Background
The current opioid crisis is a significant public health issue in the United States, especially amongst women of reproductive age. In the last two decades, the rate of opioid use disorder (OUD) in pregnant women has quadrupled. Women with substance use disorders (SUD) experience more sociodemographic and health disadvantages, pre-existing health conditions, and co-morbid psychiatric diagnoses than their counterparts without SUDs. They are also more likely to experience emergency department visits and hospitalizations during the antenatal period and less likely to utilize prenatal healthcare services.

An undergraduate nursing program in an urban setting developed OUD and NAS education into their curriculum.
Undergraduate nursing students are increasingly encountering patients with opioid use disorder in the clinical setting. Previous research indicates …

Introduction: The relationship between nurses’ decision-making and healthcare outcomes is a high priority in nursing research today. Prior studies and nursing theory have indicated that students and novice nurses rely primarily on formal procedures and concrete evidence to make clinical decisions, but with the passage of time and through meaningful experience, decision-making becomes more intuitive in nature. Increased awareness of the decision-making processes among students and novice nurses is needed to improve health outcomes.
