ABSTRACT Background Tobacco smoking in pregnancy remains one of the few preventable factors associated with complications in pregnancy, low birthweight, preterm birth and has serious long-term health implications for women and babies. Smoking in pregnancy is decreasing in high-income countries and increasing in low- to middle-income countries and is strongly associated with poverty, low educational attainment, poor social support and psychological illness. Objectives To assess the effects of smoking cessation interventions during pregnancy on smoking behaviour and perinatal health outcomes. Search strategy We searched the Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group’s Trials Register (June 2008), the Cochrane Tobacco Addiction Group’s Trials Register (June 2008), EMBASE, PsycLIT, and CINAHL (all from January 2003 to June 2008). We contacted trial authors to locate additional unpublished data. Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials where smoking cessation during pregnancy was a primary aim of the intervention. Data collection and analysis Trials were identified and data extracted by one person and checked by a second. Subgroup analysis was conducted to assess the effect of risk of trial bias, intensity of the intervention and main intervention strategy used. Interventions for promoting smoking cessation during pregnancy (Review) 1 Copyright © 2009 The Cochrane Collaboration. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Main results Seventy-two trials are included. Fifty-six randomised controlled trials (over 20,000 pregnant women) and nine cluster-randomised trials (over 5000 pregnant women) provided data on smoking cessation outcomes. There was a significant reduction in smoking in late pregnancy following interventions (risk ratio (RR) 0.94, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.93 to 0.96), an absolute difference of six in 100 women who stopped smoking during pregnancy. However, there is significant heterogeneity in the combined data (I2 > 60%). In the trials with the lowest risk of bias, the interventions had less effect (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.94 to 0.99), and lower heterogeneity (I2 = 36%). Eight trials of smoking relapse prevention (over 1000 women) showed no statistically significant reduction in relapse. Smoking cessation interventions reduced low birthweight (RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.73 to 0.95) and preterm birth (RR 0.86, 95% CI 0.74 to 0.98), and there was a 53.91g (95% CI 10.44 g to 95.38 g) increase in mean birthweight. There were no statistically significant differences in neonatal intensive care unit admissions, very low birthweight, stillbirths, perinatal or neonatal mortality but these analyses had very limited power. Authors’ conclusions Smoking cessation interventions in pregnancy reduce the proportion of women who continue to smoke in late pregnancy, and reduce low birthweight and preterm birth. Smoking cessation interventions in pregnancy need to be implemented in all maternity care settings. Given the difficulty many pregnant women addicted to tobacco have quitting during pregnancy, population-based measures to reduce smoking and social inequalities

  • The Motherisk Alcohol and Substance Use Helpline: 10 Years of Experience and Counting
    THE MOTHERISK ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE USE HELPLINE: 10 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND COUNTING Eunji Kim, Moumita Sarkar, Yvette Navioz, Gideon Koren, Adrienne Einarson The Alcohol and Substance use Helpline; The Motherisk Program, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada ABSTRACT The Motherisk Alcohol and Substance Use Helpline at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada, is a unique telephone service providing evidence-based information on the negative effects associated with alcohol and substance use in pregnancy and lactation. We describe the characteristics of the service, the demographics of the callers, and the inquiries made during its first ten years of service. Since its inception in November 1998 until November 2008, almost 20,000 calls had been received with 60% of calls initiated by pregnant and breastfeeding women, the remainder from various health care providers. Most women exposed to alcohol and substances were of Caucasian descent (80%), employed (65%), and married (46%) with some level of post-secondary education (52%). The demographics of the callers deviate from the well-documented cohort of women at risk of engaging in alcohol and substance use in pregnancy and lactation, confirming that a selective group of women is more likely to use the services offered by the Motherisk program. Thus, further efforts are required to reach out to the subgroup of women at high risk of continuing their harmful behaviors during pregnancy and lactation. Key Words: Alcohol; pregnancy; fetal alcohol spectrum disorder; substance use; childbearing age lcohol consumption is a wide spread following gestational exposures.6-9 Fetal Alcohol social behavior with reported use by 77% Spectrum Disorder (FASD) describes the physical Aof Canadian women 15 years and older.1 and neurological abnormalities resulting from Other substances such as tobacco and illicit drugs prenatal exposure to alcohol with symptoms are also used recreationally by many women of ranging from neurobehavioral and neurocognitive childbearing age.

  • Pharmacological Treatment for Pregnant Women Who Smoke Cigarettes
    TOBACCO INDUCED DISEASES Vol. 1, No. 3: 165-174 (2003) © PTID Society Pharmacological Treatment for Pregnant Women who Smoke Cigarettes Chan BC, Koren G The Motherisk Program, Division of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology, The Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada ABSTRACT: Smoking has been associated with several concerns in pregnancy including miscarriage, preterm delivery and stillbirth. Unfortunately, approximately 12% of the preg- nant population continue to smoke cigarettes, suggesting a need for additional therapy be- yond behavioural change. This paper reviews the literature on the use of nicotine replace- ment therapy and bupropion (Zyban®) in the pregnant human population, the pharmaco- kinetics of nicotine in the pregnant woman, and current guidelines for smoking cessation for pregnant patients. There are currently four studies that have investigated the use of nicotine patch, three for nicotine gum, and registry and preliminary reports for bupropion. These studies did not show any adverse pregnancy outcomes with the use of pharmacological aid for smoking cessation. All the nicotine replacement therapy studies, with the exception of one randomized-controlled nicotine patch trial had small sample sizes and looked at short- term use of drug in the third trimester. Two studies have examined the pharmacokinetics of nicotine in the pregnant woman. The results from these studies reveal greater nicotine me- tabolism in pregnant individuals who continue to smoke during pregnancy. Current guide- lines from several organizations uniformly recommend that Nicotine Replacement Therapy should be considered if non-pharmacological therapies have been unsuccessful. Bupropion is recommended in pregnancy if the benefits outweigh the risks. There is a need for further studies on the safety and effectiveness of Nicotine Replacement therapy and bupropion in pregnancy.

  • Rates of Fetal Polydrug Exposures in Methadone- Maintained Pregnancies from a High-Risk Population
    Rates of Fetal Polydrug Exposures in Methadone- Maintained Pregnancies from a High-Risk Population Kaitlyn Delano1,2, Joey Gareri1,3, Gideon Koren1,2,4* 1 Division of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 2 Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 3 Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 4 Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada Abstract Methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) is the standard of care during pregnancy for opioid-dependency, showing efficacy in improving prenatal care and reducing risk of relapse. By design, however, MMT is only intended to prevent withdrawal thus facilitating cognitive behavioural interventions. In order to maximize the benefits of MMT, it is essential that methadone is both properly prescribed and that additional addiction treatment is concurrently administered. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of MMT engagement in high-risk pregnant women in reducing polydrug use by objective laboratory examination of neonatal meconium. Patients and Methods: Over a 29-month period, the Motherisk Laboratory at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto analyzed meconium samples as per request by social services and hospitals for drugs of abuse. Results: Of the 904 meconium samples received, 273 were tested for methadone with 164 positive and 109 negative for methadone. Almost half of the methadone positive samples (46.34%) were also positive for at least one other opioid compound, which did not differ statistically from the methadone-negative control samples (46.79%; Chi square test, p=0.94). No differences were found between the methadone positive and negative groups in rates of concurrent amphetamines, cocaine, cannabis, and alcohol use indicating a similar risk of polydrug use between pregnant women taking or not taking methadone in this population.

  • Motherisk Update Marijuana Use and Breastfeeding Josephine Djulus, MD Myla Moretti, MSC Gideon Koren, MD, FRCPC
    Pratique clinique Clinical Pract ice Motherisk Update Marijuana use and breastfeeding Josephine Djulus, MD Myla Moretti, MSC Gideon Koren, MD, FRCPC ABSTRACT QUESTION One of my breastfeeding patients is using marijuana to combat chronic pain. Is it safe for her to breastfeed? ANSWER Lactating mothers should refrain from consuming cannabinoids. Advising mothers to discontinue breastfeeding if they cannot stop using cannabinoids must incorporate the known risks of formula feeding. Cannabinoid exposure through milk has not been shown to increase neonatal risk, but there are no appropriate studies of this. In every case, nursing babies should be closely monitored. RÉSUMÉ QUESTION L’une de mes patientes allaite et consomme de la marijuana pour atténuer ses douleurs chroniques. Est-ce sans danger qu’elle allaite? RÉPONSE Les mères qui allaitent devraient s’abstenir de consommer des cannabinoïdes. En conseillant aux femmes de cesser d’allaiter si elles ne peuvent pas arrêter de consommer des cannabinoïdes, il faut aussi les aviser des risques connus du recours à l’allaitement artifi ciel. Il n’a pas été démontré que l’exposition aux cannabinoïdes dans le lait maternel augmentait les risques chez les nouveau-nés mais il n’existe aucune étude adéquate sur le sujet.
