Abstract:The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mindfulness based intervention program on anxiety and depressive symptoms among pregnant women. A Quasi-experimental design was used for this study. This study was conducted at antenatal outpatient clinic at El-Manial Educational University Hospital-Cairo University. A purposive sample consisted of 30 pregnant women with high risk for anxiety and depressive symptoms as confirmed by senior obstetrician according to screening sheet for high risk pregnant women. The sample was divided randomly into two groups; study and control groups (15 each). Three tools were used to collect the data for the present study; a) Personal Data Sheet; b) Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale; and c) Perceived Stress Scale. The sample was divided into two groups, fifteen pregnant women as the study group and fifteen pregnant women as control group. Aconstructed mindfulness based intervention program was developed by the researchers and implemented to the study group in ten sessions that were held twice weekly, and each session ranged from 60 to 90 minutes. The main study findings revealed that, there was a statistically significant difference between study and control groups in the reduction of anxiety and depressive symptoms. The study concluded that mindfulness based intervention program was effective with pregnant women concerning the reduction of the anxiety and depression. The study recommended that, there is a great need for performing long-term follow-up in order to evaluate the effects of Mindfulness based intervention program on different pregnancy-related outcomes such as emotional well-being, postnatal depression, and mother-infant relationships.

“…This finding is consistent with the results of a research by Sohrabi et al (2014) in which they reported a reduction in symptoms of depression in patients with Type II diabetes mellitus following the implementation of an 8-session MiCBT program (30). Yazdanimehr et al (2016) conducted a study to determine the effect of MiCBT on depression and anxiety among pregnant women. They studied 80 pregnant women, 40 in the experimental and 40 in the control groups.…”

“…This therapy has attracted the attention of some researchers in the recent years. Studies demonstrated the effectiveness of MiCBT in reducing depression and greater adherence to treatment in patients with Type II diabetes (30), lower procrastination, perfectionism and concerns among students (31), and lower depression and anxiety in pregnant women (32). However, no studies, whether in Iran or other countries, investigated the effects of MiCBT on patients suffering from chronic diseases like multiple sclerosis and stress.…”

Background: Previous studies have shown the effectiveness of cognitive behavior therapy in improvement of psychological symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and stress. Recent studies suggest that mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) are effective in reducing these psychological symptoms in chronic diseases. The present study was the first study to examine the effects of mindfulness-integrated cognitive behavior therapy (MiCBT) on common comorbid psychological symptoms in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

“…The results of this study are in line with those obtained in other studies. In a study, Yazdani Mehr and et al showed the effect of 8 sessions of cognitive–behavioral‐based mindfulness program on stress and depression in pregnant mothers (Yazdanimehr, Omidi, Sadat, & Akbari, ). The results of another 6‐session counseling showed anxiety reduction in the intervention and control group, but the anxiety reduction was reported more in the intervention group.…”

Objective:The aim of the study was to assess the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) on anxiety and self-efficacy in coping with childbirth. Material and Methods:This randomized controlled trial was conducted on 70 pregnant women in Abyek city of Qazvin province in Iran. The convenient sampling method was recruited. Samples were assigned to control and intervention groups using random blocks. In addition to routine care, individuals in the intervention group received 6 MBSR training sessions. The data gathering questionnaire in this study included mindfulness, Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire, and self-efficacy in coping with childbirth questionnaire. Results:There was no statistically significant difference between the demographic characteristics in the control and intervention groups. The results of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures indicated the effect of time on the change in the total score of anxiety in the intervention group (p = .001). There was a significant difference between the two groups (p = .001). Also, the results of ANOVA with repeated measures showed that time had no impact on the score of self-efficacy in delivery coping (p = 0/1) and that there was no significant difference between the two groups in this respect (p = .6). Conclusion:The result of this study showed that mindfulness reduces anxiety of pregnant mothers, and it is suggested that mindfulness programs be educated for healthcare providers and pregnant mothers to reduce maternal anxiety and improve pregnancy outcomes and delivery.
