Alcohol Related Birth Injury (FAS/FAE) Resource Site We offer information about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Alcohol Related Birth Injury in a format designed for quick access to information you require and quick access to links of many related sites. This site will also provide comprehensive information on the Local Resource Network available in Lethbridge and Southwestern Alberta for children and families affected by Alcohol Related Birth Injuries. New listings will be added regularly so visit often! It takes a community to support a woman in her efforts not to drink and it takes a community to support children affected by alcohol before birth. These children suffer growth problems, intellectual impairment and behavioral problems. Many are unable to remain with their parents. They can be found with extended family, in foster care, placed for adoption and, in time if left to flounder, in courtrooms or in jails or on the streets alone and in danger. Each move in an affected child's life will mean new schools, new family and new communities and may herald untold stress for all. Moves are often sudden and unplanned. This could be called "THE PARACHUTE PHENOMENON": a child with many special needs appearing as if out of nowhere. Many children have yet to be diagnosed. When the child arrives or the diagnosis is suspected, families and service providers need to learn quickly where and how to obtain support. We hope this site will provide you with direction for obtaining the resources you require.

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome At A Glance What is fetal alcohol syndrome? Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) is the sum total of the damage done to the child before birth as a result of the mother drinking alcohol during pregnancy. Although the dangers of alcohol during pregnancy had long been suspected, FAS was formally discovered in 1968 by P. Lemoine and colleagues from Nantes (France) in 127 children of alcoholic parents. Their report in a French pediatric journal drew little attention. Focus on FAS only came after it was independently rediscovered in 1973 by K.L. Jones and colleagues from Seattle (USA) in 8 children of mothers with chronic alcoholism. Their report in the British medical journal, The Lancet , triggered an avalanche of reports of FAS.

FAS and FAE Issues in Russia Main Adoption Page Favorite Russian Adoption Sites Russian Adoption Agency List Russian medical reports FAQ ... Feedback Alcohol Related Birth Defects and International Adoption Dr. Jane Aronson Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) and Fetal Alcohol Effect (FAE) are concerns for parents who are adopting from the former Soviet Union because there are no public health programs to educate women about the deleterious effects of drinking during pregnancy. It should be understood that any child adopted from any part of the world can be potentially exposed to alcohol pre-natally. Children adopted from the U.S. are at risk as well as children adopted from eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. I will use the terms FAS and FAE since these terms are so popular, but I would like to encourage the use of the descriptive phrases "alcohol related birth defects or alcohol related neurodevelopmental effects" which are also commonly used. I will also use "Russia" instead of the "former Soviet Union" for simplicity and brevity. This chapter will briefly give an historical perspective of FAS, define FAS and FAE and discuss their medical and psychological manifestations. The epidemiology of alcohol associated birth defects in Russia will be defined. The chapter will touch on the daily practice of diagnosis of FAS and FAE in children adopted from abroad with a short discussion of the current research. There will also be a short discussion of the medical evaluation of children diagnosed with FAS.

APPENDIX A EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Damage resulting from alcohol to the fetus has been observed since biblical times, yet not until 1973 was it formally recognized as Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). Diagnosis of FAS requires a positive history of maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy, as well as three criteria including prenatal and/or postnatal growth delay, characteristic cranio-facial anomalies, and central nervous system impairments. An accumulation of research has also indicated more subtle forms of FAS which have been termed Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) and which often have two but not three of the formal features of FAS. In both FAS and FAE the damage is permanent.

email Arium Fetal Alcohol Syndrome - FAS and Fetal Alcohol Effects - FAE are caused by the expectant mother consuming alcohol during the term of her pregnancy. The child is permanently afflicted with a diminished ability to function mentally, physically, emotionally and socially. This impairment of the child's and future adult's abilities for reasoning and self control result in problems at school, antisocial and delinquent activities, increases in drug abuse and rates of crime. We all pay a significant price, both economically and in terms of a loss of quality of life in our communities, as a result of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome - FAS and Fetal Alcohol Effects - FAE. The occurrence of FAS / FAE is very high. It happens at all socioeconomic levels of our society and is not bounded by any particular cultural group. The problems associated with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome - FAS and Fetal Alcohol Effects - FAE have been magnified by the significant absence of attention to this important social issue both by governments and society.
