War on Drugs: U.S. Senate panel approves Bill for Safety of Babies with NAS Health Articles | March 19, 2016
A U.S. Senate committee on March 16, 2016 cleared a bill aimed at improving the health and safety of babies born to mothers who used heroin or other opioids during pregnancy. Claiming that the bill was prompted by its investigation in 2015 Nike Air Max Deluxe Suomi , a Reuters report said it will now move to the Senate floor.
The news agency had "found 110 cases of children who were exposed to opioids while in the womb and who later died preventable deaths at home" last year. "No more than nine states comply with a 2003 law that calls on hospitals to alert social workers whenever a baby is born dependent on drugs, Reuters found," the agency reported.
America’s NAS concern
The problem of opioid addiction in the United States, especially among women of childbearing age, has become a big concern today. It leads to drug withdrawal symptoms in newborns Nike Air Max Trainer 1 Suomi , known as neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). NAS refers to a group of symptoms experienced by a baby when the mother takes opiate or narcotic drugs such as heroin, codeine, oxycodone (OxyContin) methadone or buprenorphine during pregnancy.
These addictive drugs find their way through the placenta, which connects the baby to the mother’s womb, making the baby addicted along with the mother. As the baby is dependent on the drug when still in the mother’s womb Nike Air Max Motion Suomi , but no longer gets the drug after birth, he or she may experience withdrawal symptoms.
Blame it on rise in number of opioid prescriptions
National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) director Dr. Nora Volkow said in an article published in the British Medical Journal in January 2016 that an increase in the number of opioid prescriptions to pregnant women has resulted in a steep rise in NAS cases among newborn babies.
Scientists, at times, may not be aware of the long-term effects of opioid abuse on the newborns, but a few addictive mothers do notice cognitive impairments in their children. Children afflicted with NAS may show symptoms like irritability Nike Air Max Speed Turf Suomi , seizures, shaking, trouble in eating and sleeping.
“Opioids should be reserved for pregnant women with severe pain that cannot be controlled through more benign means, and ideally limited to a short-term use,” said Dr. Volkow.
