Importance of Midwifery Care in the Prevention of Postpartum Depression

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Introduction: The article focuses on the importance of midwife care for women in the puerperium period for the prevention of postpartum depression. This care is mostly preventive; therefore, education occupies an important place. Using appropriate education and preventive strategies, many complications or problems, such as postpartum depression, can be minimized or recognized in time. Methodology: The research method was a controlled nursing experiment. The essence was to compare two different groups and find out to what extent the care of a midwife contributes to the prevention of postpartum depression. The experimental group consisted of 100 women with the care of a midwife in the puerperium period, where three visits took place during the puerperium period, throughout which the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale EPDS was used to assess mental health. The control group consisted of 100 women without the care of a midwife in the puerperium period. A questionnaire was sent to these women at the end of the sixth week, along with an EPDS scale. Results: A statistically significant correlation was found between the risk of postpartum depression and problems with neonatal care (p = 0.016). There was also a statistically significant difference in the incidence of problems with newborn care according to the presence of a midwife (p = 0.005) and midwifery care in the area of breastfeeding (p = 0.049). The distribution of the results of the EPDS scale did not differ statistically significantly (p = 0.775) depending on the care of a midwife. Conclusion: The results showed that the care of a midwife leads to the prevention of health complications in women in the puerperium period. The care of a midwife does not lead to the identification of postpartum depression more often, but symptoms are recognized earlier, and treatment is started. A midwife&apos;s care can also reduce the predisposition to postpartum depression. Women attended to by a midwife showed fewer problems with breastfeeding or newborn care, which are two of the predictors of postpartum depression risks.
