Infant autonomic functioning and neonatal abstinence syndrome
LM Jansson, JA DiPietro, A Elko, M Velez - Drug and alcohol dependence, 2010 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) expression is widely variable among
affected infants and the reasons for this variability are largely unknown; mechanisms that
predispose infants to NAS expression are not understood. It has been postulated that the
regulatory problems of prenatally drug exposed infants are manifested in dysfunctional
vagal regulation of autonomic processes. The current study examines whether cardiac vagal
tone, an indicator of parasympathetic neuroregulation, provides a marker for autonomic …
