“…Thirteen of the 53 studies [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] compared the care provided by midwives with that provided by doctors working in a team with midwives. On meta-analysis, no significant difference in the antenatal hospitalization rate was found between care provided by midwives alone and that provided by doctors working with midwives (RR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.79-1.13).…”

A pproximately 13% of women from diverse cultures will experience postpartum depression (PPD) within the first 12 weeks after childbirth (1). This hidden morbidity has well-documented health consequences for the mother, child, and family. While women who have suffered from PPD are twice as likely to experience future episodes of depression over a 5-year period (2), infants and children are particularly vulnerable. PPD can cause impaired maternal-infant interactions (3) and negative perceptions of infant behaviour (4), which have been linked to attachment insecurity (5,6), Results: Twenty-nine studies that met criteria were examined. These included studies evaluating interpersonal psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, psychological debriefing, antenatal classes, intrapartum support, supportive interactions, continuity of care, antenatal identification and notification, early postpartum follow-up, flexible postpartum care, educational strategies, and relaxation with guided imagery. Conclusions:While this review demonstrates that no specific approach can be strongly recommended for clinical practice, many explicit research implications have been highlighted. To further address PPD as a public health problem, it is critical to include ethnically and socioeconomically diverse women in research efforts examining the differences among depression symptoms, intervention response rates, and health service use.( Can J Psychiatry 2004;49:526-538) Information on funding and support and author affiliations appears at the end of the article. Clinical Implications· Translating risk-factor research into predictive screening protocols and preventive interventions has met with limited success; complex interactions of biopsychosocial risk factors with individual variations need to be contemplated. · No specific approach can be strongly recommended for clinical practice. · It is critical to include ethnically and socioeconomically diverse women in research efforts examining the differences among depression symptoms, intervention response rates, and health service use. Limitation· Descriptive studies were excluded.

Can we prevent postnatal depression? A randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of continuity of midwifery care on rates of postnatal depression in high-risk women

Abstract: While continuous midwifery care had no impact on psychiatric outcome, it was highly successful at engaging women in treatment and therefore has an important contribution to make in the care of child-bearing women with mental health problems.
