Total score ORT

Definition

  • The Opioid Risk Tool (ORT) total score categorizes patients as low (score 0-3), medium (score 4-7), or high (score 8 or more) risk for opioid abuse. Validation of this tool has shown that patients in the low risk category are unlikely to abuse opioids, patients with moderate risk have an equal likelihood of abusing and not abusing opioids, and patients with high risk are likely to abuse opioids.
