Actigraphy and Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome

Not Applicable
Conditions
Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Actigraphy
Registration Number
NCT03977545
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Caen
Brief Summary

The aim of our study is to analyse the correlation between actigraphy and Lipsitz scoring system in neonatal opioid abstinence syndrome.

Detailed Description

Neonatal opioid abstinence syndrome occurs after birth when opioids were used by the mother during pregnancy.

Many scoring systems, like Lipsitz scoring system, are used to diagnose and manage neonatal abstinence syndrome but they are subjective. The majority of items in these scores are motor skills items.

Actigraphy allows to measure objectively the newborn motricity. We will analyse the correlation between actigraphy and Lipsitz scoring system in four groups of newborns.
