Description:
This project dataset investigated pain medication prescribing patterns in adults with intellectual disabilities compared to a general population cohort. It was used to examine the impact of multimorbidity, polypharmacy and clinical/demographic factors on prescribing. It was also used to assess whether pain medication prescribing is associated with health outcomes like hospitalization and mortality. The cohort consists of over 10,700 adults with intellectual disabilities. The aim of the dataset was to increase understanding of pain medication use and its implications considering multimorbidity and polypharmacy.
