Postpartum depression (PPD) and postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder (PP-PTSD) are prevalent among women. However, the specific symptoms that serve as bridges remain unknown between these two disorders. The objective of this study is to establish a symptom network model for PPD and PP-PTSD and investigate the bridge symptoms and their interrelationships in cases of comorbid PPD and PP-PTSD. A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Wuhan from March 2024 to November 2024. PPD was evaluated using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, and PP-PTSD was measured using the Chinese version of the Perinatal PTSD Questionnaire. The "Postpartum Depression-Postpartum Post-traumatic Stress Disorder" network model was constructed and analyzed using R software version 4.2.3. Healthcare professionals should focus on the severe bridge symptoms reported by postpartum women. To enhance awareness and alleviate anxiety levels, it is advisable to implement positive psychological interventions.
产后抑郁症(PPD)和产后创伤后应激障碍(PP-PTSD)在女性中很普遍。然而,这两种疾病之间作为桥梁的具体症状尚不清楚。本研究的目的是建立PPD和PP-PTSD的症状网络模型,并调查PPD和PP-PTSD共病情况下的桥梁症状及其相互关系。2024年3月至2024年11月在武汉一家三级医院进行了一项横断面研究。使用爱丁堡产后抑郁量表评估PPD,使用中文版围产期创伤后应激障碍问卷测量PP-PTSD。使用R软件4.2.3版本构建并分析了“产后抑郁症-产后创伤后应激障碍”网络模型。医疗保健专业人员应关注产后女性报告的严重桥梁症状。为了提高认识并缓解焦虑水平,建议实施积极的心理干预措施。
