“…Certain variables have been associated to alterations of the mother's mood, it has been suggested that high risk pregnancies, obstetric complications or prematureness all contribute to the development of depressive symptoms (Agoub, Moussaoui, and Battas, 2005;Davis, Edwards, Mohay, and Wollin, 2003;Korja et al, 2008;Piyasil and Pichaiyut, 2011;Verdoux, Sutter, Glatigny-Dallay, and Minisini, 2002;Verkerk, Pop, Van Son, and Van Heck, 2003;Vigod, Villegas, Dennis, and Ross, 2010). In births that produce neonatal complications (foetal suffering or hospitalization of the new-born) there is an increase of depressive symptoms (Blom et al, 2010).…”

Título: Personalidad, síntomas depresivos en el embarazo y su influencia en la depresión postparto en gestantes españolas. Resumen: El objetivo del presente estudio es analizar la influencia de los factores de personalidad y los síntomas depresivos antenatales en la depresión puerperal. Se elaboró un diseño ex post facto prospectivo, con una asignación voluntaria de los sujetos. La muestra se compuso de 116 mujeres, captándose en el primer trimestre de embarazo y terminando el estudio a los cuatro meses postparto. Los instrumentos de medición empleados fueron la escala Edinburg Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) para evaluar la depresión postparto, el NEO-Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) para analizar la personalidad y la subescala de depresión del Symptoms Check List 90-R (SCL 90-R) para valorar la depresión en el embarazo. Se tuvieron en cuenta variables sociodemográficas (edad, paridad, nivel de estudios, situación laboral, y planificación de embarazo) y clínicas (Apgar neonatal y tipo de parto). Se encontró una relación positiva entre la depresión postparto y los síntomas depresivos durante la gestación, sin embargo tras realizar un análisis de regresión se vio que el neuroticismo era el único factor que predecía los síntomas depresivos postparto, explicando un 24.8% de la varianza. El neuroticismo influye considerablemente en la salud psicológica ante acontecimientos vitales como es la maternidad. Debido a su condición estable, la personalidad podría evaluarse desde el inicio del embarazo, incidiendo en la atención de aquellas mujeres con un rasgo predominante de neuroticismo para prevenir, detectar y tratar precozmente la depresión puerperal. Palabras clave: personalidad; embarazo; depresión postparto; mujer. Abstract:The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of personality factors and antenatal depressive symptomatology in postnatal depression. A prospective ex post facto design was carried out. The sample consisted of 116 women, recruited in their first trimester of pregnancy and followed up until four months postpartum. The measurement instruments used were the Edinburg Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) to assess postpartum depression, the NEO-Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) to analyse personality traits and the depression subscale of the Symptoms Check List 90 (SCL-90-R) to assess depressive symptomatology in the first half of pregnancy. Socio-demographic variables (age, parity, educational level, employment status, and planned pregnancy) and clinical variables (neonatal Apgar score and mode of delivery) were also taken into account. A positive correlation was found between postpartum depression and depressive symptomatology in the first trimester; however after the regression analysis neuroticism was the only factor that predicted postpartum depressive symptoms, explaining 24.8% of the variance. Neuroticism significantly influences psychological health during life events such as motherhood. Due to its stable condition, personality could be assessed from the beginning of pregnancy, contributing ...

Objective: To identify and describe research tools used to evaluate bonding between mother and child up to one year of age, as well as to provide information on reliability and validity measures related to these tools. Data source: Research studies available on PUBMED, LILACS, ScienceDirect, PsycINFO and CINAHL databases with the following descriptors: mother-child relations and mother infant relationship, as well as the expressions validity, reliability and scale. Data synthesis: 23 research studies were selected and fully analyzed. Thirteen evaluation research tools were identified concerning mother and child attachment: seven scales, three questionnaires, two inventories and one observation method. From all tools analyzed, the Prenatal Attachment Inventory presented the higher validity and reliability measures to assess mother and fetus relation during pregnancy. Concerning the puerperal period, better consistency coefficients were found for Maternal Attachment Inventory and Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire. Besides, the last one revealed a higher sensibility to identify amenable and severe disorders in the affective relations between mother and child. Conclusions: The majority of research tools are reliable to study the phenomenon presented, although there are some limitations regarding the construct and criterion related to validity. In addition to this, only two of them are translated into Portuguese and adapted to women and children populations in Brazil, being a decisive gap to scientific production in this area. 258Perrelli JGA et al.

Fonte de dados: Trata-se de um estudo de revisão integrativa realizado com base nas publicações contidas nas bases de dados PUBMED, LILACS, ScienceDirect, PsycINFO e CINAHL. Utilizaram-se os descritores mother-child relations e mother infant relationship, e as expressões validity, reliability e scale. Selecionaram-se 23 pesquisas, que foram lidas em sua integralidade. Síntese dos dados: Foram identificados 13 instrumentos de avaliação do apego entre mãe e bebê: sete escalas, três questionários, dois inventários e um método de observação. Do total de ferramentas analisadas, o Prenatal Attachment Inventory apresentou maior validade e confiabilidade para analisar a relação entre a mãe e o feto durante a gestação. Quanto ao período puerperal, foram encontrados melhores coeficientes de consistência interna para o Maternal Attachment Inventory e o Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire. Além disso, esse último revelou elevada sensibilidade para identificar disfunções leves e graves nas relações afetivas entre mãe e bebê. Conclusões: Verificou-se que a maioria dos instrumentos é confiável para estudar...

“…Depressive symptoms occur in over 25% of mothers of multiple births (Leonard, 1998). Other investigators evaluated maternal depressive symptoms with different measures including the BDI and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), finding that mothers of preterm infants in the NICU reported higher depressive symptom scores (Korja et al, 2008;Padovani et al, 2009). Of the studies done on parental depressive symptoms, only one study was found that reported fathers' CES-D mean scores, which were elevated (≥ 16) (Mackley et al, 2010).…”

Maternal depression is associated with mother–infant interaction in preterm infants

Abstract: This study suggests that maternal depression may be a risk factor in the development of the mother-infant relationship between preterm infants and their mothers. Therefore, it would be important to identify signs of depression in mothers of preterm infants to offer early support.
