Missouri Infants Born with Drug Withdrawal: Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome 2006 - 2016
Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) Postnatal drug withdrawal syndrome most prevalent in opioid-exposed infants shortly after birth
Manifests in central nervous irritability, GI tract dysfunction and overactive autonomic response
Limited evidence on long-term effects
National rates of NAS increased by 300% between 1999 and 2013 –
1.5 per 1,000 births in 1999
–
6.0 per 1,000 births in 2013
