| Core Tip |
This study investigated the prevalence, risk factors, and prenatal screening predictors of postpartum depression (PPD) in 376 women at 6 weeks post-partum. The prevalence of PPD according to the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was 15.7%. Multivariate analysis revealed previous depression or anxiety, marital discord, insufficient social support, pregnancy complications, poor sleep quality, and economic pressure as key independent predictors. An EPDS score ≥ 9 in late pregnancy demonstrated good predictive value. Early identification of high-risk mothers and targeted prenatal interventions may reduce the incidence of PPD and improve maternal-infant health outcomes. |
