The COWS is an easy to administer clinical tool to assess withdrawal signs and symptoms. In patients who are physically dependent on opioids, the total score is a good index of patients withdrawal intensity.
The CINA consists of 13 items 1 purely subjective symptom item, 7 purely objective sign items, and 5 items that included subjective and objective components. The COWS consists of 11 items 1 purely subjective symptom item, 6 objective sign items, and 4 items that included subjective and objective components.
The COWS opioid withdrawal scale is derived from an older tool called the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment of Alcohol Scale (CIWA). The main difference between these two instruments is that COWS is used to assess symptoms of opioid withdrawal, while CIWA is used to assess symptoms of alcohol withdrawal.
The CIWA-Ar is a shortened version of a previous 15 item scale CIWA (see Sullivan 1989). This program to improve recognition and treatment of alcohol withdrawal was conducted because of a lack of validated diagnostic and clinical monitoring tools that could guide and improve treatment.
The Subjective Withdrawal Scale (SOWS) consist of 16 symptoms rated in intensity by patients on a 5-point scale of intensity as follows: 0=not at all, 1-a little, 2-moderately, 3-quite a bit, 4-extremely. The total score is a sum of item ratings, and ranges from 0 to 64.
