\u00a0As a tool for surveillance of opioid, benzodiazepine, and barbiturate exposures, NAS data comes from a variety of sources. Each source provides specific data elements that collectively offer a multi-dimensional view of the burden of NAS and can provide stakeholders with an ongoing understanding of the scope and burden of this condition.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Reporting from patient records has the most comprehensive information, including demographic information, clinical
impression, physician or triage notes, laboratory test results, medical treatments and procedures, medical history, and
comorbidity. Ideally, both birthing parent and newborn medical records would be used to gather information for case
classification. When compared with utilizing discharge data sets that require analysis and cleaning, clinician reporting can
provide a timelier representation of NAS.<\/p>\n

Birthing parent and infant visit records may not be equally accessible, and identification of birthing parent\/infant pairs may
be difficult and could result in duplicate cases. Outpatient records will normally only be inclusive of birthing parent data.
Clinical reporting directly to public health authorities can be burdensome in both reporting and abstraction and may lead to
under-ascertainment.<\/p>\n

Laboratory data are useful for Tier 1 case classification as described in Appendix 3 of 23-MCH-01<\/a>. Required clinical laboratory reporting is mandated by states for selected reportable conditions. Data elements include laboratory test results (and the lab reference range), the patient contact information, and the health care provider who ordered the lab test. There is variability in reporting of personal identifiers. These reports are used to determine morbidity, exposure and take public health actions.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Birthing parent and neonate clinical specimen testing may be performed at hospitals, commercial, state and federal labs.
Provides valuable information on in utero exposures when sensitive and specific tests are conducted close to the time of
delivery. Some information is provided to national databases through the Electronic Laboratory Reporting System (ELR).<\/p>\n

Laboratory testing of both pregnant women and neonates can be highly variable in who receives testing and what substances
are tested for, especially when testing may result in punitive action. Relying solely on laboratory testing for case
ascertainment can lead to underreporting. Patient identifiers are not standardized to align with identifiers within medical
records. Diverse systems of data aggregation.<\/p>\n

Most states have access to their hospitals\u2019 inpatient discharge data, which contain case-specific discharge data including utilization data, clinical data, and demographic data for patients admitted to acute care hospitals. Some states obtain patient identifiers and others do not. These databases also contain utilization, revenue, expense, and payer data. Hospital discharge data may be used for Tier 2 ascertainment and classification of cases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Electronic medical records (EMRs) are digital versions of the paper charts in clinician offices, clinics, and hospitals. EMRs contain notes and information collected by and for the clinicians in that office, clinic, or hospital and are mostly used by providers for diagnosis and treatment. Data may include diagnoses, medications, immunizations, family medical histories, and diagnostic screening results. Some jurisdictions receive reports generated by a facility\u2019s electronic health record (EHR) system based on ICD10CM or SNOMED diagnosis codes for Tier 1 case ascertainment to identify neonates diagnosed with NAS (e.g. P96.1) or exposed in utero to opiates, benzodiazepines, or barbiturates(e.g. P04.14). Further review of EMRs can be used for case classification.<\/span><\/p>\n

Records are inclusive of a broader view of a patient\u2019s care including specialists and laboratory specimens. Visits from
providers over time may be included including preventive treatments and tests, screenings, patient monitoring and other
data not normally collected in administrative datasets. Depending on the amount of the EMR available, this data source
may be the most helpful in differentiating implicated drugs related to the exposure.<\/p>\n

visit, source of payment, diagnosis and procedure codes (ICD-10-CM), reason for visit, mode of transport, medical record <\/span>number.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Hospitals are required to report certain data for each outpatient ED visit, by law or regulation, in selected states. The purposes <\/span>of the data are to accurately quantify and track the number and type of ED visits and to provide case-mix information to<\/span>
hospitals and communities. ED databases available through the<\/span> Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP)<\/a><\/span> are limited to <\/span>only patients seen in the ED who are not subsequently admitted as an inpatient as a part of the encounter.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
