1 FETAL ALCOHOL SPECTRUM DISORDERS Christi Masters, M.S., CCC-SLP Clinical Assistant Professor Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences DISCLOSURE STATEMENT The presenter has no relevant financial or nonfinancial relationships to disclose. ASHA Convention, Chicago, IL, November 14, 2013 LEARNING OBJECTIVES Describe the biomedical foundations of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs) Explain the clinical implications relevant to alcohol consumption and pregnancy Describe treatment strategies that are most effective for children with FASDs Discuss methods of prevention to be utilized in clinical and community settings WHY IMPORTANT? Birth defect that is completely preventable! Diagnosis before age 6 leads to better outcomes. (Streissguth et al., 2004) No known amount of alcohol is safe during pregnancy. (Goodlett & West, 1992) Unless otherwise noted, content information contained in this PowerPoint presentation is referenced in the Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Competency-Based Curriculum Development Guide for Medical and Allied Health Education and Practice, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2009 available at IMPACT ON BRAIN GROWTH FETAL ALCOHOL SPECTRUM DISORDERS (FASD) Range of effects FASD: an umbrella term- but not a diagnostic term Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) Partial Fetal Alcohol Syndrome(pFAS) Alcohol Related Birth Defects (ARBD) Alcohol-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder (ARND) Photo courtesy of Sterling Clarren, MD Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 1
2 COSTS Cost estimates only available for FAS to date Estimated lifetime cost for one individual living with FAS in 2002 was $2 million Total annual costs associated with FAS in the United States are estimated at $4 billion PREVALENCE Prevalence of FAS (based on CDC reports on estimates from ):.2 in 1,000 to 1.5 in 1,000 live births Comparable or greater than Down syndrome and spina bifida combined Lupton, C., Burd, L., & Harwood, R. (2004). Cost of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C (Seminars in Medical Genetics), 127C, WOMEN AND ALCOHOL STANDARD DRINK Binge drinking for women: more than 3 drinks in about a two hour period (according to National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism) 7.6% of pregnant women aged years in the US report alcohol use* 1.4% of pregnant women ages years in the US report frequent or binge drinking* *CDC analyzed Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data.

POTENTIAL EFFECTS Premature birth Pre- and postnatal growth retardation Physical malformations Microcephaly Cognitive and behavioral problems IMPACT ON THE DEVELOPING EMBRYO/FETUS Mechanisms of action not fully understood Alcohol crosses placenta Timing, dose, and other fetal/maternal factors (threshold effect and doseresponse rate) Some catch-up in fetal growth and development may be possible Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 2
3 OTHER FACTORS Maternal Age Gravidity Stress IMPACT ON THE DEVELOPING EMBRYO/FETUS The Central Nervous System (CNS) is the organ system primarily susceptible to damage The corpus callosum, cerebellum, and basal ganglia are particularly susceptible to prenatal alcohol exposure TIMING OF EXPOSURE 1 st Trimester Drinking: morphological abnormalities, characteristic facial features, growth retardation, neurologic effects 2 nd Trimester Drinking: spontaneous abortion, growth retardation, neurologic effects 3 rd Trimester Drinking: growth retardation and neurologic effects FAS DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA With or without confirmed prenatal alcohol exposure Pre- and/or postnatal growth retardation Specific Facial Anomalies Small palpebral fissures, smooth philtrum, thin upper lip Central Nervous System Impairments PARTIAL FAS With or without confirmed prenatal exposure Two or more facial features One or more of the following: Pre and/or postnatal growth retardation Evidence of deficient brain growth or structural abnormalities Evidence of cognitive/behavioral issues, inconsistent with developmental level that can t be explained by genetics/family/environment alone Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 3
4 ALCOHOL RELATED BIRTH DEFECTS Confirmed prenatal alcohol exposure Two or more facial features At least one associated congenital structural deficit ALCOHOL RELATED NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDER Confirmed prenatal alcohol exposure At least one of the following Evidence of deficient brain growth or structural abnormalities Evidence of cognitive/behavioral issues, inconsistent with developmental level that can t be explained by genetics/family/environment alone DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS No feature completely unique Environmental factors Other syndromes PROTECTIVE FACTORS Early diagnosis Involvement in special education and social services Loving, nurturing, and stable home environment Absence of violence EARLY FACIAL CHARACTERISTICS (THREE MONTHS) Family Empowerment Network UW School of Medicine and Public Health Photo courtesy of Teresa Kellerman, Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 4
5 CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM IMPACT ON EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING CNS impairments can cause poor fine and gross motor coordination and overall developmental delays Potential range of cognitive disabilities Poor organization and planning skills Concrete thinking Lack of inhibition Poor judgment IMPACT ON SOCIAL SKILLS Lack of stranger fear Vulnerability to being taken advantage of Immaturity Superficial interactions Inappropriate choice of friends Poor social cognition TEAM APPROACH Diagnostic services are part of continuum of needed services: Medical Mental Health Case Management Education/Special Education SLP, OT, PT Family Support and respite Photo: Adult with FAS (used with permission of Teresa Kellerman/ EARLY INTERVENTION Early Intervention can improve the child s development Range of issues seen in infants with signs of FASD Sensory/regulatory problems, irritability, poor sleep/wake cycle, failure to thrive, nursing/ feeding issues, poor immune function TODDLERS/PRESCHOOLERS Primary Disabilities Include: Continuation or increase in delays seen as an infant Fidgety/distractible Fine and gross motor delays Loss of previously learned material Failure to comply Might be short for their age Might be prone to infections and colds Concerns may lead to suggestions: Attention Deficit Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Reactive Attachment Disorder Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 5
6 SCHOOL AGE Continued delays in physical and cognitive development: Hyperactivity Attention problems Weaknesses in the following areas: Visual/Spatial abilities Math Performance IQ (vs. Verbal IQ) Social skills FASD OR ADHD? The attention problems of children with FAS differ from the classic pattern of ADHD. Children with ADHD of any etiology display problems with focus and attention, those with FASD tend to have additional difficulty with encoding information and shifting attention or "flexibility". Research participants with FAS performed worse on measures of visual attention than measures of auditory attention. FASD OR ADHD? Individuals with an FASD also can appear hyperactive because their impulsivity might manifest as increased activity levels. Data indicate that children with FASDs who have attention problems may not respond to stimulant medications, which often serves as an initial clue that an FASD should be considered. - See more at: Questions.aspx#sthash.zUvE8Qnv.dpuf STRATEGIES Environment: Organized and safe Well defined areas Small number of people Not too much stimulation (avoid clutter) Predictability: Schedule (therapy- keep the same!) Consistent routine Visual schedules (pictures) Transition (verbal, tactile, visual, concrete) Be consistent with everything (discipline, school, behaviors) STRATEGIES Concentrate on the child's strengths and talents Consider developmental age rather than chronological age Keep it simple (1 step directions, teach 1 concept at a time) Use visual aides, music, melodic intonation, phonemic cues, and hands-on activities Use positive reinforcement often (praise, incentives) Supervise: friends, visits, routines Repeat, repeat, repeat STRATEGIES Provide choice of two things (e.g., Do you want to read the book at the table or on the floor? ) Utilize your team members (e.g., Occupational Therapists and possible sensory diets - bumpy seats, yogarilla, obstacle courses to start session) Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 6
7 STRATEGIES LANGUAGE Pause- give them increased time to process and respond Use concrete language instead of abstract concepts Abstract examples: why, wait, later, ask for help, watch Concrete examples: show me, tell me, let s start here (demonstrate), go to Limit use of Good job - be specific with encouragement! FEELINGS RESEARCH BASED THERAPY Friendship training (Project Bruin Buddies) Specialized math tutoring (Georgia Math Interactive Learning Experience) Executive function training (adapted from ALERT program focusing on self-regulation)- Children s Research Triangle Parent-child interaction training Parenting and behavior management training Bertrand, J. (2009). Interventions for children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs): Overview of findings for five innovative research projects. Research in Developmental Disabilities, 30, CLINICAL RECOMMENDATIONS PREVENTION Educate women of childbearing age about FASDs Refer clients/parents as needed for treatments Identify individuals with possible FASDs ( NOFAS) Chris+ Masters, M.S., CCC- SLP 7
8 REALITIES At this time they only teach women who admit to drinking, with their reasoning being they want to provide "individualized care" and feel it unnecessary to teach about the dangers if the woman denies drinking. This makes no sense to me, but when I tried to reason and explain why all pregnant women should be made aware I felt like I was talking to a brick wall. Given your expertise, I'm hopeful that they will listen to what you say and change their current practice at the clinic. PUBLIC HEALTH MESSAGE No amount of alcohol consumption can be considered safe during pregnancy! THERE S AN APP FOR THAT!
