Postpartum blues is a major risk factor for the incidence of postpartum depression and disruption of breastfeeding. This semi-experimental study investigated the effect of breastfeeding training based on the BASNEF model on severity of postpartum blues in 2012. Four educational sessions based on the BASNEF model were held separately for pregnant women and their mothers, mothers-in-law and spouses. The control group received routine care at the clinic. After delivery, women's knowledge of and attitude towards postpartum blues were evaluated using the Zung Self- Rating Depression Scale. There were significant differences between the groups regarding mean scores of knowledge, mothers' evaluation of behaviour outcomes, attitude, and enabling factors. Also, the mean score for postpartum blues was significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the control group. In conclusion, training based on the BASNEF model had a positive effect on maternal knowledge and attitude and, consequently, the intensity of postpartum blues. Further studies are required to determine the reliability and effectiveness of this method.
产后忧郁是产后抑郁症和母乳喂养中断的一个主要风险因素。这项半实验性研究于 2012 年调查了基于 BASNEF 模式的母乳喂养培训对产后忧郁严重程度的影响。针对孕妇及其母亲、婆婆和配偶分别进行了 4 次基于 BASNEF 模式的教育课程。对照组在诊所接受常规护理。分娩后，使用 Zung 自评抑郁量表评估妇女对产后忧郁的知识和态度。两组在知识、母亲对行为结果的评价、态度和促成因素的平均得分方面存在显著差异。此外，干预组的产后忧郁平均得分明显低于对照组。总之，基于 BASNEF 模式的培训对母亲的知识和态度产生了积极影响，从而降低了产后忧郁的强度。需要进一步的研究来确定这种方法的可靠性和有效性。
