The new WHO guidelines recommend training first responders in critical interim management of an opioid overdose, including intramuscular injection of naloxone.
This annual national report describes trends in the extent of infections and associated risks and behaviours among people who injected drugs in the United Kingdom in 2013.
These guidelines were written to protect palliative care patients and their families in Uganda from physical, social, cultural, psychological and spiritual harm.
Community management of opioid overdose with naloxone should be supplemented by other measures to reduce the proportion of witnessed opioid overdoses which result in death.
