Of 3438 women screened, 330 eligible women were assigned to usual care (n = 165) or intervention (n=165). Due to missing data, we analyzed 125 in the intervention group and 126 in the usual care group.\nMEASUREMENTS: The measurements were the proportion of women with any alcohol use and the number of drinks per day, reported via follow-up telephone interviews at 4 and 8 weeks after enrollment, 32 weeks of gestation, and 6 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months postpartum.\nFINDINGS: In random effects models adjusted for confounders, the intervention group was less likely to use any alcohol (odds ratio 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.23-1.09; P=0.08) and consumed fewer drinks per day (coefficient -0.11; 95% CI -0.23-0.01; P=0.07) than, the usual care group in the postpartum period but these differences were non-significant. Missing data during the prenatal period prevented us from modeling prenatal alcohol use.\nCONCLUSIONS: Brief motivational enhancement intervention delivered in an obstetrical outpatient setting did not conclusively decrease alcohol use during the postpartum period.","tracks":[{"project":"Allie","denotations":[{"id":"SS1_24315218_14_0","span":{"begin":1417,"end":1436},"obj":"expanded"},{"id":"SS2_24315218_14_0","span":{"begin":1438,"end":1440},"obj":"abbr"}],"relations":[{"id":"AE1_24315218_14_0","pred":"abbreviatedTo","subj":"SS1_24315218_14_0","obj":"SS2_24315218_14_0"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"SS1_24315218_14_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"},{"subj":"SS2_24315218_14_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"Allie","color":"#93ecd6","default":true}]}]}}
