在美国，越来越多的潜在使用者可以获得可卡因。关于这种制剂对胎儿和新生儿可能产生的影响的信息还很缺乏。我们观察了8名婴儿，他们的母亲有可卡因滥用史，其中，尿液可卡因筛查结果呈阳性。我们在这些婴儿身上没有观察到明显的症状或致畸迹象。尽管这是令人鼓舞的，但有必要进行更多的研究，包括布拉塞尔顿评估和对滥用可卡因母亲所生婴儿的长期跟踪。
Cocaine has been increasingly available to a wider population of potential users in the United States. Information concerning possible effects of this agent on the fetus and newborn is lacking. We observed eight infants whose mother's gave a history of cocaine abuse and, in whom, results of a urine screen for cocaine were positive. We observed no evident symptomatology or signs of teratogenicity on these infants. Although this is encouraging, more studies, including Brazelton assessment, and long-term follow-up of infants born to cocaine-abusing mothers is necessary.
