EXAMPLE

in the article, Perinatal Substance Exposure and Long-Term Outcomes in Children: A Literature Review, the authors discuss substance abuse in pregnancy and the long-term effects it has on the babies who are exposed. The article goes on to define Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) as a “[..]group of symptoms manifested at birth by infants upon discontinuation of the drug to which they were exposed in utero” (Joseph, Brady, Hudson, & Moran, 2020, P.164). The article explains the different symptoms and how the treatment is based on a scoring system. The authors go into great detail over how drug abuse during pregnancy can cause a delay in the child’s language, sensory, motor, and cognitive development. Children exposed to substances in utero showed to have a slower anthropometric growth pattern and were at a higher risk for engaging in risky behaviors, such as drug abuse themselves (Joseph, Brady, Hudson, & Moran, 2020). The article provides many references, facts, and statistics supporting these claims. The article concludes with a discussion on the importance of giving effective interprofessional education to these at risks patients to prevent negative outcomes from occurring. I chose this article because I currently work in OB and see many pregnant patients come in with substance-abuse problems. I have worked with many newborns who have NAS and have had to treat them with morphine due to the severe side effects of withdrawal. I have witnessed newborns withdrawing from multiple substances at a time, and have used the scoring system mentioned in the article. It is a very sad situation and I have always been curious as to how these newborns do as they grow. Reference: Joseph, R., Brady, E., Hudson, M. E., & Moran, M. M. (2020).

Criteria for Format and Special Instructions

1. Instructor reserves the right to submit any threaded discussion posting to TurnItIn in order to verify the originality.
2. When journals are used as the outside source of information, it is preferred that the journal be peer reviewed. The Chamberlain online librarian is very helpful in assisting you to find an article related to your topic. If you have questions concerning scholarly sources, please refer to the handout entitled “What is a scholarly source” located under “Course Resources” tab.
3. Web sites vary in quality and scholarship. It is the responsibility of the student to determine the scholarly nature of the web site. If the instructor determines that the site failed to demonstrate scholarship, points maybe deducted. Students are cautioned to use care regarding .com sites. Some .com sites are excellent such as American Heart Association, but others are built by individuals and scholarliness is lacking. It is recommended that you check with your instructor before using a .com website as a reference.
4. Only one small quote (15 words or less) within the entire initial posting is acceptable. It is expected that the student will paraphrase the information when presenting information from a scholarly source. The scholarly source(s) for the paraphrased information must be cited using APA format. Do not include a number of small quotes even if they are just a few words as your instructor considers a quote to be a quote no matter its limited size.
