The role that male sexual partners play in the treatment outcome of drug dependent pregnant women deserves greater attention. Pregnant women enrolled in a comprehensive treatment program with drug-free (n=85) or drug-using (n=82) male sexual partners completed a relationship survey and were compared on partner and psychosocial variables. Compared with male drug-free partners, male drug-using partners had more unemployment and more current legal involvement, less education, were less likely to be supportive of the pregnant woman's recovery efforts and were more likely to give them money to buy drugs. Male drug-free partners also had fewer medical, dental, legal and transportation needs than male drug-using partners. Data from treatment retention suggests that women with male drug-using partners are retained in a comprehensive treatment for a shorter time than women with male drug-free partners. A male partner's drug-using status should be considered when treating pregnant drug dependent women.
男性性伴侣在药物依赖孕妇治疗结果中所起的作用值得更多关注。参与综合治疗项目的孕妇,其男性性伴侣有不吸毒的(n = 85)或吸毒的(n = 82),这些孕妇完成了一项关系调查,并在伴侣及心理社会变量方面进行了比较。与男性不吸毒伴侣相比,男性吸毒伴侣有更多人失业且目前有更多法律方面的问题,受教育程度更低,支持孕妇康复努力的可能性更小,且更有可能给她们钱去买毒品。男性不吸毒伴侣在医疗、牙科、法律和交通方面的需求也比男性吸毒伴侣少。治疗留存数据表明,有男性吸毒伴侣的女性接受综合治疗的时间比有男性不吸毒伴侣的女性短。在治疗药物依赖的孕妇时,应考虑男性伴侣的吸毒状况。
