متن کاملStudies of cocaine-exposed human infants.
On the positive side of this rush to judgment is the valid concern for the health and development of drug-exposed children. This concern has led to a substantial effort on the part of the scientific community to understand the effects of prenatal drug exposure on the developing child. In a relatively brief amount of time there has been an explosion of research in this area including an infusion...
متن کاملSensorimotor Development in Cocaine-exposed Infants.
This study investigated effects of prenatal cocaine exposure on infant sensorimotor development. One hundred and sixty-seven 12-month-olds (74 cocaine-exposed and 93 unexposed) were assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development (BSID). Ninety-seven had previously been evaluated on the Movement Assessment of Infants and the Test of Sensory Functions in Infants at age 4 months. On the BS...
متن کاملAutonomic alterations in cocaine-exposed infants.
BACKGROUND Heart rate variability (HRV) reflects autonomic control of the heart. After intrauterine cocaine exposure, asymptomatic newborn infants within 72 hours of life have decreased HRV. It is unknown whether these alterations are transient (acute effect) or persist in older infants and possibly reflect a teratogenic effect of cocaine. METHODS This study prospectively evaluated HRV in 2- ...
