ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
We aimed to (1) identify the prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) symptoms using the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2) and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), and (2) analyze the relationship between PPD symptoms and social determinants of health (SDoH).METHOD:
We obtained data from 1327 infant/mother dyads at 1 and 6-month well-child checks. We used Chi-square and T-tests to compare social determinants between PPD screening groups and logistical regression to construct predictive models for PPD.RESULTS:
The prevalence of positive PPD screens was 5-7%, but only 1.85% screened positive at both periods. Although the EPDS and PHQ-2 were correlated (Pearson 0.66), the PHQ-2 missed 65% of those identified by the EPDS. Positive PPD screens were associated with greater SDoH concerns.DISCUSSION:
Our study highlights the importance of repeated PPD screening. The EPDS detected more mothers at risk than the PHQ-2. Multiple SDoH were associated with PPD symptoms.
