Journal Article
Maternal prepregnancy surgery and risk of neonatal abstinence syndrome in future newborns: a longitudinal cohort study
2019
Overview
Neonatal abstinence syndrome is increasingly prevalent, and may be related to opioid use disorders caused by postoperative prescriptions for pain control. We assessed the association of maternal prepregnancy surgery with risk of neonatal abstinence syndrome from opioid use disorders in future pregnancies.
We conducted a longitudinal retrospective cohort study of 2 182 365 deliveries in Quebec, Canada, between 1989 and 2016. The main exposure was maternal prepregnancy surgery. The main outcome measure was neonatal abstinence syndrome in offspring. We adjusted associations for maternal comorbidity and pregnancy characteristics using log-binomial regression models.
The prevalence of neonatal abstinence syndrome in the cohort was 10.7 per 10 000 births. Compared with no surgery, prepregnancy surgery was associated with a risk ratio (RR) of neonatal abstinence syndrome of 1.63 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.49–1.78). Risk was greater for 3 or more prepregnancy surgeries (RR 2.34, 95% CI 2.07–2.63) and age < 15 years at first surgery (1 surgery: RR 2.08, 95% CI 1.71–2.54; 2 or more surgeries: RR 2.79, 95% CI 2.32–3.37). Nearly all surgical specialties increased the risk of neonatal abstinence syndrome, but associations were strongest for cardiothoracic surgery (RR 4.45, 95% CI 2.87–6.91), neurosurgery (RR 3.00, 95% CI 1.56–5.77) and urologic surgery (RR 3.03, 95% CI 2.16–4.26).
Prepregnancy surgery is associated with the risk of neonatal abstinence syndrome in future pregnancies. Prescription opioids for postsurgical pain may result in opioid use disorders during future pregnancies, inadvertently increasing the risk of neonatal abstinence syndrome in offspring.
