This article reports the overall statewide findings of an epidemiological study that included 29,494 pregnant women who had been admitted for delivery in more than 200 hospitals in California and who were tested for alcohol and other drugs via blind urine toxicology screens. Results were matched to demographic data. The article includes analysis and discussion of four major variables: race/ethnic group differences, acculturation, source of payment for birth, and prenatal care status. Regional results are also discussed. The authors emphasize the high rate of alcohol use and self-reported tobacco use in comparison to relatively low rates of illicit drug use. Alcohol use rates were fairly stable, while use of illicit drugs and tobacco tended to vary according to social and demographic variables. The findings establish the need for both broad-based and targeted prevention and intervention programs to better disseminate the risks involved in drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco, and using drugs during pregnancy.
本文报告了一项全州范围的流行病学研究的总体结果，该研究纳入了29494名在加利福尼亚州200多家医院住院分娩的孕妇，她们通过盲法尿液毒理学筛查接受了酒精和其他药物检测。结果与人口统计学数据相匹配。本文包括对四个主要变量的分析和讨论：种族/族裔差异、文化适应、分娩费用来源和产前护理状况。还讨论了区域结果。作者强调，与相对较低的非法药物使用率相比，酒精使用率和自我报告的烟草使用率较高。酒精使用率相当稳定，而非法药物和烟草的使用往往因社会和人口统计学变量而有所不同。这些发现表明，需要开展广泛和有针对性的预防及干预项目，以更好地传播孕期饮酒、吸烟和使用药物所涉及的风险。
