To compare the postpartum psychopathological symptoms of women who gave birth before the pandemic with those who gave birth during the pandemic.
A total of 212 women participated in the study, of which 96 gave birth before the pandemic and 116 during the pandemic. Psychopathological symptoms, postpartum depression, perceived stress, and resilience were evaluated.
Women who gave birth during the pandemic had higher scores on somatization, obsessions and compulsions, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, and psychoticism. In addition, perceived stress was the common predictor of an increase in these symptoms.
Postpartum is a complicated period in a woman's life. Many psychological adaptations take place and women may be subject to psychological alterations during this period. In addition, women who gave birth during the COVID-19 crisis may show greater psychological vulnerability, due to the specific situation experienced during the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic may have played a role in the increase in psychopathological symptoms after childbirth. Detecting possible symptoms postpartum plays a crucial role, because it allows intervening and preventing the development of psychopathologies.
比较疫情前和疫情期间分娩的女性产后心理病理症状。
共有 212 名女性参与了这项研究,其中 96 名在疫情前分娩,116 名在疫情期间分娩。评估了心理病理症状、产后抑郁、感知压力和韧性。
在疫情期间分娩的女性在躯体化、强迫观念和行为、人际关系敏感、抑郁、焦虑、敌意、恐怖症和精神病性方面得分更高。此外,感知压力是这些症状增加的共同预测因素。
产后是女性生命中的一个复杂时期。在此期间,女性会进行许多心理适应,可能会经历心理改变。此外,在 COVID-19 危机期间分娩的女性可能表现出更大的心理脆弱性,这是由于在疫情期间经历的特殊情况。COVID-19 大流行可能在产后心理病理症状的增加中发挥了作用。在产后检测可能出现的症状起着至关重要的作用,因为它可以进行干预并预防精神病理的发展。
