HOW DOES PRENATAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE COUNT AS TRAUMA OR ABUSE TO THE NEWBORN????
• Trauma – a deeply distressing or disturbing experience; physical
injury; an emotional response to a terrible event or experience
• Abuse – verb
• Use (something) to bad effect or for a bad purpose, misuse
• Treat (a person or animal) with cruelty or violence regularly or repeatedly
• Abuse – noun
• Cruel and violent treatment of a person or animal
• Abuse – can be physical, sexual, emotional, verbal or in combination
OBJECTIVES
• Understand the prevalence of prenatal substance abuse and the potential number of pregnancies and babies affected
• Be familiar with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome
• Understand the effects of maternal prenatal substance abuse on the baby – before, during and after birth
• Discuss the cost to society of substance abuse in pregnancy and its consequences for the mother/baby/family
• Cost of care, Cost in Lost Future Potential for Society
NATIONAL STATISTICS
Illicit Drug Use Among Pregnant Women in the US by Age, 2012-2013
• Age 15-17 years 14.6% (18.0%) (15.7)
• Age 18-25 years 8.6% (9.0%) (7.4)
• Age 26-44 years 3.2% (3.4%) (1.9)
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Admin,Results from the 2012 National Survey on Drug Useand Health: Summary of National Findings, NSDUHSeries H-46, HHS Pub. No. (SMA) 13-4795.
SUBSTANCES ABUSED IN PREGNANCY
• Illicit Drugs - Polysubstance Use is the NORM
• Tobacco
• Other Forms of Nicotine
• Alcohol
• Prescription Drugs, especially Narcotics/Opioids
TOBACCO – MARKER FOR OTHER SUBSTANCE ABUSE
• “women who had smoked ….. were 8x more likely to use alcohol or drugs during pregnancy than women who had done neither”

PRESCRIPTION OPIOID EPIDEMIC
• Patrick et al. JAMA. 2012;307(18):1934-1940. Data 2000-2009
• Maternal opiate use increased from 1.19 to 5.63/1000 live births
• Patrick et al Pediatrics 2015;135(5):842-850.
• Rx Data linked to Vital Stats for mothers enrolled in Tennessee Medicaid 2009-2011 (n=112,029 pregnancies)
• ~ 1 in 3 (31,354 = 28%) Pregnant Women used at least 1 opioid
• Quarterly NAS rate increased from ~6 to 10.7/1000 live births
• Compared to Women who did not have opioid Rx:
• Depression (5.3% vs 2.7%)
• Anxiety Disorder (4.3% vs 1.6%)
• Tobacco Use (41.8% vs 25.8%)
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY – MATERNAL EFFECTS
• Similar mechanism of action for almost all addictive drugs – alteration in pathways for reward.
• Through complex neurochemical interactions, various chemicals act to increase dopaminergic pathways.
• Negative feedback loops created to inhibit dopamine uptake to attenuate the reward mechanism of the brain.
DETECTION/TESTING
• Urine Drug Screening – Mothers during Pregnancy; time of delivery
• Urine Drug Testing of Newborn – must be done immediately; sampling very time dependent
• Umbilical Cord Tissue Testing – historical exposure
• 12/13 drug panels identify up to 30 different drug and alcohol biomarkers
• Meconium – time dependent; historical exposure
• Hair Analysis (research)

COMMON DRUGS THAT CAN CAUSE WITHDRAWAL +/-NAS
Opiates and narcotics
• Codeine • Fentanyl• Heroin • Meperidine (Demerol) • Morphine • Pentazocine• Propoxyphene
• Chlordiazepoxide• Diazepam and lorazepam• Buprenorphine• Methadone (96hrs-2wks after
birth)
Other drugs
• Barbiturates • Caffeine • Cocaine • Selective serotonin reuptake
inhibitors (SSRIs)
• Antihistaminics (Diphenhydramine, Hydroxyzine)
• Ethanol • Marijuana • Nicotine
• Phencyclidine • Meprobamate• Glutethimide• Ethchlorvynol
NATIONAL INSTITUTE ON DRUG ABUSETOPICS IN BRIEF 2011
• Prenatal Exposure to Drugs of Abuse – May 2011 Research Update
• 2008-2009 Combined Data from National Survey on Drug Use and Health
• Confirmed ADVERSE outcomes from exposure to Nicotine, Alcohol, Cocaine, Marijuana and other Illicit Drugs
• However….this statement: “…although use of heroin (an opiate) during pregnancy has been associated with low birth weight, the impact of prescription opiate abuse on pregnancy outcomes is NOT WELL UNDERSTOOD
WHAT WE KNOW IN 2016
• Prescription Opiate Use/Abuse in Pregnancy Results in Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome
• Combined Use with Tobacco, Alcohol, and/or other Illicit Drugs worsen the effects on the fetus and newborn
• Increased prematurity, low birth weight, congenital defects including strokes and brain defects, other complications after birth
• Longer hospital stays and higher cost of care in the hospital and out
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY – FETAL EFFECTS
• Impact on developing brain most critical.
• Two broad classes of fetal brain insult:
• First 20 wks of gestation – damage during cytogenesis and cell migration
• Second 20 wks – damage during brain growth and differentiation.
• Continuous use - disruption of complicated neural pathways affects developing brain’s ability to learn and mature.
• Other organ effects – especially when polysubstance abuse: strokes, vascular accidents (intestinal complications – atresias, ?gastroschisis), FAS
NEONATAL EFFECTS
• Acute Effects – NAS
• Collection of behavioral and physiological signs and symptoms due to withdrawal from exposure to narcotics
• Long Term Effects – Learning, Social
• Behavioral, related to effects on developing brain (functional/structural), not withdrawal
FETAL/NEONATAL EFFECTS –ACUTE/EARLY
• Withdrawal – like symptoms (behavioral; marijuana, cocaine, meth): irritability, trembling, poor state regulation, poor sleep patterns
• Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome – true withdrawal symptoms that may benefit from pharmacologic therapy
http://d15gtop1hlgyun.cloudfront.net/content/pediatrics/134/2/e547/F2.medium.gif
A schematic illustration of the mechanism of opioid withdrawal in neonates. Lack of
opiates in a chronically stimulated state leads to the upregulation of cyclic
adenosine monophosphate, which leads to increased production and release of
various neurotransmitters through complex mechanisms. Withdrawal is the result of
increased production of noradrenaline, acetyl choline, corticotrophin, and other
substances, as well as the decreased production of serotonin and dopamine. These
mechanisms may be able to explain most of the signs that are characteristically
seen in neonates with abstinence syndrome.
NAS SYMPTOMS
Irritability
Crying
Tremor
Hypertonicity
Generalized convulsions or Sz
Sleeplessness
Sweating
GI upset
Loose Stools
Yawning
Sneezing
Hiccups
Excessive Suck
Poor Feeding
Emesis
SCORING SYSTEMS – CHALLENGES IN ASSESSING NAS
• ALL Scoring Systems are based on opiate withdrawal; based on term newborns
• Intended for NAS to determine need for therapeutic intervention – with or without the aid of medication(s)
• Gold Standard – Finnegan Scoring System
• 21 items assessed/scored individually
• Inter-rater variability
• Modified Finnegan
• Others –
• Neonatal Withdrawal Inventory
• Neonatal Narcotic Withdrawal Index
• Neonatal Brazelton Neurobehavioral Scales
• Neonatal Network Neurobehavioral Scales
DECISION FOR TREATMENT
• Consistency is important – Protocols help improve outcomes, decrease length of stay
• Train all care givers and audit for maintaining appropriate inter-rater reliability
• Decide which scoring system is best for your facility
• Thresholds for treatment
• Nonpharmacologic/Supportive Treatment
• Pharmacologic Therapy
. eFIGURE 3A management plan for NAS in neonates. Medications are to be
initiated, increased, decreased, or discontinued depending on the Finnegan score.
Morphine can be initiated at a higher dose if scores are high; for example, if the
scores are 17 to 20, morphine can be started at 0.12 mg per dose, and if the
scores are ≥25, morphine can be initiated at 0.20 mg per dose.49 Morphine dose
can also be escalated by >10% for higher scores.21 Methadone can be substituted
for morphine for opioid withdrawal. Cardiopulmonary monitoring of the infant is
preferred during the acute stage.
MANAGEMENT OF THE DRUG EXPOSED NEONATE
• Do not use Naloxone
• Start NAS scoring
• Conservative measures for all
• Pharmacologic therapy if indicated
• Long term follow up – neurodevelopmental sequelae, child safety, family health, learning challenges
• CNS imaging if delayed developmental milestones
LONG-TERM EFFECTS (NOT WITHDRAWAL)
• Early phase: hyperactivity, disturbed sleep and increased lability of state last up to 12 wks- 6months. Hutchings et al
• Difficulty being consoled.
• Abnormal sleep patterns
• increase in rapideye-movement sleep
• decrease in quiet sleep
• increase myoclonus sleep
• Prolonged sucking bursts, fewer pauses, more feeding problems and increased arousal (sleeping, drowsy, alert, fussy/crying)
• More reactive to increases in the level of stress
• Poor tolerance to environmental changes
• Hypertonicity subsides after 6-7 months Hayford et al, Dinges et al
LONG TERM EFFECTS
• Opiate-exposed: a poor response to visual stimuli, decreased orientation to auditory stimuli, and deficient interactive behavior. Wagner et al, Strauss et al
• Methadone-exposed: had a 3.7-fold higher risk of SIDS compared with nonexposed controls Szeto et al, Hutchings et al
• Heroin-exposed: had a 2.3-fold higher risk of SIDS Hutchings et al
• Cocaine-exposed: infants displayed significantly greater state lability and shorter sleep bouts, fussed or cried more often, and spent less time asleep and more time in transitional states. Eiden et al
• Late phase: >7months: impaired organizational and perceptual abilities, poor self-adjustment and in situations requiring motor inhibition, heightened activity Hutchings et al

PRENATAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE- SOCIAL DILEMNA
• Attachment disorders
• Vicious cycle of poor bonding, parental neglect, attachment disorders lead to high behavior in children and adolescents
• Altered state regulation, attention, and behavior affect learning
• Unmeasured LOSS to Society – Intellectual Potential, Income Potential, Life Long Effects for the Baby/Family
PRENATAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE- SOCIAL DILEMNA
• Multi-generational social challenges
• Increased incidence of child abuse
• Poor adult role models
• Prenatal effects on developing brain has long lasting effects that last a lifetime
• Dysfunctional/Unsafe home environment -potential exposure to toxic chemicals in home environment; poor parenting skills; vicious cycle
PERINATAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE- SEQUELAE
• Tobacco use can worsen the growth restriction.
• Concurrent exposure to alcohol increases pathologic effects on developing brain.
• Damaging effects on dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons (brain cells/pathways) potentially permanent.
• Selective structural cortical changes as well as dopamine transporter and receptor dependent neurotransmission.
PERINATAL SUBSTANCE ABUSE –POTENTIAL FOR INTERVENTION
• Plasticity in developing brain.
• Supportive environmental influence and positive role modeling can impact children’s outcome.
• Better understanding of longterm effects on learning and behavior to provide optimal intervention at home and school.
NEONATAL ABSTINENCE SYNDROME -POLICY PERSPECTIVE
• 2009 Subtance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Report –“Substance-Exposed Infants: State Responses to the Problem”
• Provided a 5-point intervention framework to organize prevention and intervention opportunities for opioid – dependent women and their children
• States attempting to develop Universal Screening Tools to Assess Risk
• Federal Legislation: November 2015 President Obama signed into Law
• Protecting our Infants Act – directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to identify and make available recommendations for the Dx and Rx of NAS, evaluate and coordinate federal efforts to research and respond to NAS, and assist state health agencies with data collection efforts
KO ET AL. MMWR AUGUST 12, 2016. VOL 65:799-802
• Incidence of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome – 28 States, 1999-2013
• NAS incidence increased 300% : 1.5 to 6 per 1000 live births
• In 2013, range 0.7/1000 (Hawaii) to 33.4/1000 (W. Va.) hospital births
• Source – State Inpatient Databases, Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project
• Passive surveillance of NAS utilizing public data to help states successfully target prevention and treatment measures.
• Some states (Florida, Georgia, Kentucky and Tennessee have made NAS a reportable condition to state health departments.
• “As part of the Protecting Our Infants Act of 2015 CDC provides technical assistance to states and American Indian tribes to improve NAS surveillance and support implementation of effective public health measures.”
LOCALLY….IN ALASKA
• Between 2008-2014 there were 175 infants treated as
inpatients on the Alaska Neonatology Service between ARH
and PAMC – Alaska Neonatology Database.
• The length of stay in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit,
related to NAS, was between 3-86 days when corrected for
prematurity.
• Average length of stay was approximately 30 days- After
correction for prematurity.
STATEWIDE COLLABORATIVE WORK WITH VERMONT OXFORD NETWORK NEONATAL ABSTINENCE SYNDROME QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT -2015
• PAMC led Statewide Collaborative Quality Improvement Initiative involving multiple facilities statewide in Anchorage and Fairbanks
• Each facility participated in webinar based learning modules
• Certificate of Excellence when >90% of staff completed all learning modules
• PAMC, FMH, ARH have all developed guidelines for management of NAS affected babies
• Treatment guidelines include non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic measures
• Pharmacologic guidelines driven by NAS scores, protocol driven to optimize concensus approach

ALASKA REGIONAL HOSPITAL – Unit within the NICU
The NEST has developed best practice based protocols following an extensive period of research, study, and academic introspection of many past abstinence experiences. Based on the following principles:
Parents should be parenting their own children and the wellness of the family (in it’s entirety) is absolutely critical to the future of these patients.
• The unit is designed so that mother and infant may stay together 24/7• The family will be the primary caretakers of their child.• The NEST provides aggressive and specialized social support services available
with a NEST based Clinical Social Worker.
