Adolescent Substance Use

Format: Module
Brain development during adolescence makes youth particularly vulnerable to both initiating substance use and developing substance use disorders (SUD). Alcohol and cannabis use are both common and the impacts of these substances on the developing brain leads to a predictable set of consequences. Primary and secondary prevention and treatment can all improve outcomes. This module discusses Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) to identify and address substance use, and the medical management of SUD treatment in primary care.

Treating Pregnant People for Opioid Use Disorder: Clinical Challenges

Format: Module
Opioid use disorder (OUD) among women and people who become pregnant is increasing in prevalence in clinical settings. The standard of care is to provide buprenorphine or methadone as a part of a complete treatment approach during pregnancy and beyond the postpartum period. This module reviews the historical and current context of opioid use among women and birthing people during pregnancy. It compares pharmacological treatment options for women and people who become pregnant with an OUD and also discusses the issues with detoxification or medically assisted withdrawal from opioids during pregnancy. Issues related to the treatment of OUD during pregnancy and in the postpartum period for the birthing person, fetus and child will also be discussed (e.g., induction, dosing, pain management, neonatal withdrawal and how to reduce its severity).

Tech Talks: Technological Addiction

Format: Podcast
The use of technology is prevalent in almost every aspect of our life in America. Many depend on technology to work and connect. It is only fitting for clinicians working in the field of addiction to wonder about the long-term consequence of repeated prolonged exposure to technologies and social media that are perfectly tailored to keep us engaged at all times. In this episode, Dr. Petros Levounis, professor and chair of the Department of Psychiatry and associate dean for professional development at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, and current APA president-elect will discuss technological addiction and provide his approach to diagnosis and management, as well as advice for trainees and early-career psychiatrists.
