Neonatal abstinence syndrome and maternal opioid-Related diagnoses in the US, 2010-2017.
This study analyzed trends in neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) and maternal opioid-Related diagnosis (MOD) in the United States from 2010 to 2017. A cross-sectional analysis was done of the HCUP National Inpatient Sample and State Inpatient Database from 2010 through 2017. Diagnoses of NAS and MOD were found using the ICD-10, CM codes. Significant increases occurred in rates of NAS, from 4.0 to 7.3 per birth hospitalizations and MOD, from 3.5 to 8.2 per 1000 delivery hospitalizations. A census of 47 state databases in 2017 found a large range of NAS rates – from 1.3 per 1000 birth hospitalizations in Nebraska to 53.5 per 1000 hospitalizations in West Virginia with the same ranges found for MOD rates. In all states except Nebraska and Vermont which only had significant MOD increases, NAS and MOD rates rose significantly from 2010 to 2017.
