Abstract

Depression is common during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. It is reported that the Covid-19 pandemic has further increased the prevalence of perinatal depression. Perinatal depression may affect the women’s self-care and quality of life, as well as the development of the fetus, children, and the mental health of partners. Midwives play an active role in the care of women and their families in the perinatal period. Providing education opportunities for midwives related to the care of women with low mood may help women to continue their daily routines, reschedule the tasks that they have postponed, realise the importance of taking time for themselves, and understand the critical importance of spending quality time with their family and friends for maintaining their mental and social health. Providing information to women who take antidepressants and planning a pregnancy or is pregnant or breastfeeding, is crucial for maintaining the wellbeing of women and their babies. This literature review aims to examine the recent approaches regarding the detection and management of perinatal depression and to help midwives in providing basic suggestions for women with perinatal low mood.

Perinatal Depresyon, Yönetimi ve Ebelik Bakımı: Literatür Derlemesi Perinatal Depresyon

Abstract

Depresyon, gebelik ve doğum sonu dönemde yaygın olarak görülmektedir. Kovid-19 pandemisinin perinatal depresyon görülme sıklığını daha da arttırdığı bildirilmektedir. Perinatal depresyon kadınların öz bakımlarını ve yaşam kalitelerini etkilediği gibi, fetüsün, bebeklerin, çocukların gelişimini ve eşlerin de akıl sağlığını etkileyebilmektedir. Ebeler, perinatal dönemde kadın ve ailesinin bakımında etkin rol almaktadırlar. Depresyonun erken tespit edilmesi, yönetimi ve bakımı ile ilgili olarak ebelere verilecek olan eğitim, kadın ve ailesinin akıl sağlığının korunması ve yaşam kalitesinin yükseltilmesine yardımcı olabilir. Özellikle düşük modu olan kadınlara, ebeler tarafından verilebilecek olan öneriler, kadınların günlük rutinlerine devam etmelerine, yapmaları gereken ancak erteledikleri işleri tekrar planlamalarına, kendileri için vakit ayırmanın önemini idrak etmelerine, aileleri ve arkadaşlarıyla kaliteli vakit geçirmenin sosyal ve duygusal sağlıkları için önemli olduğunu anlamalarına yardımcı olabilir. Antidepresan kullanan ve gebelik planlayan veya gebelik ya da emzirme sürecinde antidepresan kullanması gereken kadınlara, ebeler tarafından verilecek bilgiler, bu dönemlerin bilinçli bir şekilde geçirilmesi ve kadın ve çocukların sağlığının korunması bakımından önemlidir. Bu literatür derlemesi, perinatal depresyonun tanımı, tespit edilmesi, yönetimi ve ebelik bakımı ile ilgili olarak güncel yaklaşımları incelemeyi amaçlamıştır.
