“…Our review identified 16 school/education-based management interventions [83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,96,97,98]. Two of the above-mentioned management interventions aimed at improving mathematical skills and behavior in children with FASD [83,87].…”

“…We identified an intervention developed to reduce alcohol consumption and alcohol-related negative outcomes among adolescents with FASD [93], a highly motivating modality intervention [85], the classroom language and literacy intervention [86] and group therapy for foster and adoptive caregivers and their children affected with FASD [68]. These interventions reduced the alcohol use and prevented secondary disabilities among adolescents with FASD [70], improved sensory adaptation, balance and motor performance [85], cognitive [86], executive functioning and emotional problem-solving [92] in children with FASD respectively.…”

“…We found management interventions such as social skills interventions [90,91,100], school-based interventions [83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93] and family-centered interventions [91,99,100,102,103] effective for the management of FASD. Social skills interventions were effective in managing information-processing deficits in individuals with FASD [90,91,100].…”

The global prevalence of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) remains high despite the various preventive and management interventions that have been designed and implemented to tackle the issue in various settings. The aim of the scoping review is to identify and classify prevention and management interventions of FASD reported globally across the life span and to map the concentration of these interventions across the globe. We searched some selected databases with predefined terms. Framework and narrative approaches were used to synthesize and report on the findings. Thirty-two prevention intervention studies and 41 management interventions studies were identified. All the interventions were reported to be effective or showed promising outcomes for the prevention and management of FASD, except four. Although Europe and Africa have a relatively higher prevalence of FASD, the lowest number of interventions to address FASD were identified in these regions. Most of the interventions for FASD were reported in North America with comparatively lower FASD prevalence. The uneven distribution of interventions designed for FASD vis-à-vis the burden of FASD in the different regions calls for a concerted effort for knowledge and intervention sharing to enhance the design of contextually sensitive preventive and management policy in the different regions.
