Objective

To investigate incidence and social factors of depression in perinatal pregnant women under corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.

Methods

A total of 71 pregnant women were randomly selected according to their medical card number from April 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020 in the obstetric department outpatient and inpatient of a grade A class 3 hospital in Lanzhou during the COVID-19 outbreak. Then, a total of 71 pregnant women who were treated in the obstetrics department outpatient and inpatient of the same hospital during the normalized COVID-19 pandemic period from April 1 to August 31, 2021 were selected into this study. According to the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), pregnant women were divided into depression group (n=64, EPDS score≥9) and non-depression group (n=78, EPDS score<9). The general information of the subjects was investigated by filling in the electronic questionnaire or manually filling in the paper version of the questionnaire, and then the EPDS and Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) were used to investigate their social support information. Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of depression in perinatal pregnant women. The procedures followed in this study were in accordance with the newly revised World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki in 2013, and informed consent for clinical study was signed with all subjects.

Results

① Among 142 pregnant women, the detection rate of depression was 45.1% (64/142). There were significant differences in education level and growth environment between two groups (P<0.05). ② The scores of each dimension of SSRS in two groups showed that the score of support utilization of depression group was lower than that of the non-depression group [(6.6±1.2) scores vs (7.8±1.6) scores], and the difference was statistically significant (t=4.72, P<0.001). ③ Among the social related factors of pregnant women in two groups, there were statistically significant differences in the composition ratio of the total score of the SSRS and the support degree of community medical service center (χ2=12.26, 11.56; P=0.002, 0.009). ④ The results of multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that education level, growth environment and the total score of SSRS were the influencing factors of perinatal pregnant depression. Among them, growing up in rural areas (OR=2.397, 95%CI: 1.012-5.675, P=0.047) and lower education level (high school and technical secondary school) (OR=3.929, 95%CI: 1.046-14.762, P=0.043) were independent risk factors. In addition, the total score of SSRS was 30-39 (OR=0.106, 95%CI: 0.024-0.472, P=0.003) was an independent protective factor for perinatal pregnant women. ⑤ The most desired support and help for perinatal pregnant women in two groups was " economy" .

Conclusions

Under the circumstance of COVID-19 pandemic, it may be helpful to regulate the bad mood of pregnant women. For perinatal pregnant women, help and support from community health centers are still lacking. Timely screening and intervention are necessary to prevent the occurrence of depression in perinatal pregnant women. Due to the increasing cost of childbearing, there is an urgent need for economic support during perinatal period.
