  "abstract": "Timely and effective analgesia is a core component of Emergency Medicine (EM) practice. The Royal College of Emergency Medicine (RCEM) in the UK pain standards highlight the importance of early effective analgesia for adults presenting to emergency departments (EDs). These standards include the use of intravenous opioids for severe pain.1 However, the extent to which nurses deliver different intravenous opioids varies across the UK. Our work aimed to describe national nurse-led intravenous morphine and intravenous fentanyl administration in adult type 1 EDs.",
