“…Em outros trabalhos, a prevalência variou de 7,2% a 39,4% 7,18,19,20,21 . A divergência entre as prevalências encontradas pode ser explicada pela diferença no momento da aferição, no ponto de corte utilizado na EPDS, no instrumento usado para identificar a depressão, além dos fatores culturais e socioeconômicos da região em que a pesquisa foi realizada.…”

“…In our study, with the purpose of decreasing this potential bias, we have adopted the highest cutoff point (13) Among the variables evaluated in this study, the final logistic regression model has shown that only "more severe pain" and "constant mood changes" have remained associated to PPD. A study 5 developed in Brazil has not found association between PPD and variables such as age, marital status, education level, family income and number of children. Simultaneously, a study carried out in France has not found relation between PPD and sociodemographic and clinical variables 4 .…”

However, admitting the limitations regarding the use of this tool, all puerperal women with scores indicating PPD were revaluated by a psychiatrist for diagnostic confirmation.…”

“…A metaanalysis has estimated that PPD is prevalent worldwide and affects 10% to 15% of women [2]. In the Brazilian population, the incidence of maternal depression in the samples studied ranged from 7.2% [3] to 26.9% [4]. PPD differs from the "baby blues" because in most cases it affects the functionality of the mother and endangers the well-being of both the mother and the baby.…”
