Podcast 602: Post-Narcan Observation

Podcast 602: Post-Narcan Observation

Contributor: Donald Stader, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Not uncommon for patients presenting after opiate overdose and narcan administration to be observed for 4-6 hours
  • This has been based more on tradition than evidence
  • Observation periods for overdose may vary based on the opiate(s) used
  • Fentanyl and heroin have half lives of about 2 hours, while oxycodone and methadone have significantly longer half lives.
  • HOUR trial attempted to externally validate a scoring tool for stratification of low risk patients appropriate for discharge after 1 hour
