Is There a Best Way to Reduce Prenatal Substance Abuse? Safe Passage for Children of Minnesota Podcasts
-
- Comentarios de noticias
We have been reviewing research on prenatal Substance Abuse Disorder (SUD) because of this legislation proposing a task force on the issue. The American College of Gynecologists and similar organizations have issued statements opposing mandated reporting of SUD, which they believe deters women from getting prenatal care. This (open access) article on alcohol addiction supports that view. However the organizations’ statements don’t address some nuances of the issue, and none mention the potential health consequences of SUD for children, particularly from alcohol use. Join Rich Gehrman and Jeff Montpetit for a full discussion and analysis in this week's podcast.
