Pain and Analgesic Utilization in Medically Underserved Areas: Five-Year Prevalence Study from the Rochester Epidemiology Project.
Abstract
There is a paucity of data on pain diagnoses and analgesic utilization in medically underserved areas (MUAs). This study compared the prevalence of pain diagnoses and analgesic medication use between MUAs and non-medically underserved areas (N-MUAs) in Southern Minnesota and Western Wisconsin using the Rochester Epidemiology Project (REP) database.
