Needs Statement
There is no nationally accepted standard approach to the assessment of and care for infants with neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome. There is paucity of data on behavioral and neurodevelopmental outcomes for this high-risk population. Due to this there is a need for high quality timely multicenter studies that can be readily applied to clinical practice to develop a standard approach to the assessment for and treatment of infants with NOWS. Multicenter longitudinal studies that are designed to harmonize behavioral and neurodevelopmental outcomes are needed.Target Audience

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:1. Discuss the the scope of opioid use/misuse during pregnancy and its impact on the newborn infant
2. Review the NIH HEAL initiative and active research conducted through the ACT NOW Collaborative
3. Describe how quality improvement initiatives and clinical research can be integrated to improve current knowledge in the field
4. Discuss how current research can improve the clinical care of infants with NOWS
