Purpose: To examine the longitudinal effects of a history of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) on language development over the first 10 years of life.
Design And Methods: This study used a retrospective, longitudinal design. The data were analyzed using generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) to examine the effects of NAS on language delay over time while controlling for demographic, prenatal, and household factors.
Results: There was a significant difference in the pattern of language delays over time between the NAS and non-NAS groups. At the age of 5 (est: -1.788, p < .001), children with a history of NAS had a decreased log odds of developing language delays than those without NAS. Conversely, compared with age 1, at the age of 10 (est: 1.098 p < .001), children with a history of NAS had an increased log odds of developing language delays than those without NAS.
Conclusions: Children with a history of NAS had significantly different rates of language delays over time. Children with a history of NAS had significantly higher rates of language delays at 10 years than children without NAS.
Practice Implications: There is a need to increase developmental surveillance, along with referrals for specialized services, for children with a history of NAS through middle childhood.

Increased incidence of Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome has prompted innovation in assessment and management approaches. The Finnegan Approach and the Eat, Sleep, Console are the two most commonly described approaches, though they differ substantially. The goals of this review article are to describe and compare these approaches and published outcomes, including areas of uncertainty that may inform future directions.

Introduction: There is a paucity of literature on pre-adolescent paradoxical vocal fold motion (PVFM), PVFM is a sub-type of inducible laryngeal obstruction. Studies typically focus on older patients, however the discovery of this entity in pre-adolescent pediatric patients has led to more questions about how this entity manifests differently and is treated differently in younger populations. Initially considered psychosomatic and commonly mistaken for asthma, PVFM etiology is now thought to be associated underlying neurologic conditions and may have irritant triggers with proposed mechanisms related to laryngeal hypersensitivity.

Introduction: Up to 30% of newborns with in-utero selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) exposure experience withdrawal symptoms. The impact of newborn feeding method on alleviating withdrawal has not been investigated. We examined the effect of newborn feeding method (breastfeeding versus formula) among a cohort of nates ith n-utero SRI xposure (NeoWISE).
