L’objectif
The main objective of this study was to analyze perinatal outcomes of women with substance use disorder in pregnancy who participated in the West Virginia University Medicine Drug Free Moms and Babies Assist Connect and Encourage program (DFMB/ACE) compared to women who were not enrolled in the program.
Constatations/points à retenir
Participants of the DFMB/ACE group had a lower risk of having a preterm birth compared to the control group. The DFMB/ACE group had higher birth weight compared to the non-DFMB group. NICU admission, NAS, mode of delivery, cord toxicology, and breastfeeding rates were not statistically different between the two groups. Hepatitis C rates were significantly higher in the intervention vs. non-intervention group. We concluded that the DFMB/ACE program interventions for women with substance use in pregnancy improves some perinatal outcomes for mothers and their newborns.
