Alcohol, Drugs and Medication in Pregnancy (eBook, ePUB)

The Long Term Outcome for the Child
Redaktion: Preece, Philip M; Riley, Edward P

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The exposure of infants to the influence of intrauterine chemicals such as drugs and alcohol has a number of potential risks. The authors set out the evidence for these outcomes, and demonstrate that decisions about care and management can and should be made as early as possible. This should allow professionals to provide protective management and prevent the delays that are so often seen in this area of medical and social care. The international team of contributors cover a range of intrauterine chemicals that are potentially neuroactive, including medicinal drugs such as antiepileptics, antidepressants and antipsychotics, as well as drugs of abuse, including alcohol, opiates, and recreational drugs such as cannabis and tobacco. They review the teratogenic action of some of the chemical processes and the relationship of exposure to the stage of pregnancy. Some agents alter anatomic structure; others alter the chemical balance of neurotransmitters and may thus alter the regulation of brain function, with profound effects on the child's behaviour and propensity to behavioural disturbances. The book explores strategies to support these children and those who care for them, including statutory agencies.
