Medical communities are documenting an increase in the numbers of infants being born with prenatal drug exposure. Medical, educational, and social agencies are serving large numbers of these infants, toddlers, and their families. These infants and toddlers constitute a population whose short-term and long-term needs have not been adequately identified or addressed in the health, social, emotional, or developmental domains. This article discusses the pathophysiology in prenatal drug exposure and the role of the nurse when providing services to these infants, toddlers, and their families.
医学界记录到，出生时受产前药物影响的婴儿数量有所增加。医疗、教育和社会机构为大量此类婴幼儿及其家庭提供服务。这些婴幼儿构成了一个群体，其短期和长期需求在健康、社会、情感或发育领域尚未得到充分识别或满足。本文讨论产前药物暴露的病理生理学，以及护士在为这些婴幼儿及其家庭提供服务时所起的作用。
