The COVID-19 pandemic has changed individuals and families, causing adverse psychological effects, especially in young adults, women, and parents. This study aimed to verify the prevalence of current major depressive episode (CMDE) in mothers of preschoolers (up to five years old) and its associated stressors during the COVID-19 pandemic in a municipality in the Southern Brazil. This is a cross-sectional, population-based study with mothers. All mothers were interviewed by telephone call during the COVID-19 pandemic. We used the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I. Plus) to assess the presence of CMDE. Statistical analysis was conducted using the chi-square test and a multivariate logistic regression. We evaluated 666 mothers. The prevalence of CMDE was 12.3%. Mothers with financial losses had 2.1 (95%CI: 1.3-3.4) more odds of presenting CMDE than those financially stable. We observed that financial losses were determinant for the higher prevalence of depression in mothers.
新冠疫情改变了个人和家庭，造成了不良心理影响，尤其是在年轻人、女性和父母当中。本研究旨在核实巴西南部某城市新冠疫情期间学龄前儿童（五岁及以下）母亲中当前重度抑郁发作（CMDE）的患病率及其相关压力源。这是一项针对母亲的基于人群的横断面研究。在新冠疫情期间，所有母亲均通过电话接受访谈。我们使用迷你国际神经精神访谈（M.I.N.I. Plus）来评估CMDE的存在情况。使用卡方检验和多变量逻辑回归进行统计分析。我们评估了666名母亲。CMDE的患病率为12.3%。遭受经济损失的母亲出现CMDE的几率比经济稳定的母亲高2.1倍（95%置信区间：1.3 - 3.4）。我们观察到，经济损失是母亲中抑郁症患病率较高的决定性因素。
