The aim of this paper was to assess quality of life, possible presence of depressive symptomatology and their possible relationship during normal and high-risk pregnancy.
A total of 100 women (50 experiencing a normal pregnancy and 50 experiencing a high-risk pregnancy) were studied. They completed the World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL) to assess the quality of life and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) to assess the level of depressive symptomatology. The mean of the scores obtained in both the entire sample and the 2 subgroups was calculated, and then the results obtained were compared.
The study shows that the women with normal pregnancy have a good perception of their quality of life, instead women with high-risk pregnancy do not think so. They consider it more unfavourable then the others. It also emerged, that the 12% of our sample (all women with high-risk pregnancy) shows a significant level of depressive symptomatology.
It is very important to identify early women at risk of depressive symptoms or mental disorders, so that it is possible to offer an adequate psychological support during pregnancy, to prevent the worsening of the symptoms or the development of a real mental disorder in the postnatal period.
本文旨在评估正常妊娠和高危妊娠期间的生活质量、抑郁症状的可能存在情况及其可能的关系。
共研究了100名女性（50名正常妊娠女性和50名高危妊娠女性）。她们完成了世界卫生组织生活质量量表（WHOQOL）以评估生活质量，并完成了贝克抑郁量表（BDI）以评估抑郁症状水平。计算了整个样本以及两个亚组所得分数的平均值，然后对所得结果进行比较。
研究表明，正常妊娠女性对其生活质量有良好的认知，而高危妊娠女性则不然。她们认为其生活质量比其他人更差。此外，我们样本中的12%（所有高危妊娠女性）表现出显著水平的抑郁症状。
尽早识别有抑郁症状或精神障碍风险的女性非常重要，这样才能在孕期提供充分的心理支持，以防止症状恶化或产后出现真正的精神障碍。
