Perinatal and Postpartum Mood Disorders
Springer Publishing Co Inc (Verlag)
978-0-8261-0116-7 (ISBN)
Over the past three years, pregnancy related mood disorders have become the focus of healthcare advocates and legislators alike with subsequent reflection in nationwide media. Statistics on the prevalence of perinatal mood disorders suggest that up to 20 per cent of women experience diagnosable pregnancy related mood disorders. Coupled with an increasing knowledge base about the dire consequences of untreated maternal depression, has propelled this issue to the fore of national public health priorities. This book offers a major resource for healthcare professionals, mental health professionals, and medical, nursing, psychology, and social work students who will be confronting this problem in their practices. The contributions, by renowned experts, fill a glaring gap in the knowledge professionals need in order to successfully manage maternal mental health.
