alcohol by volume (ABV): <\/strong>a universal measure of alcohol concentration in beverages, refers to milliliters of pure ethanol in 100 milliliters of the beverage (at 68o F) converted to a percentage.<\/p>\r\n

alcohol poisoning: <\/strong>term used for alcohol overdose resulting from drinking too much too quickly, raising blood alcohol concentration to high levels; potentially fatal.<\/p>\r\n

alcohol-related birth defects (ARBD): <\/strong>term covering a variety of known morphological and organ system changes resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure. Note: ARBD as an abbreviation may also refer to alcohol-related brain damage experienced later in life as a result of alcohol misuse.<\/em><\/p>\r\n

alcohol-related brain damage (ARBD): <\/strong>term covering a range of central nervous system changes (often characterized by dementia) caused by an adult\u2019s prolonged alcohol misuse. <\/strong>Note: ARBD as an abbreviation may also refer to alcohol-related birth defects.<\/em><\/p>\r\n

alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorders (ARND)<\/strong>: refers to a range of neurodevelopmental and behavioral disabilities resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure.<\/p>\r\n

ASAM levels of care: <\/strong>set of guidelines established by the American Society of Addiction Medicine matching recommended treatment intensity to assessment of individuals in need of alcohol or other substance misuse\/use disorder treatment.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

binge drinking (heavy episodic drinking):<\/strong> consuming 4 or more drinks within about 2 hours by women and 5 or more drinks in 2 hours by men.<\/p>\r\n
