Sažetak
Peripartum depression (PPD) has been recognised as a significant public health problem, and has been widely studied. Nonetheless, study findings and clinical guidelines for PPD treatment differ among countries, and the condition is still underdiagnosed and underrated, suggesting the importance of a global understanding of PPD. The Riseup-PPD COST Action aims to establish a Pan- European and multidisciplinary network of researchers dedicated to the global understanding of PPD. This presentation will describe the first Action step, a consensus report comprised of a comprehensive narrative synthesis of the literature on PPD diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cost-effectiveness of its management and a critical overview of the current issues and questions that need to be addressed within the topic of PPD. Methods: A literature search was performed to identify relevant publications in the field of PPD, using various databases (e.g., Medline, PsychInfo) and a combination of broad search terms, including peripartum depression, diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cost-effectiveness. A representative sample of the existent literature was summarized in the form of a narrative synthesis. Results: Emerging issues include various challenges regarding: definition and timing of PPD ; heterogeneity in severity, timing of onset and assessment tools ; comparative effectiveness of preventive and treatment interventions ; help seeking for PPD ; improving health professional's awareness of PPD ; and cost-effectiveness of PPD management. Conclusion: The Riseup-PPD network will deal with these challenges through four lines of action ; (1)provide an updated and comprehensive synthesis of existing knowledge that can contribute to inform clinical recommendations and guidelines for PPD management ; (2)clarify inconsistent findings concerning diagnosis, prevention and treatment of PPD ; (3) develop new lines of research in the field of PPD ; and (4)develop international recommendation for PPD diagnosis, prevention and treatment. Ultimately these actions will raise awareness regarding PPD and play a key-role in influencing maternal mental health policymaking at global and local levels.
