Higher ORT scores indicate higher potential opioid misuse risk and support stronger safety planning and follow-up.
Use during chronic pain assessment when opioid therapy is being considered or reviewed.
ORT is a screening aid and does not diagnose substance use disorder; predictive performance varies by population and setting.
