Application of "Internet +" hospital-community-family trinity linkage management model in maternal perinatal depression

Abstract

BackgroundPerinatal depression seriously affects the physical and mental health of pregnant women， such as affecting their role transition， identity， and family relationships， etc. In severe case， it can even lead to suicidal behavior， causing a heavy burden on pregnant women and their families. A hierarchical management model centered on pregnant women， involving collaboration of families， communities， and hospitals， facilitates comprehensive and dynamic management of perinatal depression.ObjectiveTo evaluate the application effect of "Internet +" hospital-community-family trinity linkage management model on perinatal depression in pregnant women， in order to provide a reference for the clinical intervention.Methods80 pregnant women who established medical records from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Mianyang Third People's Hospital from January to December 2022， with Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale （EPDS） score>9， were selected as the research objects. According to the random number table method， they were divided into a study group and a control group， each group consisting of 40 cases. Both groups received routine nursing intervention in the pregnant women's school of obstetrics and gynecology outpatient department before delivery， and in the study room of the department of obstetrics and gynecology after being admitted to the hospital for delivery. After discharge， they received routine follow-up until 42 days postpartum. The study group received the "Internet +" hospital-community-family ternary linkage management on the basis. EPDS， Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）， Generic Quality of Life Inventory （GQOLI-74） and Nursing Satisfaction questionnaire were assessed before intervention and 42 days postpartum.ResultsAfter intervention， the EPDS score and PSQI score of the study group were lower than those of the control group （F=42.823， 60.453， P<0.05）， GQOLI-74 score and nursing satisfaction were higher than those of the control group （F=198.902， χ2=5.165， P<0.05） .Conclusion"Internet +" hospital-community-family trinity linkage management model may help to improve the severity of perinatal depression symptoms， improve the quality of sleep and life， and increase the satisfaction of pregnant women.［Funded by Mianyang Health Scientific Research Commission Project （number， 202134）］
