chlorpromazine and Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome

chlorpromazine has been researched along with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome in 13 studies

Chlorpromazine: The prototypical phenothiazine antipsychotic drug. Like the other drugs in this class chlorpromazine's antipsychotic actions are thought to be due to long-term adaptation by the brain to blocking DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. Chlorpromazine has several other actions and therapeutic uses, including as an antiemetic and in the treatment of intractable hiccup.
chlorpromazine : A substituted phenothiazine in which the ring nitrogen at position 10 is attached to C-3 of an N,N-dimethylpropanamine moiety.

Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome: Fetal and neonatal addiction and withdrawal as a result of the mother's dependence on drugs during pregnancy. Withdrawal or abstinence symptoms develop shortly after birth. Symptoms exhibited are loud, high-pitched crying, sweating, yawning and gastrointestinal disturbances.

Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development Third Edition

Scores obtained Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development Third Edition in the developmental domains of motor, cognitive, and language. This tool for measures of motor, cognitive and language development is a series of standardized measurements and for each domain, the standardized scores have a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15. Scores below 1 standard deviation (= or less than 84) is considered below normal. Scores above 1 standard deviation (over 115) represent higher than normal functioning in each domain The score for each domain (motor, cognitive, and language functioning) represents the full-scale score (NCT01734551)
Timeframe: 1 year of life

Finnegan Neonatal Abstinence Scoring System

Mean of total Finnegan Scores obtained every 3 hours on days 2, 7, and 14 following start of treatment; A score is a number representing the total score or sum from 21 items or symptoms or manifestations of opiate withdrawal in newborn infants. The total score ranges from 0 to 43. Reference: 1. Finnegan LP, Connaughton JF, Jr., Kron RE, et al. Neonatal abstinence syndrome: assessment and management. Addict Dis 1975;2(1-2):141-58. Although normal newborn may manifest mild symptoms that will give scores in the range of 0 to 7. A score of 8 consecutively obtained times 3 indicate that infant will benefit from treatment, in this study morphine or clonidine. A decrease in scores especially to less than 8 is suggestive of a good response to treatment. (NCT01734551)
Timeframe: 14 days

Neurobehavioral Performance Summary Scores From the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Network Neurobehavioral Scale (NNNS)

The summary scores from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Network Neurobehavioral Scale (NNNS) give a measure of infant neurobehavior in the following areas (score range): habituation (1-9), regulation (2.20-7.50), attention (1.29 -8.4), Handling (0 - 1), quality of movement (1.20 - 6.20), Non-optimal reflexes (0-12), Asymmetric reflexes (0-7), arousal (2.43 - 6.67), hypertonicity (0- 8), hypotonicity (0 - 5.0), excitability (0-11), lethargy (0 - 11.0). and stress/abstinence (0. - 0.57). A higher score for each item means a higher level of the construct. For example, a higher score for hypertonicity means the infant is more hypertonic and higher score on hypotonicity means the infant is more hypotonic. No cut-off score published for normal or abnormal behavioral performance. Reference: Lester BM et al. Summary Statistics of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Network Neurobehavioral Scale Scores From the Maternal Lifestyle Study: A Quasinormative Sample, in Pediatrics 2004; 113,668. (NCT01734551)

Number of Infants Needing a Dose Increase

"One Finnegan score ≥12, or two consecutive scores ≥8 affirms the requirement for pharmacological treatment or increasing treatment dosage. If the infant continued to have two consecutive Finnegan Scores ≥8 two times consecutively, or one ≥12, the dose was increased to the next level. (Level I: 0.3 mg/kg/day) (Level II: 0.5 mg/kg/day) (Level III: 0.7 mg/kg/day)~A higher Finnegan score indicates greater severity of NAS (min 0, max 50)." (NCT01958476)
Timeframe: Participants were monitored for the duration of their hospitalization, an average of 22 days.

Number of Infants Needing a Second NAS Medication

Number of infants treated with a second medication following protocol, phenobarbital. If the Finnegan Score remained elevated (still scored ≥8 two times consecutively, or still scored once ≥12) despite increasing to a predetermined maximal opioid dose (methadone or morphine), phenobarbital was administered (20-mg/kg loading dose followed by 4-5 mg/kg daily). (NCT01958476)
Timeframe: Participants were monitored for the duration of their hospitalization, an average of 22 days.

Cognitive, Language, and Motor Development From 18 Month Bayley III Neurodevelopmental Assessment

The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (BSID-III) assesses the development of infants and children (1-42 months) through a series of developmental play tasks, identifying children with developmental delay. Raw scores of completed items are summarized within three distinct scale scores (Cognitive Scale, Language Scale, Motor Scale). Scale scores are each converted to composite scores to determine the child's performance compared with scores of age-matched children of typical development (percentile rank). A higher composite score indicates more ideal developmental outcome (range 40-160). At 18 month follow-up visit, participants were assessed using the BSID-III for cognitive, language and motor scale composite score outcomes. (NCT01958476)
Timeframe: Assessment at 18 month follow-up visit
