Filter by:Marijuana and cannabis-containing products are growing in popularity and availability in the United States, and use during pregnancy has increased dramatically. The overarching aim of this proposal is to provide pilot data for a submission which will explore the impact of chronic maternal marijuana use (primary or secondary) on fetal functioning, maternal reflective functioning and infant birth and neurodevelopmental outcomes. Chronically marijuana using pregnant women in treatment at the Center for Addiction and Pregnancy will be enrolled and asked to provide information about participants' marijuana and other licit and illicit substance use and feelings about parenting and participants' infant and undergo fetal monitoring at 36 weeks gestation. The neonates will undergo neurobehavioral examination during the first and fourth weeks of life.
The objective of this study is to assess the changes in symptoms and cognition that occur after a 28-day abstinence period in patients with comorbid Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) and Bipolar (Type I or II) disorder. Stabilized bipolar patients (N=52) with CUD will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) A contingent reinforcement (CR) group (n=26); 2) a non-contingent reinforcement (NCR) group (n=26). The study will include a total of 8 visits to the CAMH Russell site (screening, training, baselines, week 1-4, follow-up). Participants should be between the ages of 18-60, meet criteria for CUD (moderate to severe), meet criteria for Bipolar Disorder, be on a stable dose of mood stabilizing medication(s), and be non-treatment seeking cannabis user. The visits will take up a total of approximately 22.5 hours with compensation for time provided for both groups. These visits will involve multiple clinical, substance use, and cognitive assessments. Abstinence will be maintained by weekly behavioural coaching sessions and contingency reinforcement for the CR group.
