A Preliminary Study Investigating the Effectiveness of the Caring for Body and Mind in Pregnancy (CBMP) in Reducing Perinatal Depression, Anxiety and Stress

Considerations for the design of a perinatal mindfulness intervention for adolescents based on a systematic review of the literature

“…In addition, 78 full text articles did not meet eligibility criteria and were excluded due to: (1) mindfulness intervention did not fit criteria (n = 18), (2) target population was not specified (n = 24), (3) original data not presented (n = 12), ( 4) primary outcome data not reported (n = 18), and ( 5) no extractable data relevant to review (n = 6). Sixteen mindfulness-based studies in 15 publications with perinatal women met our inclusion criteria and were included in our review (Beattie, Hall, Biro, East, & Lau, 2017;Byrne et al, 2013;Dunn, Hanieh, Roberts, & Powrie, 2012;Duncan & Bardacke, 2010;Duncan et al, 2017;Goodman et al, 2014;Guardino, Dunkel Schetter, Bower, Lu, & Smalley, 2013;Krusche, Dymond, Murphy, & Crane, 2018;Matvienko-Sikar & Dockray, 2017;Muthukrishnan, Jain, Kohli, & Batra, 2016;Pan et al, 2019;Townshend, Caltabiano, Powrie, & O'Grady, 2018;Vieten & Astin, 2008;Warriner, Crane, Dymond, & Krusche, 2018;Woolhouse et al, 2014). Woolhouse et al (2014) conducted a non-randomized trial and a randomized pilot-controlled trial as two separate studies within the same published article.…”

“…Out of the 16 studies, 15 were primarily conducted in high-income countries (World Bank Group, 2018), including five studies in the USA (Duncan & Bardacke, 2010;Duncan et al, 2017;Goodman et al, 2014;Guardino et al, 2014;Vieten & Astin, 2008;), three in the United Kingdom (Krusche et al, 2018;Matvienko-Sikar & Dockray, 2017;Warriner et al, 2018), five in Australia (Beattie et al, 2017;Byrne et al, 2013;Dunn et al, 2012;Townshend et al, 2018;Woolhouse et al, 2014), and one study in Taiwan (Pan et al, 2019). Only one study was conducted in a middle to low-income country, India (Muthukrishnan et al, 2016).…”

“…IHTP, 1(2), 226-248, 2021 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 Table 3 describes the quality of these seven studies which were assessed as having a high or unclear bias due to allocation sequence, allocation concealment, baseline outcome measures, and/or baseline characteristics, incomplete outcome data due to attrition, knowledge of allocated intervention, no protection against contamination, selective outcome reporting, and independence from intervention changes are also of concern based on Data Extraction and Assessment Template (DEAT; Cochrane Public Health Group, N.D.) form (Byrne et al, 2013;Duncan & Bardacke, 2010;Dunn et al, 2012;Goodman et al, 2014;Townshend et al, 2018;Warriner et al, 2018;Woolhouse et al, 2014 part 1).…”

“…Of the 16 studies included in this review which examined the perinatal adult population, 13 studies evaluated stress, nine studies explored anxiety and 14 studies reviewed depression. Six studies looked at all three outcomes (Byrne et al, 2013;Townshend et al, 2018;Vieten & Astin, 2008;Warriner et al, 2018;Woolhouse et al, 2014). Anxiety was evaluated in nine studies and all nine studies found statistically significant decreases (Byrne et al, 2013;Duncan & Bardacke, 2010;Goodman et al,2014;Guardino et al, 2014;Townshend et al, 2018;Vieten & Astin, 2008;Warriner et al, 2018;Woolhouse et al, 2014).…”

Determining of the Relationship Between Mindful Attention Awareness, Depression, Anxiety And Stress in Pregnancy

“…Gebelerin bilinçli farkındalık düzeyleri ile stres, anksiyete ve depresyon düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendiren çalışmalarda, benzer şekilde, bilinçli farkındalık düzeyleri arttıkça stres, algılanan stres, anksiyete ve depresyon düzeyleri azalmıştır (6,(16)(17)(18) . Bilinçli farkındalık temelli yaklaşımların uygulandığı çalışmalarda ise gebelerin bilinçli farkındalık düzeylerinin arttığı ve bu duruma bağlı olarak anksiyete, depresyon ve stres düzeylerinin azaldığı belirlenmiştir (19)(20)(21)(22) . Öyleyse gebelerde bilinçli farkındalık ile depresyon, anksiyete ve stres arasında bir ilişki olduğu söylenebilir.…”
