研究概览
简要总结
This study recruits pregnant women and new mothers who are at risk of substance use concerns during pregnancy or delivery. These women are followed for 6 months and randomized into two groups; they may receive services as usual, or enhanced services. Enhanced services include evidence based interventions and case management to support referrals to substance abuse treatment, and to teach strategies specifically targeted to parenting newborns.
详细描述
The dual goals of this project are to (i) improve communication and collaboration between substance abuse treatment providers, obstetricians, and child welfare providers, and (ii) to enhance child welfare outcomes for pregnant women who are at risk of substance misuse and their babies. There is a particular need for a partnership in this area as New York State implements the 2016 Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) legislation, which focuses on a multi-agency approach to the problem of substance abuse for families at risk of child welfare involvement.
Services are delivered through Montefiore's Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Women's Health (Obstetrics). Mothers-to-be who have screened at risk or tested positive for substances will be randomly assigned to receive services as usual as part of the comparison group, or to receive enhanced prenatal services as part of the program group. Program services include 3 empirically supported interventions: Motivational Enhancement to enhance intrinsic motivation to change unhealthy behaviors and support their referral to substance abuse treatment; Incredible Years to improve parenting skills, especially related to infancy and early childhood; and Contingency Management to reinforce healthy behaviors, including attendance at treatment and abstinence.
Women enrolled into the study are randomly assigned into a program or comparison group. Parent, child, and family outcomes are evaluated using self-report and administrative data.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in composite Addiction Severity Index (ASI) score from baseline
时间窗: Change between Baseline and Follow up (6 month interval)
ASI is an assessment tool which will be administered to participants to evaluate their condition in 7 key problem areas of substance use and addiction severity (i.e, medical status, employment, drug use, alcohol use, legal status, family/social status, psychiatric status). Questions generally have a score of 0 of 1 associated. For example, if the patient answers yes, they may score 1; if they answer no, they may score 0. For some items, the scoring may be reversed. 0-1: No imminent problem, treatment not indicated. 2-3: Slight problem; treatment may not be necessary. 4-5: Moderate problem, a treatment plan should be considered. 6-7: Considerable difficulty, begin a treatment plan. 8-9: Extreme problem, treatment is vital. Composite scores will be used to assign a severity rating. The higher the score, the higher the need for treatment.
