Anxiety and depression during the antenatal period is a growing problem with major effects on the mother, the developing fetus, and the neonate.
To assess the prevalence of anxiety and depression during pregnancy in women attending the hospital for antenatal care and assess the associated factors.
This is a prospective cohort study conducted in the University Hospital of Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University. Anxiety was evaluated using State Trait Anxiety Inventory. Depression was assessed using Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS).
Complete data were available for 575 women. The mean EPDS score was 10.5 (SD 5.5). The prevalence of depression was 26.8%. The mean state-anxiety score was 38.4 (SD 11.4) and mean trait-anxiety score was 38.2 (SD 9.5). The prevalence of anxiety using state-anxiety scale was 23.6%, while using the trait scale it was 23.9%. The risk is higher among unemployed women with history of miscarriage and unplanned pregnancy.
Anxiety and depression are common during pregnancy.

评估在医院接受产前护理的孕妇中焦虑和抑郁的患病率，并评估相关因素。
这是一项在伊玛目阿卜杜勒拉赫曼·本·费萨尔大学医院进行的前瞻性队列研究。使用状态特质焦虑量表评估焦虑。使用爱丁堡产后抑郁量表（EPDS）评估抑郁。
575名女性有完整数据。EPDS平均得分为10.5（标准差5.5）。抑郁患病率为26.8%。状态焦虑平均得分为38.4（标准差11.4），特质焦虑平均得分为38.2（标准差9.5）。使用状态焦虑量表时焦虑患病率为23.6%，使用特质量表时为23.9%。有流产史和意外怀孕的失业女性风险更高。
