Pre and post ALTO® intervention for patients who had an ICD-
10 final diagnosis for renal colic showed that there was a total of 0
patients from January 2023 - March 2023 (Pre-ALTO® group). From
January 2024 - March 2024 (Post-ALTO® group) there were a total
of 7 patients with renal colic. Out of the 7 patients, 28.57% (n= 2)
were prescribed opioids and 71.43% (n=5) were not. There was no
significant difference in opioids prescribed pre and post ALTO® for
renal colic (p Value = N/A). This data is represented by figure 5.

the elderly. These results show that the young adult and adult popula-
tion are a high risk for future reliance, addiction, and even overdoses
due to increased opioid prescription rates amongst other ages. United
Sates data from 2021 showed that the 35- to 44- age group is expe-
riencing the most opioid overdose deaths and an 83% increase since
2019 [13]. Results from another study also showed that the preva-
lence of prescription opioid use amongst young adults in the US are
still high despite knowing the risks of misuse [14]. These previous
study findings in conjunction with our study findings prove that dis-
covering new ways to minimize unwarranted opioid prescriptions to
at risk ages and effective patient screening tools are more important
