“…Past research has used the PHQ-9 with Mexican samples (Lazarevich et al 2013) and has established the reliability of this instrument among postpartum women, including adequate sensitivity and specificity (Davis et al 2013; Gjerdingen et al 2009; Pawar et al 2011). Although the PHQ-9 measures general depressive symptoms, it has shown concordance with PPD-specific measures such as the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (Flynn et al 2011; Yawn et al 2009) and the Postpartum Depression Screening Scale (Beck and Gable 2012). Moreover, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE, 2007) guidelines list the PHQ-9 among the recommended self-report measures to use during screening and monitoring of PPD.…”

Social Support and Postpartum Depression Revisited: The Traditional Female Role as Moderator among Mexican Women

et al. 2016

Women who lack social support tend to have a higher risk of postpartum depression. The present study examined the traditional female role, understood here as the adoption of passive and submissive traits specific to Mexican women, as another risk factor for postpartum depressive symptomatology that interacts with social support. Using two waves of data from a longitudinal study of 210 adult Mexican women (20–44 years-old, Mage = 29.50 years, SD = 6.34), we found that lacking social support during the third trimester of their pregnancy was associated with greater depressive symptoms at 6 months in the postpartum, although this relationship depended on the level of endorsement of the traditional female role during pregnancy. Lower social support during pregnancy predicted greater postpartum depressive symptoms for women with higher endorsement of the traditional female role, even when accounting for prenatal depressive symptoms. These results suggest that Mexican women’s experience of social support may depend on their individual adherence to gender roles. Understanding the association between women’s traditional roles and social support in the risk for postpartum depression can improve prevention and educational programs for women at risk.

“…The PHQ-9 includes [35] nine items which will ask mothers the severity of their depressive symptoms during the past 2 weeks. The PHQ-9 has high internal consistency (α = 0.88) [49]. Anxiety symptom severity will be assessed using the GAD-7, a seven-item measure which will ask mothers their degree of anxiety symptoms over the past 2 weeks.…”

Pilot Feasibility Stud

Background Drastic increases in the rates of maternal depression and anxiety have been reported since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Most programs aim to improve maternal mental health or parenting skills separately, despite it being more effective to target both concurrently. The Building Emotional Awareness and Mental health (BEAM) program was developed to address this gap. BEAM is a mobile health program aiming to mitigate the impacts of pandemic stress on family well-being. Since many family agencies lack infrastructure and personnel to adequately treat maternal mental health concerns, a partnership will occur with Family Dynamics (a local family agency) to address this unmet need. The study’s objective is to examine the feasibility of the BEAM program when delivered with a community partner to inform a larger randomized controlled trial (RCT). Methods A pilot RCT will be conducted with mothers who have depression and/or anxiety with a child 6–18 months old living in Manitoba, Canada. Mothers will be randomized to the 10 weeks of the BEAM program or a standard of care (i.e., MoodMission). Back-end App data (collected via Google Analytics and Firebase) will be used to examine feasibility, engagement, and accessibility of the BEAM program; cost-effectiveness will also be examined. Implementation elements (e.g., maternal depression [Patient Health Questionnaire-9] and anxiety [Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7]) will be piloted to estimate the effect size and variance for future sample size calculations. Discussion In partnership with a local family agency, BEAM holds the potential to promote maternal-child health via a cost-effective and an easily accessible program designed to scale. Results will provide insight into the feasibility of the BEAM program and will inform future RCTs. Trial registration {2a} This trial was retrospectively registered with ClinicalTrial.gov (NCT05398107) on May 31st, 2022.

Background: Drastic increases in the rates of maternal depression and anxiety have been reported since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Most programs aim to improve maternal mental health or parenting skills separately, despite it being more effective to target both concurrently. The Building Emotional Awareness and Mental health (BEAM) program was developed to address this gap. BEAM is a mobile health program aiming to mitigate the impacts of pandemic stress on family well-being. Since many family agencies lack infrastructure and personnel to adequately treat maternal mental health concerns, a partnership will occur with Family Dynamics (a local family agency) to address this unmet need. This study aims to examine (1) the efficacy of BEAM, vs. standard of care, at reducing negative mental health, parenting, and child outcomes and (2) the efficacy/feasibility/acceptability of BEAM, vs. standard of care, while exploring opportunities for program development. Methods: A randomized controlled trial will compare 10 weeks of the BEAM program to standard of care among 160 (80 per group) mothers who have depression and/or anxiety and children 6-18 months old living in Manitoba, Canada. Primary (maternal depression [Patient Health Questionnaire-9] and/or anxiety [Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7]), secondary (other maternal mental health, parenting, and child outcomes), and exploratory (e.g., relationship functioning, cost effectiveness) outcomes will be self-reported at three time-points. Google Analytics and back-end App data will be used to assess the efficacy, feasibility, and acceptability of the BEAM program. A longitudinal analysis of covariance, using linear mixed modeling, will test treatment effects on outcomes of interest.Discussion: In partnership with a local family agency, BEAM holds the potential to promote maternal-child health via a cost-effective and easily accessible program designed to scale. Results may inform care and increase access to first line care for families typically waiting 12+ months to access mental health and parenting services. Trial Registration: This trial was registered with ClinicalTrial.gov on May 31st, 2022 (NCT05398107)
