Filter by:Background: The gestational diabetes mellitus and perinatal depression are both global public health issues with high prevalence. Non-perinatal diabetes mellitus and depression are confirmed to have reciprocal influence, which is bidirectional relationship. However, there are still no any confirmations of relationship in the perinatal period. The reason could be that these kinds of studies mostly had been done for postpartum depression, they had rarely been discussed with a clearly sequential influence between gestational diabetes mellitus and perinatal depression. Additionally, there have not been so many Asian countries which been done this kind of studies, therefore, this study will focus on the relationship of primiparous gestational diabetes mellitus and perinatal depression. Purpose: This study will discuss the bidirectional relationship of gestational diabetes mellitus and perinatal depression. In the other words, the prenatal depression influences on gestational diabetes mellitus, and vice versa. Those changeable factors, such as social support, health behavior, prenatal body index, weight gain during pregnancy, perinatal complications…etc, will be tested for whether they could be regulators or not between the gestational diabetes mellitus and perinatal depression.Afterwards, a part of participants with diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus will receive the intervention of health education to influence the health behavior, then depression and other obstetrics and gynecological results will be tested for effects.
Detailed Description The doula-led intervention developed during the first phase of this project will be pilot tested for feasibility. Following the recruitment procedures described in the recruitment and retention plan, approximately 75 participants will be enrolled into the study. Twenty-five of the participants will receive regular doula care and 25 of the participants will receive care from a doula trained in the PMAD doula training throughout their pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum time period, following the intervention procedures developed in Aim 2 of this study. Twenty-five women will not receive care from a doula and will receive perinatal care as usual. Women in all groups will take surveys via REDCap during their enrollment in the intervention, at 1 month postpartum, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum (at the conclusion of the intervention). All participants who receive the PMAD doula intervention will complete checklists after each session with their doula, to assess fidelity to the intervention. Participant communication with their doula via patient notebook will also be assessed for fidelity to the intervention.
Title: "Feasibility and acceptability study of "Mamá, te entiendo": an app-based intervention for reducing depressive symptoms in postpartum women" Funding: This work was funded by the Chilean National Agency of Research and Development (ANID Doctorado Nacional 2019 - 21190745). General objective: To assess the feasibility and acceptability of a guided 8-week cognitive-behavioral app-based intervention for Chilean postpartum women with depressive symptoms. Design: A small-scale parallel 2-arms trial will be conducted. Postpartum women with minor or major depression will be randomized to the app-based intervention or waitlist. The primary outcomes are feasibility and acceptability variables, mainly; recruitment and eligibility rates, intervention and study adherence, and participants' intervention satisfaction, use, and engagement. Semi-structured interviews with a sub-sample will provide more information about the participants' experience with the intervention. Women's depression diagnostic status will be assessed at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 1-month follow-up. Other secondary outcomes will include participants' perceived social support, mother-infant bonding, and maternal satisfaction and self-efficacy.
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of nutrition and physical intervention to improve psychosocial well-being of postpartum mothers with preterm infants. The focus was highlighted towards the mothers of preterm infants who were cared in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as these parents might have a higher stress level than the full-term infants. The intervention consisted of a module designed for postpartum mothers, incorporating nutrition and physical activity entitled Mommies can Eat & Exercise with No Stress (MomEENS).
This study will test the effect of a mobile mindfulness-based intervention on reducing post-cesarean delivery pain and preventing postpartum depression.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a text message intervention called Essential Coaching for Every Mother in Tanzania to improve mothers' access to essential newborn care information during the immediate six-week postnatal period.
Postpartum depression is a serious illness that affects approximately 17% of women who have recently given birth. Untreated depression appears to have negative effects for both the mother and her baby. Postpartum depression is quite common among women with a history of depression. Sleeplessness is a common concern during pregnancy and after delivery, and it can also trigger depression in women with a history of depression. Antidepressants are the most commonly recommended drugs for prevention of postpartum depression; however, there is limited research to understand the effectiveness of the medications in preventing postpartum depression. Trazodone is a weak antidepressant, but it is commonly prescribed for sleeplessness due to physical or psychiatric disorders. We are planning a study to find out whether trazodone in a low dose is more effective than a sugar pill in preventing postpartum depression among women with histories of depression. We expect the results of our study will make it easier for healthcare providers to select the right medication for women who are at risk of developing depression after delivery and thus improve the mental health of mothers and well-being of their babies.
The goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a culturally-tailored mobile interactive education and support group intervention to supplement standard postpartum care activities in comparison to standard care alone on health-related behaviors and health outcomes in a randomized controlled trial among 2100 postpartum Indian women living in 3 geographically diverse Indian states to estimate the impact on maternal and neonatal health-related knowledge, health-related behaviors, and health outcomes. The investigators also seek to characterize mechanisms of impact including knowledge, social support, self-efficacy, and behavior change, and determine the cost-effectiveness.
Different concentrations of Esketamine were used after cesarean section. Through the evaluation of postoperative psychological status and analgesic effect, the optimal dosage of Esketamine to exert the effects of depression and analgesia was analyzed.
By 2030, depression will be the leading global disease burden. Postnatal depression due to childbirth/parenting leads to long-term negative consequences for mothers, their children and their families. The British African/Caribbean communities are worse hit by the unprecedented impact of post-Covid-19-syndromes, leading to an exponential increase in postnatal depression. Yet, the uptake of mental healthcare by British mothers of African and Caribbean origin is low due to limited access to culturally appropriate care. Theories of attachment and cognitivism were innovatively integrated to examine Learning-Through-Play plus (LTP+) intervention for postnatal depression using a pilot randomised controlled trial. The proposed LTP+ is co-developed and ecologically friendly because it is manualised and can be delivered by non-mental health specialists such as trained community health workers who are more culturally knowledgeable. Findings will be disseminated through academic publications/presentations, policy briefs, original animated videos and podcast series laying the foundations for a psychosocial approach to tackling postnatal depression
