Yet in the 20 years since it was first described in the medical literature, fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) has proved to be a stubborn problem, with consequences as serious as those of the more widely publicized "crack babies." This volume discusses FAS and other possibly alcohol-related effects from two broad perspectives: diagnosis and surveillance, and prevention and treatment. In addition, it includes several real-life vignettes of FAS children. The committee examines fundamental concepts for setting diagnostic criteria in general, reviews and updates the diagnostic criteria for FAS and related conditions, and explores current research findings and problems associated with FAS epidemiology and surveillance. In addition, the book describes an integrated multidisciplinary approach to research on the prevention and treatment of FAS. The committee Discusses levels of preventive intervention. Reviews available data about women and alcohol abuse and treatment among pregnant women. Explores the psychological and behavioral consequences of FAS at different ages. Examines the current state of knowledge about medical and therapeutic interventions, education efforts, and family support programs. This volume will be of special interest to physicians, nurses, mental health practitioners, school and public health officials, policymakers, researchers, educators, and anyone else involved in serving families and children, especially in high risk populations.Fetal alcohol spectrum disordersFetusEffect of drugs onFetusDiseasesPregnancyComplicationsDiseasesFetal Alcohol Spectrum DisordersFetal DiseasesPregnancy ComplicationsFemale Urogenital Diseases and Pregnancy ComplicationsDiseaseGuideline.Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders.FetusEffect of drugs on.FetusDiseases.PregnancyComplications.Diseases.Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders.Fetal Diseases.Pregnancy Complications.Female Urogenital Diseases and Pregnancy Complications.Disease.618.3/268Stratton Kathleen R1797964Howe Cynthia J1085443Battaglia Frederick C.1932-1802847Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Division of Biobehavioral Sciences and Mental Disorders.Committee to Study Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (U.S.)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910970135303321Fetal alcohol syndrome4349146UNINA
