What this research studies
This research focuses on addressing the challenges faced by mothers with opioid use disorder (OUD) and their children by improving access to comprehensive healthcare services. It aims to consolidate various streams of public health and clinical data to identify and analyze the needs of mother-infant pairs affected by OUD. By leveraging this data, the project seeks to create an integrated care model that enhances prenatal, postpartum, and pediatric care, ultimately leading to better health outcomes for families. The approach emphasizes continuous and data-driven care to ensure that healthcare services are effectively coordinated and accessible.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research include mothers with opioid use disorder and their children, particularly those in Florida who are seeking or receiving care.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have opioid use disorder or are outside the age range of 0-11 years may not receive benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could significantly improve health outcomes for mothers and their children affected by opioid use disorder.
How similar studies have performed: Previous single-site studies integrating substance use disorder programs during pregnancy have shown success in improving maternal and neonatal outcomes.
