Neurophysiological monitoring in neonatal abstinence syndrome from cocaine.

DISCUSSION: Video-EEG recording could be considered an important and objective tool that allows the evaluation of behavioural state and clinical and neurological signs in newborns in utero exposed to psychoactive drugs and the neurophysiological definition of signs and symptoms, which cannot be evaluated by FNAST such as startles and its variability during subsequent days after birth, subclinical seizures or brain injuries.
