result of an opioid overdose involving illicit opioids (such as heroin), illicitly manufactured opioids, diverted opioids, prescription opioids, or some combination thereof. Although it's been more than three years since the nationwide opioid crisis prompted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to release a guideline outlining safe practices for prescribing opioids to patients with chronic pain (unrelated to active cancer or palliative and end-of-life care), opioid misuse remains a significant concern. Historically, physicians have been tasked with the primary responsibility for implementing opioid safety measures, but nurses in the primary care setting are being increasingly relied on to incorporate these measures as part of their practice. In this article, we discuss the use of five tools outlined in the CDC guideline: prescription opioid treatment agreements, urine drug screening, prescription drug monitoring program databases, calculation of morphine milligram equivalents, and naloxone kits. Primary care nurses can use these tools to promote opioid safety among patients receiving opioid therapy for chronic pain.

Gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and peripartum cardiomyopathy are among the most common and often severe pregnancy-specific cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and causes of complications in pregnancy. This clinical review provides nurses with an overview of pregnancy-specific CVDs, outlines their pathophysiology, and discusses risk factors and assessment. It describes management interventions according to timing: the antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum phases are each addressed.

Over the past several decades, important advances have been made in the United States to ensure that our residents breathe clean air. Still, nearly 12 million homes in this country burn wood for heating. Globally, 3 billion people, or close to half of the world's population, depend on polluting solid fuels such as wood for daily cooking and heating. Unlike in the United States where stoves used for heating are vented, many homes in low-income countries use simple stoves that often lack chimneys, leading to toxic amounts of smoke inside and outside the home. Household air pollution from these fires is the 16th leading risk factor for death and disability worldwide. Childhood pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cardiovascular disease have all been associated with household air pollution globally, yet many nurses are not aware of this burden when caring for immigrants and refugees residing in the United States. Global organizations are working to provide access to clean cookstoves (those that run on electricity, solar power, or liquid fuel), and nurses can get involved. This is one step toward improving the lives of vulnerable populations in the United States and worldwide. This series is in collaboration with the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments (https://envirn.org).
