OBJECTIVES
• Identify risks of untreated maternal
depression on the fetal and/or infant,
child, family relationships.
• Describe treatment options for
perinatal depression and postpartum
psychosis.
• List three risks to consider when
treating pregnant and lactating women
with psychotropic medications.
50 % of pregnancies are
UNPLANNED
“Are you sexually active?”
“What are using for birth control?”
“Are you considering a pregnancy
in the upcoming year?”
EFFECTS OF UNTREATED MATERNAL DEPRESSION
RISKS TO
PREGNANCY AND FETUS
RISKS TO
MOM, INFANT, CHILD, FAMILY
• Increased irritability/inconsolability of newborn
• Disturbed maternal-infant attachment
• Damaged stress responses
• Failure to thrive
• Behavior issues/cognitive delays
• Stress on couples’ relationship –
• (PPD risks to partners, as well)
• Suicide/infanticide
• Poor adherence to routine prenatal care
• Poor nutrition/self care
• Substance use
• Increased fetal cortisol
• Preeclampsia
• Preterm labor
• Low birth weight
“________” COMES
NATURALLY .
Fill in with any of the following childbearing tasks…
Nearly double the risk of perinatal complications to that of general population:
• higher rate of operative delivery, NICU admission, neonatal morbidity
High potency 1st generation antipsychotics preferred to low potency
2nd generation antipsychotics less studied
• Overall no increased risk of congenital anomalies
• Considerations: metabolic effects, blood dyscrasias, movement disorders
KEY POINTS:
PHARMACOLOGICAL TREATMENT OF PERINATAL WOMEN
Avoid discontinuing
meds that provide
psychiatric stability
1
Previously effective
meds
Minimal effective dose
Symptom remission as
the goal
2
Carefully substitute
less teratogenic agents
if necessary
3
Dose requirements
may be higher in the
second half of
pregnancy
Adjust accordingly
4
INTEGRATIVE CARE MODELS addresses barriers related to
Stigma
Fear of losing parental rights
Lack of obstetric provider training in clinical aspects of
depression care and communication skills
Lack of standardized processes for
depression care
Lack of specialized reproductive psych
providers
Lack of specialized referral networks
Inadequate capacity for follow-up and care
coordination
