59473 Clinical and demographic predictors of the need for pharmacotherapy in Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)

Abstract

ABSTRACT IMPACT: This work has the potential to help clinicians decide which infants exposed to in utero opioids, will need to be treated early or can be discharged home early based on their risk, thus reducing prolonged hospitalization OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To develop and validate a prediction model with inclusion of clinical and demographic risk factors to identify infants with NAS likely to need pharmacotherapy. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A pooled cohort of 761 infants from 5 different studies including 2 trials and 3 observational cohorts will be used to develop the model.
