  22. Paternal Prenatal and Postpartum Depression • “Overall meta-analytic rate of paternal depression between first trimester and 1 year postpartum . . . suggests paternal prenatal and postpartum depression represents significant public health concern," state authors of article published in May 19, 2010, issue of JAMA • Meta-analysis presents findings of depression in expecting and new fathers to: • (1) estimate paternal depression between first trimester and 1 year postpartum; • (2) describe differences across time period • (3) examine association between paternal and maternal depression • (4) estimate prevalence of maternal prenatal and postpartum depression identified in paternal depression studies • (5) identify how published rates of paternal depression affected by methodological factors such as measurement method, study location, and sample risk status • Studies for meta-analysis drawn from relevant reviews; a search of MEDLINE, PsychINFO, Dissertation Abstracts International, EMBASE, and Google Scholar; and reference lists of retrieved articles • Initial analysis included all journal articles, dissertations, and book chapters produced between January 1980 and October 2009 that assessed paternal depression during pregnancy, first postpartum year, or both

  23. Paternal Prenatal and PostpartumDepression (cont.) • Studies that reported an estimated # of cases among identified fathers selected • Primary outcome was point prevalence rate of paternal depression • Secondary outcomes included rates of depression in female partners and correlations between paternal and maternal depressive symptoms • Research also examined following determinants of primary and secondary outcomes: period of measurement, risk status of sample, and case identification method (interview vs. rating scale) • Study location also coded • The authors found that • Overall rate of paternal depression between 1st trimester and 1 year pp was 10.4% (compared with recent national data on base rates of depression in men at 4.8%) • Considerable variability between different time periods, with 3- to 6-month pp showing highest rate of paternal depression and first 3 pp months showing lowest rate • U.S. studies reported average rate of paternal depression at 14.1% and international studies reported average rate of 8.2% • Interview-based case definition methods associated with lower overall prevalence estimates • Overall estimate of maternal-paternal depressive symptom correlation was significant

  24. Paternal Prenatal and PostpartumDepression (cont.) • “Observation that expecting and new fathers disproportionately experience depression suggests that more efforts should be made to improve screening and referral," conclude authors. “Correlation between paternal and maternal depression also suggests . . . that prevention and intervention efforts for depression in parents might be focused on couple and family rather than individual," they add • Paulson JF, Bazemore SD. 2010. Prenatal and postpartum depression in fathers and its association with maternal depression: A meta-analysis. JAMA, The Journal of the American Medical Association 303(19):1961-1969.
