Pediatric Substance Exposure is a crucial resource for medical practitioners focusing on the long-term management of children exposed to addictive substances during pregnancy. It provides guidance on supporting families affected by substance abuse, starting with a comprehensive overview of epidemiology and global policy. The book examines various substances and their impact on children, discussing fetal management, infant and child care, and addressing family needs as the child grows. Beyond the basics, the book reviews social aspects, future research, and policy needs. Clinicians and researchers will find it invaluable for evidence-based decision-making and optimal treatment strategies.

Dr Ju Lee Oei is a Senior Neonatologist at the Royal Hospital for Women, Randwick, Conjoint Professor at UNSW Sydney, and Honorary Associate Professor at the NHMRC Clinical Trials Centre, University of Sydney. She is also currently Visiting Professor to the University of Malaya and the North West Children’s Hospital and University of China. Her clinical specialty and research interests are in the care of the high-risk infant, including those requiring admission to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), children of mothers with drug-use disorders, and resuscitation of the extremely preterm infant. Dr Oei has contributed to state and national guidelines for management of neonatal abstinence syndrome as well as guidelines for the American Breast Feeding Medical Association for maternal drug use and has an extensive collaborative network with researchers, clinicians, and policy makers from across the globe.
