Current literature suggests that opioids are ineffective for treating SAH pain despite their widespread use and perceived efficacy. There is evidence that implementation of dot phrases in note templates and electronic medical record alerts can positively influence prescriber behavior, including with reducing opioid prescriptions in the primary care setting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We assessed rates of opioid prescription in our SAH population and added a standardized dot phrase to admission and discharge summaries. This dot phrase prompted providers to answer whether the patient was being prescribed opioids, the rationale for this, and the plan for weaning.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      There was a trend towards overall reduced opioid prescription at discharge after dot phrase implementation.
