Filter by:The proposed study is to test the effectiveness of a culturally-attuned, family-based mobile health (mHealth) intervention in reducing symptoms of postnatal depression and promoting health among expectant mothers in Hong Kong. Using a family perspective, the proposed mHealth intervention will engage family members, including expectant fathers and grandparents, in providing support to expectant mothers. Expectant mothers and their family members will be recruited at antenatal clinics at two public hospitals in Hong Kong and randomized to receive the family-based mHealth intervention (experimental), the mother-only mHealth intervention (experimental), or the health education (control). Maternal depression, anxiety and stress, perceived social support, health-related quality of life, and perceived family cohesion will be assessed at recruitment and four weeks after childbirth. For family members, symptoms of anxiety and stress, health-related quality of life, and perceived family cohesion will be measured.
The primary objective of this study is to determine if online group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for maternal postpartum depression (PPD) added to treatment as usual (TAU) leads to greater improvements in infant emotion regulation (ER) than maternal receipt of TAU alone immediately post-treatment and 6 months later. This study will also aim to determine what mechanisms PPD treatment leads to changes in infant ER.
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.
The study was planned as a two-group parallel randomized controlled experimental study in order to determine the effects of the nurse navigation program developed for mothers in the postpartum period on mothers' self-care power, quality of life, anxiety and depression risks, and physical symptom severity. The study will be carried out in Ankara Etlik Zübeyde Hanım Gynecology Training and Research Hospital. The population of the research will be primiparous mothers who gave birth vaginally in Ankara.
This study is a pilot, single-center, randomized controlled trial. It will 1. determine feasibility and acceptability of an evidence-based intervention for prevention of postpartum depression with antepartum patients on a high-risk obstetric unit, 2. determine what adaptations may be needed for an inpatient population 3. determine what retention strategies are most successful and acceptable for this patient population 4. estimate the effect size of an intervention for in-hospital distress, anxiety and depression 5. estimate the effect size of an intervention to reduce the risk of a post-partum depression diagnosis or depressive symptoms.
Severe uterine contractions in labor can trigger emotional disorders including postpartum depression in women during the puerperium. Numerous studies have shown that resting frontal electroencephalogram (EEG) asymmetry is closely related to depression. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that the frontal alpha asymmetry in EEG during uterine contractions in the first stage of labor be associated with the risk level of postpartum depression. The objective of this research is to investigate, in a 1-year period, the incidence of postpartum depression in natural birth mothers in relation to frontal alpha asymmetry in EEG during uterine contractions and resting state.
After birth, the mother-child dyad can be impacted by issues which are usually under-detected or detected at early stage. Among these issues, neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) such as autism spectrum disorder are common and affect 1 in 59 children but are detected after 4 years of age although it could be detected using parent report screens as early as 12 or 18 months of age. Moreover, parents are the main contributors of the screening of NDD in their children. In a recent French survey, the identification of the first symptoms was done by parents in 61% of cases and a health professional in only 14% and the mean age of disease detection was 6.8 years for autism spectrum disorder. Other troubles that deserve early screening are hearing disorders which are observed in 1 child in 300 at 3 years of age and the main visual trouble in toddlers such as amblyopia which is observed with a prevalence of 3%. Another issue that deserves improvement is the rate of mandatory or recommended vaccines in toddler which is only 71% for C-meningococcus and 79% for measles or rubella. Concerning the mother, postnatal depression is defined as an episode of minor or major depression occurring during the first year postpartum with a pooled prevalence of 17.7%. Despite the high prevalence of this disorder and its potential impact on child development it remains underdetected and undertreated in daily practice. The common point between all these disorders is that they can benefit from early detection by questionnaires intended for parents for their children or for themselves, because early treatment improves prognosis or prevent diseases. An "all-in-one" multi-domain familial digital health record Patient reported outcomes application has been developing to help for early screening of neurodevelopmental disorders of toddler after birth to 3 years of age and mother's postnatal depression, to improve vaccinations rate of toddlers and to provide advice to parents for child development. The aim of the study is to assess in a real-world data-based the performances of this application.
Postpartum depression (PPD) may impair the mother-infant relationship and lead to both short and long-term suboptimal development of the baby. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a targeted intervention (HUGS: Happiness Understanding Giving and Sharing) for enhancing the mother-infant relationship.
The delivery process can be associated with significant maternal pain. which has many long and short term affects. The aim of our study is to assess whether pain during and after childbirth negatively impacts a mother's attachment to her baby (maternal bonding) and the increases the incidence of postpartum depression.
