The prevalence of depression and anxiety in pregnant women is increasing and this is more important in migrants who are in the vulnerable group. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of depression and anxiety in Syrian immigrant pregnant women admitted to a Migrant Health Center and the associated factors. The study is a cross-sectional study. A questionnaire prepared using sociodemographic characteristics and the Beck depression and anxiety inventories in Arabic was applied to the participants. The study was conducted with immigrant pregnant women who applied to the Migrant Health Center between July 8, 2022, and December 31, 2022. The study was conducted through health workers who speak Arabic and had received training on the subject beforehand. The mean age of the research group was 26.67 ± 5.98 years. Of the participants, 73.0 percent (%) had primary education or less, 95.0% had low income, 87.2% had 3 or less children and 98.5% described their health status as good or very good. The mean Beck anxiety inventory score of the participants was found to be 4.65 ± 3.17. The mean Beck depression inventory score was found to be 4.48 ± 2.53. Smoking and first pregnancy status were found to be associated with anxiety, whereas smoking and history of delivery beyond 42 weeks were found to be associated with depression (P ˂ .05). Anxiety and depression levels of immigrant pregnant women were found to be very low. Minimal anxiety was found in 99.3% of the immigrant pregnant women and 97.1% had no symptoms of depression. It is thought that effective psychosocial support activities for immigrant pregnant women should be carried out in a way to cover the entire target group.

A geographical relocation of people for a permanent or temporary duration in order to spend all or part of their future lives is characterized as migration. War, ethnic or religious conflicts, political pressure, inequities, unemployment rates, poverty, hope for improved living standards, familial reasons, proximity to health care services, climate, and natural catastrophes are all factors that might lead to migration. People who have changed their environment owing to migration experience post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety disorder, depression disorder, schizophrenia and related disorders, culture shock, handicap, abuse, and suicidal ideation/attempt, especially among migrating women and children. Immigrants' mental difficulties are treated with psychosocial intervention methods such as individual/group trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative exposure therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). However, the number of evidence-based psychological intervention programs for immigrants must be increased. The goal of this review is to look at the research that indicates immigrant mental problems.
