Depression and Suicidality During Pregnancy

Abstract: Perinatal depression is a state which should be given more attention. The recognition of perinatal depression during pregnancy allows health medical workers to observe pregnant women at risk and then to make preventive and clinical interventions. The risk for perinatal depression is higher in pregnant women with more expressed depressive and anxiety symptoms. Pregnant women with suicidal thoughts are more anxious and depressed.

“…Due to hormonal and anatomical changes and other factors including heavier care burdens, pregnant and postnatal women are more likely to suffer from psychological disturbances, particularly depression [25]. In this study, the prevalence of depression was 7.45% (95%CI: 5.87-9.04%) among pregnant and postpartum women, a rate that was lower than estimates from recent China-based meta-analyses [11,12].…”

“…A literatura internacional reporta prevalência aproximada de 25% 2 , com aumento ligeiro no terceiro trimestre de gestação [23][24] . Estudos recentes referem prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva pré-natal de 23,4% 25 no termo da gestação (entre 37 e 39 semanas), valores inferiores à prevalência obtida neste estudo. Diferentes estudos apontam para o aumento de alterações do sono durante a gestação 26 .…”

“…No presente estudo, a avaliação da consistência interna da PDSS 24 demonstrou que a confiabilidade aumentava com a exclusão do item F4 -"Dificuldades em dormir". Isso revela uma associação plausível entre a prevalência da sintomatologia depressiva pré-natal obtida (superior à da literatura internacional e nacional 2,[22][23][24][25] ) e a elevada prevalência de alterações do padrão de sono no período final da gravidez. Essa associação traduz-se, possivelmente, numa sobrestimação da prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva pré-natal, neste estudo.…”

“…Mothers who suffer from PPD are also more likely to develop depression in the future 3,4 . PPD is often associated with a high risk of suicide, poor marital relationships, infanticide, and poor child development 58 . Accumulative evidence suggests that domestic violence, history of depression, stressful life events, marital dissatisfaction, lack of emotional or social support, anger experience and expression, and foetal or neonatal health problems increase the risk of developing PPD 913 .…”
