Potential Input Prompts for Opioid-GPS

Some of the potential input promptings we are considering (yet to be finalized):

- if app, a sliding pain scale of 0-10; if SMS, simple input (could expand to ask in the last 24 hrs, average pain out of 10, least out of 10 and worst out of 10)
- patient's diagnosis
- geographic location
- pain medication (morphine) indicated - yes or no
- morphine readily available - yes or no
- estimated time to get morphine (hours) - 0 = available now; 88 (sideways would be infinity, haha) could equate to not available in foreseeable future
- if morphine prescribed & taken by patient, was it effective: yes or no (could give info if appropriate amount available, maybe there were side effects which would mean an alternative required, etc)
