Traumatic childbirth is an international public health problem because it is supposed that currently up to 45% of new mothers have reported such an experience. International rates of PTSD due to birth trauma range between 1.5 and 9 percent of all births. Birth trauma is defined as an event occurring during the labour and delivery process that involves actual or threatened serious injury or death of the mother or her infant. A traumatic event or situation creates psychological trauma when it overwhelms the individual's ability to cope, and leaves that person fearing death, annihilation, mutilation, or psychosis. The individual may feel emotionally, cognitively, and physically overwhelmed. The aim of this article is to present a review of published data for childbirth trauma over various periods of time, as well as in different regions of the world. Studies were identified through a comprehensive search of PubMed, PsycInfo, ProQuest and PILOTS (Published International Literature of Traumatic Stress) over the last 20 years. More than 8000 articles were found. In this article we present and discuss some important findings.
创伤性分娩是一个国际公共卫生问题，因为据推测，目前多达 45%的新妈妈有过这种经历。国际上因分娩创伤而导致 PTSD 的比例在所有分娩中的比例为 1.5%至 9%之间。分娩创伤被定义为在分娩过程中发生的事件，涉及母亲或她的婴儿实际或威胁严重的伤害或死亡。当一个事件或情况超出个人的应对能力，并使那个人感到害怕死亡、毁灭、肢解或精神病时，就会造成心理创伤。个人可能会感到情绪、认知和身体上的崩溃。本文的目的是回顾过去不同时期以及世界不同地区发表的关于分娩创伤的数据。通过对过去 20 年来 PubMed、PsycInfo、ProQuest 和 PILOTS（创伤性应激国际文献）的全面搜索，确定了研究。共找到 8000 多篇文章。在本文中，我们提出并讨论了一些重要的发现。
