To help you prepare for your PM&R Board Exams, we're bringing you a new series dedicated to current practices and core knowledge that you will be tested on. The AAP's Board Review podcasts are directed by Resident Physicians Margaret Beckwith, MD and Collin Byrne, MD, MSc. This episode was written and hosted by Micheal Murphy, MD and Austin Marcolina, MD, and reviewed for accuracy by Attendings Brad Schuessler, MD and Michael Carroll, MD. The objective of this episode is to improve knowledge of opioid pharmacology related to mechanism of action, receptor selectivity, conversion factors and side effects.
