Adolescents and Young Adults
Recorded: Thursday, September 29, 2022 - Saturday, October 1, 2022
On-Demand Session
Overview
This 1-hour, on-demand session from the 2022 ASAM State of the Art Course explores distinct topics related to adolescent substance use and addiction, including adolescent e-cigarette addiction and clinically relevant substance-related findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study.
Youth drug abuse is a public health concern, with at least 1-in-8 teenagers abusing an illicit substance in the last year. This 1-hour, on-demand session from the 2022 ASAM State of the Art Course explores distinct topics related to adolescent substance use and addiction, including adolescent e-cigarette addiction and clinically relevant substance-related findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study. Following each presentation, presenters answer audience questions.
This session is comprised of 4 presentations that deep dive into different aspects of the overall topic.
- ABCD Study
This session will review the most recent substance-related findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study. The presenter will give an overview of the landmark study and cover the most current and clinically-relevant ABCD findings, including: (1) the effects of prenatal substance exposure on child development and (2) the consequences of preadolescent alcohol experimentation on health outcomes. Providers will leave with tangible information to share with their patients, and researchers will better understand what data are available for further analysis to inform substance-use clinical practice. - Youth E-cigarette Usage Pandemic: How to manage e-cigarette addiction
This session will provide insight into nicotine addiction, specifically its challenges in cessation that come from resulting neuroanatomical changes. Further, the session will provide insight into how current management of nicotine addiction that result from combustible cigarettes can assist patients struggling with electronic cigarette addiction management, while identifying current gaps that necessitate ongoing research around electronic cigarette addictions. Finally, the session will review real-world clinical cases that highlight a care strategy to assist patients in their electronic cigarette addiction.
These sessions are intended for experienced learners and are taught an intermediate or advanced level. The target audience includes:
- Addiction medicine specialists who are interested in the latest research in the field and its translation to clinical practice
- Physicians and other healthcare professionals who treat patients with addiction and seek an advanced level of knowledge
- Scientists, researchers, public health officials and advocates dedicated to the field of addiction medicine
This conference addresses all 6 ACGME Competencies.
Learning Objectives
At the end of the course, learners should be able to:
- Discuss the important, new, scientific breakthroughs in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of addiction.
- Critically evaluate new science and describe how it changes the current understanding of addiction and co-occurring medical or psychiatric disorders.
- Develop practical applications for integrating new and emerging science into practice.
- Identify gaps in the field of addiction medicine that future research can address.
- Create a network of colleagues and resources to support the learner's practice or form future research collaborations.
