A survey of 4000 women within 4-6 weeks postpartum in 80 communities in Shenzhen, China was performed using random cluster sampling method. By employing Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale （EPDS） as a screening tool, the positive women （defined as EPDS 〉10） were randomly divided into intervention group and control group at a ratio of 1：2. The women in the intervention group were treated by means of mailing postpartum depression prevention and treatment knowledge manual, face-to-face counseling, and telephone psychological counseling interventions aiming at individual risk factors, while those in the control group were treated with conventional methods. EPDS scores were assessed in these two groups again at 6th month postpartum. Totally, 3907 valid questionnaires were obtained. All the 771 positive women were divided into two groups： 257 in the intervention group, and 514 in the control group. At 6th month postpartum, the EPDS scores in the intervention group were decreased significantly, from baseline stage （12.84±3.02） to end stage （3.05±2.93）, while EPDS scores in the control group were reduced from 12.44±2.78 to 6.94±4.02. There were significant differences in the EPDS scores at end stage between the two groups （t=13.059, P〈0.001）. Psychological intervention can reduce postpartum depression, with better maternal compliance. It is feasible and necessary to establish postpartum depression screening and psychological intervention model in community-hospital and include the postpartum depression screening, intervention, and follow-up into the conventional healthcare.展开更多

文摘目的评估硬膜外分娩镇痛(LEA)对产妇产后抑郁(PPD)的影响。方法选择经阴道分娩的初产妇628例,年龄20~36岁,BMI 20~35 kg/m 2,ASAⅡ或Ⅲ级。根据产妇是否接受硬膜外分娩镇痛分为两组:镇痛组(n=322)和非镇痛组(n=306)。记录分娩期间VAS疼痛评分最高值、产程时间、出血量、新生儿1、5 min Apgar评分和新生儿入NICU的发生情况。于分娩前1周和产后2周、6周分别采用爱丁堡产后抑郁量表(EPDS)评估PPD发生情况(EPDS评分≥11分为PPD),采用广泛性焦虑量表(GAD-7)评估产妇焦虑情绪,采用领悟社会支持量表(PSSS)评估产妇感受到的总社会支持度。结果与非镇痛组比较,镇痛组产妇分娩期间VAS疼痛评分最高值明显降低(P<0.05)。两组产妇第一产程时间、第二产程时间、出血量、新生儿1、5 min Apgar评分、新生儿入NICU比例差异无统计学意义。两组产妇产后2、6周PPD发生率、PSSS高支持状态、GAD-7≥10分差异无统计学意义。结论初产妇接受LEA不影响产后抑郁的发生风险。
