Opioid-exposed infant clinical indicators

Objective 

We leveraged existing data from a single electronic health care system in the southeastern United States to demonstrate the feasibility of measuring quality indicators for the hospital-based care of opioid-exposed newborns using existing data infrastructure. Additionally, we identified other key variables related to the care of opioid-exposed maternal-infant dyads.

Opioid-exposed infants

Objective
Observational studies examining outcomes among opioid-exposed infants are limited by phenotype algorithms that may under identify opioid-exposed infants without neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS). We developed and validated the performance of different phenotype algorithms to identify opioid-exposed infants using electronic health record (EHR) data.
