Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome

What is it? Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) is a term for a group of problems a baby experiences when withdrawing from exposure to narcotics.

What Causes It? Almost every drug passes from the mother's blood stream through the placenta to the fetus. Illicit substances that cause drug dependence and addiction in the mother also cause the fetus to become addicted.

What Happens to the Baby? Baby At birth, the baby’s dependence on the substance continues. However, since the drug is no longer available, the baby’s central nervous system becomes overstimulated causing the symptoms of withdrawal.

What’s the Incidence of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome?

626 cases in Tennessee as of 8/30/14 compared to 564 at same point in 2013 Increase of 11%

East Tennessee continues to account for largest proportion of cases in the state (28.6%) 3rd highest rate in the state (35/1000 births)

Exposure source trends in East TN vary from those seen in all cases state-wide

Highest rates based on provisional county birth estimates

Why is Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome a Concern?

The Baby Tragedy and suffering of the babies and their caregivers. With increased likelihood of foster care, families are torn apart.

The Cost According to current statistics in Tennessee, the TennCare costs for a healthy newborn were $4,237 compared to an average cost of $66,973 for an infant born dependent on drugs, diagnosed with NAS.

The Future There may be other economic, psychological and physiological costs associated with their medical condition at birth since it is not yet known what challenges and needs these infants will have as they grow older.

What can we do in Public Health ? NAS became a reportable condition in TN on January 1, 2013 NAS Taskforce was formed July 11, 2013 – Collaborative effort with East Region and Knox NAS/PPI Sub-committee was formed on September 5, 2013
