Abstract

Neonatal abstinence syndrome is a condition that is increasingly frequent in our environment. It is a condition that occurs in newborns, children of mothers who consume different types of drugs. Many studies show that the drug most frequently consumed by these young women is opioid. The symptoms of the newborns vary according to the type of drug that the mother has used, the dose and the time of exposure to the substance. This research work was carried out at the General Guasmo Sur Hospital, during the period from January 2019 to December 2019, through the selection and review of articles, magazines and publications dealing with neonatal withdrawal syndrome; Necessary steps were also taken to consult the medical records of newborns born during this period, the laboratory results of drug screening and other complementary tests. The universe was made up of patients who met the inclusion criteria mentioned in the study. The drugs that turned out to be consumed more frequently by these mothers were opiates and cocaine.
