Maternal Depression Screening
Maternal Depression Screening
Maternal depression affects up to 18% of mothers during the first year postpartum, yet the condition is likely to go unrecognized and untreated by a mother's own health care provider who may see her less frequently than the pediatrician. At well-child visits, the pediatric provider has an opportunity to identify signs of maternal depression and intervene through routine screening. |
