Summary
In order to find how many women continue using alcohol during their pregnancies the plan is to anonymously test routine urine samples collected during pregnancies for ethylglucuronide (ETG), a metabolite of ethanol that is detectable in urine up to several days after alcohol consumptions. Altogether 600 samples are taken in the prenatal care units and the prenatal care units dedicated for the alcohol and drug abusing mothers both in the Helsinki and Lahti areas. Test results are used to estimate and compare the prevalence of severe maternal drinking in the different populations.
