“…Maleki et al [ 29 ], in a study on Iranian fathers, used an EPDS cut-off score of 10 or more based upon that used in a study of principally Portuguese men [ 30 ]. They did not however give a rationale for using the same cut-off score for men from these two cultures, nor did they comment on the fact that the Portuguese study that they referred to had not given an empirical rationale for the cut-off score chosen for their men.…”

Background: The most commonly used mood screening instrument in perinatal health is the Edinburgh Depression Scale. The screen-positive cut-off score on this scale, as for others, has been determined, via validation techniques, for over 20 languages/cultures, and for both women and men. While such validation appears to be considered essential, there are studies that could be interpreted to suggest that this is not an important consideration. Methods: Selective studies have been chosen to indicate these opposing points of view. Results: Examples of studies that support the notion of validating cut-off scores are described, as are examples of studies that appear not to support this point of view. Conclusions: (i) Clinical services and researchers need to be mindful of these opposing points of view, and openly discuss them when using screening cut-off scores for their respective populations. (ii) Researchers and Journals need to be more rigorous in ensuring this issue is correctly reported in studies, and/or openly discussed when relevant.

“…Psychologically, paternal depression during their partners' pregnancy has been linked to fathers' reported Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) (experiencing trauma as children) (Skjothaug et al, 2015). Prenatal depression is also a predictor of PND in fathers (Maleki et al, 2018), suggesting that pregnancy is a time of increased mental health needs for men. This is also experienced on a broader level than PND.…”

Exploring fathers’ experiences of seeking support for postnatal depression

Paternal postnatal depression (PND) is a condition that negatively affects fathers to a largely similar extent as mothers. Despite this, it is not commonly understood in society, which translates into a lack of support for fathers in healthcare settings. Fathers' PND experiences are different from those of mothers with PND, including anger, denial, and increased suicide risk. The impact of paternal PND is not only limited to fathers, with the condition being linked to depression in mothers, and issues around the psychological wellbeing of children. Nurses may face barriers in their knowledge of paternal PND due to a lack of historic research, but can use their own professional skills, incorporating NMC values, alongside the lived experiences of fathers, to provide support and care to depressed fathers. Using a family-centred approach is of benefit when supporting fathers with PND, and can reduce stigma and support fathers disclosing depression and help-seeking.

“…Często jest to depresja z lękiem o silnej manifestacji somatycznej, w związku z tym trwa nawet dyskusja ekspertów na temat uzupełnienia skal służących do mierzenia głębokości depresji skalami natężenia lęku z somatyzacją w populacji ojców [26]. Badacze przedmiotu podkreślają, że dysforia jest istotną składową depresji u mężczyzn, między innymi ze względu na jej wpływ na relację partnerską, możliwe zachowania przemocowe w stosunku do najbliższych [26][27][28]. Właśnie między innymi z tego powodu tak ważne są działania profilaktyczne chroniące cały system rodzinny przed najtrudniejszymi doświadczeniami.…”

Specialists have been discussing for many years about gender effects on the psychopathology of depression. Despite decades of research on perinatal depression in women, it is still possible to get mpression that we know too little about this mental disorder in the perinatal period. In addition, it turns out that a similar clinical phenomenon can also affect men (who will or have been recently fathers). In this area there are few reports of the consequences of depression in father. They emphasize the significant impact of disease not only on live of adult family members, but also perhapsespecially on physical and emotional development of newborn child. The purpose of the article is to describe the perinatal depression in fathers, as it appears in daily clinical practice. The results of a few reports describing perinatal depression of men tend to be poorly understood disorder and therefore requiring further research.
