FOR YOUR INFORMATION Help inform education in CNCP Canadian family physicians are being asked to participate in a University of Toronto survey about the treatment of patients with chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP). The objective of the survey is to determine FPs’ practices and knowledge in prescribing opioids for CNCP in relation to the 2017 Canadian Guideline for Opioids for Chronic Non- Cancer Pain and to determine factors that hinder or enable FPs in prescribing opioids for CNCP. The results from this survey will be compared with the results from a similar 2011 survey and be used to help inform the development of educational programs about treat- ment of chronic non-cancer pain. Completion of this survey is voluntary, and neither the researchers nor the colleges will be able to identify respondents. The survey, which is available in English and French, will be open until August 15, 2018. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Pain_Canada 28 DIALOGUE ISSUE 2, 2018 This survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
