Management of pregnant people with OUD admitted to prisons and jails

	Pregnant people with OUD admitted to prisons (n= 117) N (%)	Pregnant people with OUD admitted to jails (n= 50) N (%)*
Detoxification	36 (31)	16 (33)
Detoxification without medication∫	5 (14)	0
Detoxification with medication	31 (86)	16 (100)
MOUD (initiated in custody or continued from the community)	81 (69)	37 (73)
Methadone	63 (78)	30
Buprenorphine	18 (22)	7

^*Jails reported 50 pregnant women with OUD were admitted, but reported a total of 53 admitted women who went through detoxification or placed on MOUD. This discrepancy between diagnosis of OUD and interventions for OUD may be due to under-classification of OUD diagnosis.

^∫Medication for detoxification included non-opioid medications or opioids that were not continued for maintenance.
