To assess the prevalence of and risk factors for postpartum depression among Pakistani women in Norway.
A total of 207 pregnant Pakistani women living in Norway participated in a questionnaire study. The author interviewed the women face to face during pregnancy and 6 to 12 weeks after delivery. The Edinburgh postnatal depression scale was used to identify the risk cases.
Only 7.6% of the immigrant Pakistani women were depressed postpartum. High scores on the life event scale, a history of prior depression, single marital status, a poor relationship to one's partner and an age of 30 years or more were found to be significant risk factors for postpartum depression.
The prevalence of postpartum depression among immigrant Pakistani women seems to be low compared with the prevalence reported in immigrant populations elsewhere, it was however only slightly lower than the study of ethnic Norwegians (8.9%). The risk factors were similar to results from international reports; moreover, there were few cultural differences in risk factors between ethnic Norwegian and Pakistani immigrants.
评估挪威的巴基斯坦女性产后抑郁症的患病率及风险因素。
共有207名居住在挪威的巴基斯坦孕妇参与了一项问卷调查研究。作者在孕期及产后6至12周对这些女性进行了面对面访谈。采用爱丁堡产后抑郁量表来识别风险病例。
仅有7.6%的巴基斯坦移民女性产后抑郁。生活事件量表得分高、既往有抑郁症病史、单身婚姻状况、与伴侣关系不佳以及年龄在30岁及以上被发现是产后抑郁症的显著风险因素。
与其他地方移民人群报告的患病率相比，巴基斯坦移民女性产后抑郁症的患病率似乎较低，不过仅略低于对挪威族裔的研究（8.9%）。风险因素与国际报告的结果相似；此外，挪威族裔和巴基斯坦移民在风险因素方面几乎没有文化差异。
