Perinatal Outcomes
NAS is a group of conditions caused by a newborn’s withdrawal from substances they were exposed to while in the womb. Most commonly, NAS occurs when a baby is exposed to opioids; however, NAS can be a result of other substance exposures. These data show the demographic characteristics of newborns born with neonatal abstinence syndrome among live births occurring at hospitals in Philadelphia.
