Introductory Paragraph
Early identification of substance use allows for early intervention and treatment which minimizes potential harms to the mother and her pregnancy. [1] Selective screening based on “risk factors” perpetuates stigma and misses most women with problematic use. [2]
This article builds upon information provided in the SAFE Solutions article titled "Expand SBIRT Program." [3]
Key Information
The goals of SBIRT are directly applicable to the use in maternity care and include: [4]
- Educate people about the risks of alcohol and other drugs
- Make people aware of their use and whether it may be creating health risks for them
- Decrease general use so as to reduce the societal risk and burden of the effects of overuse
- Identify individuals who have dependence and provide rapid access to care
Relevant Research
This study showed that real-time ultrasound feedback focused on the potential effects of smoking on the fetus may be an effective treatment adjunct to improve smoking outcomes.[5] This could be adapted and used to treat women with other types of SUDs as well.
Impactful Federal, State, and Local Policies

Available Tools & Resources
- New England’s SBIRT-based Prenatal Screening Outline. This provides recommended tools, how to align them with SBIRT, a process map, examples, billing/coding guides, brief intervention guide, and treatment referral plan. [6]
Promising Practices
- Medical students. A study in an obstetrics and gynecology rotation documented the benefits of placing students in a residential treatment center for pregnant women. The results of their specialized training showed improvements in assessing and educating patients about substance abuse during pregnancy compared to those in a regular rotation. [7]
