CHAPTER 11 Drug Withdrawal in the Neonate

hypertonia, may continue, and the mother may interpret this as a sign of rejection. Clinician support (doctors, nurses, and all in contact with the family), including a thorough description of potential symp­toms and their management and the fact that they are time-limited, is vital if maternal-infant attachment is to occur and potential neglect and abuse are to be avoided. Studies continue to demonstrate that
drug-dependent mothers and their newborns demonstrated poor performance on a measure of social engagement. The drug-dependent mothers
demonstrated significantly less positive affect and greater detachment, and the drug-exposed infants presented fewer behaviors promoting social involve­ment. Drug-exposed infants and their mothers expe­rience a difficult early period during which both are less available, less likely to initiate, and less responsive to social involvement.
61
Therefore, parents of the drug-exposed infant may need assistance in recognizing important symptoms that signal problems and cues neces­sary for caregiving. A frank discussion must be had regarding the infant’s exposure to secondary crack smoke, crystal methamphetamine smoke, marijuana smoke, and tobacco smoke. These can be detrimental to the health of the newborn; there­fore, parents should be warned of the consequences of using these substances around their infant.
Parents also need to be educated about sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and complications from any perinatal infections. The complexity and challenging nature of the home atmosphere should never be underestimated in these situations. The importance of an optimal home environment for the global development of these children should be emphasized to all parents.
61
Although much has been learned over the past several decades from research in the field of peri­natal substance exposure and abuse, there remains a need for continued evidence-based studies to better determine the intricacies of NAS, effective treat­ment, and overall immediate and long-term effects.

ways are myelinated in the fetus during the second and third trimesters and are com­pletely myelinated by 30 to 37 weeks of ges­tation. Even thinly myelinated or nonmyelinated
fibers carry pain stimuli. Incomplete myelination implies only a slower transmission, which is off­set in the neonate by the shorter distance the impulse must travel.
Even though pain is not expressed verbally in semiconscious patients, nonverbal adults (e.g., intu­bated, mute), or infants, this does not negate their experience of pain. In response to the question of whether the neonate’s responses are reflexive or express a perception of pain, research has focused on measuring the infant’s pain experience. The
infant’s capacity for memory is far greater than was previously thought, chologic complex of altered pain threshold and pain-related behavior has been identified.*
Concern has been expressed that giving potent medications to an already critically ill infant might be dangerous. Local and systemic drugs that are now available, as well as new techniques and devices for monitoring, enable all neonates to be safely anesthe­tized and provide safe and effective analgesia while maintaining a stable condition.

Pain relief benefits the neonate by
decreasing physiologic instability, hormonal and metabolic stress, and the behavioral reactions accompanying painful procedures.*
The Committee on Fetus and Newborn of
the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)
has recommended the administration of local or systemic drugs for anesthesia or analgesia to neonates undergoing surgical procedures.12
The committee further states that any decision to withhold these drugs should not be based solely on the infant’s age or perceived degree of cortical maturity but should be based on the same criteria used in older patients.
12,22
The lat-
est version of the AAP guidelines cites that pro-
longed exposure to untreated pain increases morbidity and alters subsequent behavioral and physiologic responses to pain.13 National and international associations have promul­gated standard-of-care guidelines or position statements about neonatal pain management.† The focus of these documents is on the pro­active assessment and management of pain in the neonate. The National Association of
Neonatal Nurses (NANN) guidelines outline the following recommendations.
412
• Parents must be informed of pain relief as an
important part of the neonate’s health care plan, must be educated by staff about nonpharmaco­logic measures they can use,
243,323
and should be encouraged to actively participate in their neonate’s assessment and management of pain.
40
• Every institution must mandate clinical practice guidelines that ensure access and safe administra­tion of pain control to the neonate. Institutions also should develop guidelines for assessing and mon­itoring pain management practices that include parental input40 with the goal of measuring the adequacy of pain relief and control in the neonate.
• Institutions must support interdisciplinary research and ongoing education that includes a description of neonatal pain, accurate pain

A national study of experienced, highly educated neonatal nurses who were members of NANN was recently published.96 Only 50% of the surveyed
nurses felt knowledgeable about pain; some disagreed about the neonate’s capacity to feel pain or that there were long-term consequences of unrelieved pain. Other findings of the survey
include the following: (1) 81% used a pain assess­ment tool; only 65% thought the tool was appropri­ate for neonates, and 60% thought it was an accurate measure; (2) 83% felt confident in the use of phar­macologic interventions; and (3) 79% felt confident in the use of nonpharmacologic interventions.96 Only 44% of the respondents reported that neonatal pain was well managed, and only 43% thought that their pain protocols were evidence-based. Barriers to relief of neonatal pain were identified as (1) professional (both nurses and doctors) resistance to change (44%); (2) lack of knowledge (23%); (3) fear of side effects of pain medications and incorrect evaluation of pain symptoms (15%); (4) time delay from pain assessment to receipt of medications (13%); and (5) lack of trust in the assessment tool (13%).96 In this study, 147 of the total 237 respon­dents identified the following strategies to improve pain management: (1) education about pain (45%), (2) reading and using research (15%), and (3) more interdisciplinary communication.

All neonatal health care providers have an eth-
ical and legal obligation to practice the standard of care in assessing and intervening to relieve the neonate’s pain, and to re-evaluate the safety and efficacy of the pharmacologic and comfort inter­ventions used to treat pain.*
PHYSIOLOGY AND PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
“Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage.”

does not fit the self-report aspect of this definition, which often results in the health care provider’s failure to recognize and treat pain. Self-report is absent in the preverbal neonate, therefore, non­verbal behavioral information needs to be assessed and used to determine the treatment options for neonates. The definition of pain has been
amended. “The inability to communicate in no way negates the possibility that an individual is experiencing pain, and is in need of appropriate pain-relieving treatment.”
210
Although we can­not assess the emotional experience associated with pain in these babies, the necessary sensory path­ways are now better understood. Neonates have
a developing, incompletely myelinated nervous system at birth; however, all the components of the nociceptive (pain) pathways are present.

As background for an understanding of neonatal responses and their differences from adult responses, the basic mechanisms of adult pain transmission are presented in Fig. 12.1.

NEUROANATOMY
Peripheral Nervous System
Peripheral nerves can be classified into three broad categories based on fiber diameter and velocity (Table 12.2). Pain receptors (nociceptors) are the A-delta fibers (A-δ) and C fibers that are widely spread in the superficial layers of the skin, peri­osteum, fascia, peritoneum, joints, muscle, pleura, dura, and tooth pulp. Most visceral tissues have fewer nociceptors, and these transmit to the spinal cord through the sympathetic, parasympathetic, and splanchnic nerves. Tissue damage and inflamma-
tion cause the release of arachidonic acid and

Some infants with increased sensitivity to pain may have a slower decay of the acute pain following an invasive procedure, thus justifying some overlap in the duration of acute episodic
pain and prolonged pain.

other chemicals that can sensitize nerve endings and cause vasodilation and plasma extravasation. This causes pain, swelling, and hyperalgesia.
Aδ fibers are myelinated and therefore capable of
fast impulse conduction. These nerves are responsi­ble for “fast” or “first” pain. They are also known as high-threshold mechanoreceptors (HTMs) because they respond to strong pressure or tissue injury. The C fibers (polymodal nociceptors) are unmyelinated, conduct impulses more slowly, and are the main nociceptors for transmitting chemical, thermal, and mechanical noxious stimuli to the spinal cord. The Aδ fibers develop ahead of the C fibers in the skin and the spinal cord. Aδ fibers are involved in the cutaneous flexion reflex. This reflex is exaggerated in the preterm infant. Thresholds to mechanical skin stimulation (which may or may not be perceived
121
as pain in a newborn) are lower, and responses last longer. Complete myelination occurs during the
second and third trimesters. Lack of myelination had been thought to indicate the inability of a neonate to perceive pain; however, incomplete myelination leads only to slower conduction, which is offset by the shorter distances traversed in the infant.

Reflex responses to somatic stimuli begin at 7.5 weeks postconceptual age (PCA) in the perioral skin and continue to develop in the palms of the

place throughout the body by 20 weeks of ges-

and Aδ fibers (pinching) transmit painful stimuli in the human fetus. In rat pups, the C fibers reach the

spinal cord but do not start to stimulate dorsal horn cells until the end of the first postnatal week. They subsequently continue to mature for several weeks. This slow maturation in rats may be caused by low levels of neuropeptides such as substance P (SP), neurotransmitters, or immature receptor sites. These changes in rat pups appear to correlate with the third trimester and the early neonatal period in humans.
137
Spinal Cord
The pain transmission system begins with the peripheral pain receptors (nociceptors). Once a noxious stimulus is detected by the nocicep­tors, the signal is transmitted via the primary afferents to the dorsal root ganglia and from there to the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Neurotransmitters and their receptors amplify or attenuate the signal in the dorsal horn before sending the signal to the brain.
44,80
Excitatory neurotransmitters such as SP and other neurokinins are increased after acute inflam­mation and may be necessary for the transmission of painful stimuli to the brain.
215
Glutamate and aspartate are amino acids that appear to be involved in central hypersensitivity and wind-up.28 Wind-up
is a phenomenon in which repetition of the same noxious stimulus leads to an exaggerated response. This response continues even after the noxious stimulus ceases. Wind-up also may be
responsible for converting a low-level, pain-related activity to a high-level, pain-related activity.
The preterm infant experiences increased stress and activity in the nociceptive pathways after prolonged periods of exposure to painful stim­uli. A recent study showed that neonates with high
levels of physiologic stress have larger amplitude of cortical nociceptive responses not reflected in their behavior.
222
During a heel lance, brain activity in infants with underlying stress is enhanced but not reflected in their behavioral response to the noxious stimuli. After prolonged exposure, the
preterm infant exhibits similar pain responses when exposed to other caregiving activities
(e.g., handling, suctioning the endotracheal tube, positioning).
132
An additional factor in the development of
hypersensitivity (e.g., decreased pain thresh­old) and hyperalgesia is the presence of nocicep-
tive-specific receptors,
182
which respond only to pain. In the presence of peripheral inflammation, the threshold of these receptors is decreased so that they are capable of responding to other nonnoxious
121
stimuli.
For example, an infant whose heel has
been repeatedly stuck for blood samples may demonstrate pain behavior, even when the heel is merely touched. Many of these responses can be blocked by low doses of opioids. However, once these responses are established, a 10-fold increased dose of opioids may be necessary to reverse them.
138,418
The spinal cord also contains inhibitory neu-
rotransmitters (γ-aminobutyric acid [GABA], gly­cine), which are activated by descending neural pathways (from the brain to the spinal cord) and decrease the intensity of pain transmission. This results in modulation of pain transmission from the spinal cord to the cortex. Descending inhibition is necessary to modulate the pain response and yet allow for specific pain responses (e.g., withdrawal from a needle stick). Delayed maturation of the
44,121,392
UNIT TWO Support of the Neonate278
https://t.me/medicina_free
descending inhibitory fibers results in a higher pain threshold in the upper extremities and
a lower threshold in the lower extremities, resulting in more pain sensitivity in the lower extremities.23 Lack of inhibition produces exagger-
ated, generalized, but definite responses to pain such as body wriggling, facial grimacing, and excessive crying. These pathways, in contrast with the excit­atory ones, are not fully developed at birth in “rat pups and probably in preterm infants” the neonatal spinal cord is more excitable.

infants.
Neurotransmitters in the developing nervous system may be expressed early but are not necessar­ily located in areas normally found in an adult. This is particularly true of SP and glutamate, which may contribute to the unorganized responses noted with pain stimuli in the newborn (e.g., the whole body moves when an intravenous [IV] line is started).

continues for many years after birth. Contrary to
previous beliefs that newborns do not feel pain, it appears that, in fact, cutaneous responses are exaggerated and occur at much lower thresh­olds, and reflex muscle contractions last longer in newborns than in mature individuals. Using
real-time near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in 18 preterm infants (25 to 45 weeks’ postmenstrual age [PMA]), an increase in cerebral oxygenation over the contralateral somatosensory cortex was mea­sured in response to heel stick blood draws response to venipuncture in another study.45 From these findings, researchers concluded that pain is
transmitted to the cerebral cortex of preterm infants from 25 weeks’ PMA.
research has found that low biobehavioral respon­siveness to pain at 32 weeks’ PCA is associated with poorer quality of motor function at 8 months’ PCA; therefore pain reactivity in the NICU may

In summary, the newborn’s nervous
system, although still developing, is fully capa­ble of transmitting, perceiving, responding to, and probably remembering noxious stimuli.
PHYSIOLOGIC RESPONSES
Acute pain in adults is associated with increased
sympathetic stimulation, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, cardiac output, myocardial oxy­gen consumption, peripheral resistance, anxiety, emotional distress, and hormonal imbalance, and greater morbidity and mortality. Numerous studies
have shown that both premature and full-term infants express the same physiologic responses to pain and noxious stimuli (e.g., intubation) as adults do (Box 12.1).
infants’ pain response to circumcision and recom­mendations to use anesthetics or analgesics during circumcision, a survey in a large academic medical center showed that only 30% of infants being cir­cumcised by obstetricians received any pain relief, and there was no documentation of discussion with parents about pain management.

very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants at 32 weeks’ PCA found that younger gestational ages (GAs)
and increased number of invasive procedures at birth resulted in a “dampening” of normal pain reactions (e.g., delayed or fewer facial changes; lower
pain scale scores) infants had higher baseline heart rates, which may have indicated that they were in a perpetual state of stress or pain. Previous exposure to morphine was associated with a “normalization” of responses to painful stimuli.
