İlk kez baba olanlarda doğum sonu depresyon ve psikososyal belirleyicileri

Amaç: Bu araştırma ilk kez baba olanlarda doğum sonu depresyon ve psikososyal belirleyicilerini saptamak amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma ilişkisel tanımlayıcı tipte yapıldı. Araştırmanın örneklemini, Türkiye’nin doğusunda bulunan bir ilin merkez ilçelerine bağlı iki farklı Aile Sağlığı Merkezine kayıtlı 3-6 aylık bebeği olan 250 baba oluşturdu. Veriler Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Edinburg Postpartum Depresyon Skalası (EPDS), Sürekli Kaygı Ölçeği ve Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği ile toplandı. Doğum sonu depresyonun belirleyicilerini incelemek için çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Araştırmada babaların %18.8’inde (n=42) doğum sonu depresyon riski olduğu belirlendi (EPDS≥12). Babalarda doğum sonu depresyon ile sürekli kaygı arasında pozitif yönde, depresyon ile sosyal destek ve sosyal destek alt boyutları (aile, arkadaş ve özel insan) arasında negatif yönde anlamlı ilişki olduğu belirlendi. Regresyon analizi sürekli kaygının, sosyal desteğin ve aile tarafından verilen sosyal desteğin babalarda doğum sonu depresyonun önemli belirleyicileri olduğunu gösterdi. Sonuç: Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular sonucunda yüksek kaygı düzeyinin, yetersiz sosyal desteğin ve yetersiz aile desteğinin doğum sonu dönemdeki babalarda depresyonun önemli belirleyicileri olduğunu göstermektedir. 3-6 aylık bebeği olan babalarda depresyon riskini azaltmak için kaygılarının giderilmesi ve sosyal desteklerinin artırılması yardımcı olabilir.

Postpartum depression and its psychosocial determinants in first-time fathers

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine postpartum depression and psychosocial determinants in fathers for the first time. Materials and Methods: The research was conducted in relational descriptive type. The study sample, a province in eastern Turkey, located in the central district connected to two different Family Health Center registered in the postpartum period (3-6 months), which has created 250 father. The data were collected with a Personal Information Form, Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), Trait Anxiety Scale, and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to examine the predictors of postpartum depression. Results: In the study, it was determined that 18.8% (n = 42) of fathers had a risk of postpartum depression (EPDS≥12). There was a positive correlation between postpartum depression and trait anxiety in fathers, and a negative significant relationship between depression and social support and social support sub-dimensions (family, friends, and private person). Regression analysis showed that trait anxiety, social support, and family social support were important determinants of postpartum depression in fathers. Conclusion: Findings show that high anxiety level, insufficient social support and insufficient family support are important determinants of depression in postpartum fathers. To reduce the risk of depression in postpartum fathers, relieving their anxiety and increasing their social support may help.
