Use of alcohol during pregnancy can lead to fetal alcohol syndromeand other harms such as spontaneous abortion stillbirth low birth weight prematurity and birth defects.Dependence on alcohol and other drugs can also severely impair an individual's functioning as a parent spouseor partner and instigate and trigger gender-based and domestic violence thus significantly affecting the physical mental and emotional development of children.Pregnancy may be an opportunity for women their partners and other people living in their household to changetheir patterns of alcohol and other substance use. Health workers providing care for women with substanceuse disorders during pregnancy need to understand the complexity of the woman's social mental and physicalproblems in order to provide appropriate advice and support throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. These guidelines have been developed to enable professionals to assist women who are pregnant or haverecently had a child and who use alcohol or drugs or who have a substance use disorder to achieve healthyoutcomes for themselves and their fetus or infant. They have been developed in response to requests fromorganizations institutions and individuals for technical guidance on the identification and management of alcohol and other substance use and substance use disorders in pregnant women. They were developed in tandemwith the WHO recommendations for the prevention and management of tobacco use and second-hand smokeexposure in pregnancy. There are currently no global guidelines providing evidence-based recommendationsfor identifying and managing substance use and substance use disorders in pregnancy. While several highincome countries have developed national guidelines covering these issues low and middle income countriescurrently lack such guidance. This guideline has been primarily written for health care providers managing women from conception to birthand during the postnatal period and their infants.

Book excerpt: The aim of the American Psychiatric Association Practice Guideline series is to improve patient care. Guidelines provide a comprehensive synthesis of all available information relevant to the clinical topic. Practice guidelines can be vehicles for educating psychiatrists, other medical and mental health professionals, and the general public about appropriate and inappropriate treatments. The series also will identify those areas in which critical information is lacking and in which research could be expected to improve clinical decisions. The Practice Guidelines are also designed to help those charged with overseeing the utilization and reimbursement of psychiatric services to develop more scientifically based and clinically sensitive criteria.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of self-reported and biochemically tested marijuana use among pregnant women in California found that marijuana use during pregnancy was more common among younger women, with rates as high as 22 percent of pregnant adolescents and 19 percent of pregnant young adults (ages 19-24) screening positive for marijuana use.3 To assist clinicians and others in raising awareness of the known and potential harms of marijuana use during pregnancy, this guide focuses on the growing body of evidence related to maternal marijuana use. The evidence from population-based data on potential harms to newborns is mixed. Some studies rely on selfreported data, which can underestimate the proportion of women who are using marijuana and skew study findings. Other factors, such as concurrent substance use, stress, socioeconomic status, and others, can influence the baby's health.

This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivation is key to substance use behavior change. Counselors can support clients' movement toward positive changes in their substance use by identifying and enhancing motivation that already exists. Motivational approaches are based on the principles of person-centered counseling. Counselors' use of empathy, not authority and power, is key to enhancing clients' motivation to change. Clients are experts in their own recovery from SUDs. Counselors should engage them in collaborative partnerships. Ambivalence about change is normal. Resistance to change is an expression of ambivalence about change, not a client trait or characteristic. Confrontational approaches increase client resistance and discord in the counseling relationship. Motivational approaches explore ambivalence in a nonjudgmental and compassionate way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills a gap in the existing medical literature by providing a best-practice approach to the evaluation and acute treatment of patients presenting for emergency care with identifiable substance use and/or co-occurring psychiatric disorders. As the first interdisciplinary book to integrate psychiatric and emergency care, the text uniquely covers a myriad of serious medical conditions, acute mental status and dangerous behavioral abnormalities. The book focuses on guidelines that support emergency room physicians with little formal medical training in addiction medicine. The first section focuses on the diagnosis and management of substance-specific intoxication and withdrawal states, as well as common medical co-morbidities and disposition considerations. The book lends particular attention to the identification and stabilization of high risk medical conditions associated with each substance of abuse. The second section is psychiatrically focused, addressing the most common psychiatric symptoms and syndromes, their association with SUDs, an approach to differential diagnosis, and discussion of crucial treatment considerations for both safe ED management and post-ED disposition. A final section includes other pertinent topics, for example, the assessment of patient safety, responding to the medication-seeking patient, assessment and treatment of pregnant patients and working with adolescents and their families around substance use. Substance Use and The Acute Patient is a unique and valuable contribution to the literature for both consulting psychiatrists, emergency medicine specialists, addiction medicine specialists, and all other medical professionals who provide care for these most complex and underserved patients.
