Substance use disorders in pregnancy: clinical,  ethical, and research imperatives of the opioid epidemic: a report of a joint workshop of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and American Society of Addiction Medicine

Although perinatal substance use disorders, particularly those that involve opioids, have become a major public health issue in the United States, comprehensive, evidence-based guidance for the prevention and management of these disorders during pregnancy is lacking. Leaders in obstetric care, addiction medicine, mental health, and pediatrics gathered for a 2-day workshop, “Substance Use Disorders in Pregnancy,” that was held in conjunction with the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine’s 38th Annual Pregnancy Meeting.
