The ORC risk score identifies patients at high risk for OIRD or oversedation from routinely collected data, enabling targeted monitoring for early detection and intervention. It can also be applied to preventive strategies-for example, clinical decision support offered when concurrent prescriptions for opioids and other sedating medications are entered that shows how the chosen combination impacts the patient's risk.
