Texto completoThe aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of postnatal depression among adolescent mothers. The study was going to achieve this through a comparative approach. Two groups of adolescent mothers were compared. One group’s participants were still in relationships with their partners (child’s biological father), and the other group consisted of single adolescent partners without the child’s biological father, or a romantic partner. The research study was based in the Umhlathuze region, in two local townships, namely, Enseleni and Esikhawini Townships. A total of 100 adolescent mothers from two health care facilities were sampled for the current research study. A quantitative research methodology was adopted, as the study intended to compare nominal variables. A self-selection sampling method was utilised, and a validated tool called the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was used to collect data. Furthermore, the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was utilised for the purposes of data analysis. The study revealed that there was no evidence of an association between partner availability and postnatal depression among adolescent mothers. However, the limitations of the current research study were acknowledged. The study recommends that a more longitudinal study be conducted, with a closer look at the quality of romantic relations among adolescent couples, and their impact on postnatal health of both adolescent mothers and fathers.

Introduction -- Parenting in adolescent depression: the mediating role of self-worth in a prospective test -- Neuroticism, life events and negative thoughts in the development of depression in adolescent girls -- A cognitive diathesis-stress generation model of early adolescent depression -- General discussion.
This research examined the longitudinal development of depressive symptoms among young adolescents (mean age 12 years). The first model examined depressive symptoms across 6 months in 315 young adolescents and their mothers, considering the mediation of perceived parenting and its influence on adolescent self-worth. Although parent-reported parental depression was not linked with child-reported perceived parenting, the child's perception of his or her mother as rejecting or less caring was associated with a lower sense of self-worth, which in turn predicted depressive symptoms 6 months later, controlling for initial depression. In the second model, tested across 12 months with 896 young adolescent girls, neuroticism served as a distal vulnerability for depression, conferring a risk of experiencing dependent stressors and negative automatic thoughts which fully mediated the effect of neuroticism on later depression. Initial depressive symptoms also followed this meditational pathway, in a possible maintenance and risk pathway for adolescent depression. Unexpectedly, independent stressors were also predicted by initial depressive symptoms, suggesting possible shared method or genuine environmental factors. Finally, it was proposed that young adolescents at risk of depression will not only display cognitive vulnerabilities contributing to increased depressive symptoms following stressors (cognitive diathesis-stress theory), but also be more likely to experience stressors at least partly dependent on their own behaviour (stress-generation theory). This model was supported with a large (N=756) sample of young adolescents across 6 months, controlling for initial depression. Taken together, this thesis extends previous theories about the aetiology of depression, providing evidence from family, personality and cognitive risk factors to better explain the development of depressive symptoms in early adolescence, with significant implications for intervention and treatment.

Texto completoPurpose: The purpose of this DNP quality improvement project was to increase primary care provider knowledge about indications for adolescent depression screening.
Background: Approximately 13.3% of adolescents experienced depression in the past year. In Oklahoma alone, rates are increasing, with depression totaling 60% of all mental health illness among adolescents. Primary care providers see approximately 75% of adolescents; however, mental health conditions are missed 84% of the time. Current clinical guidelines recommend screening for adolescent depression during wellness visits or when risk factors are present.
Methods: The providers of interest were nurse practitioners, physicians, and physician assistants providing primary care to children between the ages of 12 and 17 in a private pediatric practice group consisting of three clinics. The Model for Improvement guided the process of developing, implementing, and evaluating an educational intervention through use of a pre-test/post-test quantitative design. An email invited participants to complete an anonymous pre-test survey to evaluate knowledge and beliefs surrounding adolescent depression, then view an educational presentation on adolescent depression and screening guidelines, then complete a post-survey to evaluate any changes in knowledge and intention to screen. Results were shared with clinic representatives to help refine the education for future testing cycles and other clinic sites.
Results: Data collection took place over one week. Five providers completed both the pre-test and post-test surveys. Provider knowledge scores significantly increased 29% after participating in the education and self-reported knowledge on screening increased.
Conclusions: DNP quality improvement projects like this help develop strategies to increase best practices, leading to improved patient outcomes. Nurse-led improvement programs like this contribute to healthcare literature and the advancement of the nursing profession by developing patient-centered interventions applicable to a wide variety of providers. Results may be used to develop strategies to increase and align provider practices with best standards to help promote early identification and treatment of adolescents with depression.

Texto completoThe purpose of this study was to examine various social and ecological factors that affect adolescents' nervousness and/or depression. Secondary data from the 2011- 2012 California Health Institute Survey were used to examine these factors. Chi-Square analyses were utilized to test if relationships existed between the variables in the data. This study examined race, poverty level, immigration status, physical well-being, safety of environment, and the receipt of psychological/emotional counseling as factors for influencing feelings of nervousness and/or depression among adolescents. Results indicated that adolescents feeling nervous were affected by race, poverty level, environmental safety, and the receipt of psychological/emotional counseling. Feeling nervous did not have a significant association with physical well-being in this study. Furthermore, adolescent depression was affected by race, poverty level, physical well-being, environmental safety, and the receipt of psychological/emotional counseling. Immigration status was not found to be associated with affecting adolescent nervousness or depression. Further research is suggested.

Texto completoPostpartum depression is a mental disorder of high prevalence that arises in the first weeks after childbirth and causes emotional, cognitive, behavioral and physical changes. Adolescent mothers present an increased risk for postpartum depression. Studies show that the practice of breastfeeding does not occur effectively in cases where the mother presents emotional changes. In view of the above, we aimed to understand which are the social representations regarding breastfeeding, in the perspective of adolescent mothers with symptoms of postpartum depression. This is a qualitative research conducted with 14 women, mothers of children up to one year of age and users of a public health service in Ribeirão Preto - SP. The first phase consisted in the application of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale for screening adolescent mothers with symptoms of depression in the puerperal period. Mothers who achieved a score of 12 or more were invited to proceed participating in the research. For those who accepted to be included, socio demographic questionnaires were applied and, semi- structured interviews were conducted and recorded in a participant\'s choice location and then, fully transcribed. For the data analysis, we used the Interpretation of the Meaning Method, in accordance with the social representations in a socio anthropological approach. Three thematic categories emerged: 1) \"Being a mother in adolescence with symptoms of postpartum depression\"; 2) \"Breastfeeding in adolescence with symptoms of postpartum depression\"; 3) \"The network support: the breastfeeding and I.\" Pregnancy is considered undesirable in the context investigated, as it is seen as an impediment to give continuity to life. And this reflects negatively on breastfeeding, since there are difficulties to play maternal roles at this moment of life. Regarding breastfeeding, we observed that adolescent mother\'s knowledge is restricted to nutritional and immunological aspects, and the relational and building link aspects of breastfeeding practice are not considered. This thought is justified when observed how the participants feel in their cultural context, in which they deal with breastfeeding as a simple infant feeding practice. There is the idea that breast milk is weak, and the bottle is seen as an allied, since, as well as providing baby satiety feeling for longer, still prevents him to cry and bother, especially at night. Even during the day, the bottle avoids embarrassments when breastfeeding in public places and it can be offered by someone else. It is something that gives sense of freedom, causing the baby\'s independence from the mother. The woman has the greatest source of influence and support in her mother, while her partner remains distant to the reality of breastfeeding and the health professional provides specific guidelines in which disregards the life contexts in which the adolescents live. Internet is used in order to acquire knowledge, being considered vehicle of strong influence. Even with maternal support, the woman remains alone, struggling to talk about her real emotional situation and limitations to breastfeed. Thus, the social representations that support the breastfeeding practice, for these adolescents, bring with them the ambiguity of willing to give the best for your child - the breast milk, but also the will to be free and independent in life

Texto completoThe postpartum depression affects 10-20% of the postpartum women in the world and adolescents are at increased risk for this mental disorder. The practice of breastfeeding does not occur effectively in cases where the mother presents emotional changes. Lower rates of initiation of breastfeeding are found in adolescents, and the highest rate of early weaning. Objectives: To assess depressive symptoms in adolescents in the postpartum period and breastfeeding. Methods: An observational, descriptive and transversal study developed in four health units in the district south of the city of Ribeirão Preto / SP. The study included 72 adolescents which were, at the time of data collection, between zero and four months after delivery. The data were collected through interviews between April and October 2012. Three instruments were used, one for breastfeeding and sociodemographic caracterization and two for evaluation of mood and affective disorders. The Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) was applied to all participants and Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D), when adolescents scored higher than or equal to 12 on the EPDS, indicating the presence of depressive symptoms. Data were processed and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences, version 21. In the analysis, we used frequency distribution, Fisher\'s exact test and Chi-square. Results: The sample was characterized by adolescents with a mean age of 17.3 years in consensual union, residing with the child\'s father or family of origin, mean schooling was 8.3 years and with non-pay employment. A third had a family history of mental illness and 9.7% reported a history of emotional problems and / or addiction to alcohol / drugs. Two teenagers had gestational depression and two were diagnosed with postpartum depression and was being treated with medication. All adolescents received prenatal care, mostly primiparous and unplanned pregnancy. The skin to skin contact was made by most of them and breastfeeding first occurred in rooming-in within the first six hours after birth. At discharge, almost all were exclusively breastfeeding. The babies had a mean age of 71.3 days at the time of interview and over half of the mothers offered only breast milk for their children. Exclusive breastfeeding was practiced by 34.7%, breastfeeding for 55.6% and 9.7% had weaned their children. The EPDS obtained a mean score of 8.5 points, with 15 identified adolescents with depressive symptoms and the HAM-D, one was classified as severely depressed, six was moderately depressed and eight mildly depressed. With respect to depressive symptoms and type of breastfeeding used by teenagers, no significant association was found. Conclusion: It is important to include in postpartum care an investigation of the social, cultural and economic development of women, in order to understand the possible origin of postpartum depression. Besides including a scale, as the EPDS, for investigation of depressive symptoms and support these teenagers to maintain breastfeeding.

O suicídio representa um grande problema de saúde pública, sendo a segunda ou terceira causa de morte entre os adolescentes em muitos países. Considerando que os transtornos alimentares podem levar a um maior risco de suicídio do que qualquer outro transtorno psiquiátrico, este trabalho propôs investigar a prevalência do risco de suicídio em adolescentes com sintomas de transtornos alimentares e sintomas depressivos. Trata-se de um estudo seccional, de base populacional, quantitativo, analítico, realizado na cidade do Recife com 1.379 adolescentes, de 10 a 17 anos de idade, de ambos os sexos, estudantes de escolas públicas estaduais do Recife, Brasil. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados os instrumentos: Questionário Sociobiodemográfico; Teste de Atitudes Alimentares, Teste de Avaliação Bulímica de Edinburgh, Inventário de Depressão Infantil e o Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview – Módulo C (M.I.N.I. - versão brasileira 5.0.0). Para análise dos dados, foram construídas tabelas uni e bidimensionais com frequências absolutas e relativas, bem como calculados os valores das Odds-Ratios (OR) e seus respectivos intervalos com 95% de confiança, associados aos níveis descritivos do teste Qui-quadrado de independência de Pearson. Na análise multivariada, foi ajustado um modelo de regressão logística binária, incluindo como possíveis variáveis explicativas todas aquelas que na análise bidimensional apresentaram associação significativa ao nível inferior a 0,05. O gênero feminino predominou na amostra (65,5%), com idade média de 13,80 anos. A prevalência do risco de suicídio na população estudada foi de 29,7%, onde 6,7% já tinham história de tentativa de suicídio anterior. A prevalência de adolescentes com sintomas de transtornos alimentares (TAs) foi de 25,5%, segundo a escala EAT-26 e 3,2% (escore elevado) e 29,6% (escore médio), na subescala de sintomas BITE. A prevalência de risco de suicídio em adolescentes com sintomas de TAs, segundo as escalas EAT-26 e subescala de sintomas BITE, respectivamente, foi de: 42,7% e 56,8% (escore elevado), apresentando associação significativa. A prevalência de sintomas depressivos na população geral foi de 15,4%. Dos valores de Odds Ratio, as chances de um adolescente da população pesquisada apresentar risco de suicídio são mais elevadas se o adolescente tem idade acima de 11 anos, é do sexo feminino, tem sintomas depressivos, tem padrões alimentares anormais e sintomas de bulimia nervosa. Quanto às probabilidades do risco de suicídio estimada a partir do modelo de regressão revelou-se que a superposição de fatores agrava as chances para o suicídio, mostrando que, na presença dos dois fatores simultaneamente (sintomas de transtornos alimentares e sintomas depressivos), a chance seria de 61,9% para adolescentes com padrões alimentares anormais e 63,4% para adolescentes com sintomas de bulimia nervosa. Após a análise dos dados pode-se concluir que o risco de suicídio não se limita apenas a amostras clínicas de adolescentes com transtornos alimentares, mas pode ser detectado até mesmo em amostras comunitárias de adolescentes; e que o risco de suicídio está associado aos sintomas de transtornos alimentares, o que pode ser agravado pelos sintomas depressivos. Portanto, comportamentos alimentares inadequados devem ser investigados em adolescentes para direcionar estratégias futuras de prevenção ao suicídio nesta fase de desenvolvimento humano.
Suicide is a huge public health problem and considered to be the second or third major cause of death among adolescents in many countries. As eating disorders can lead to a greater risk of suicide than any other psychiatric disorder, the aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of the risk of suicide among adolescents with symptoms of both eating disorders and depression. A quantitative, analytical, population-based, cross-sectional study was conducted involving 1379 male and female students between 10 and 17 years of age enrolled at public schools in the city of Recife (Brazil). Data collection involved a socio-demographic questionnaire, the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), the Bulimic Investigatory Test of Edinburgh (BITE), the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) and the Brazilian version of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I. 5.0.0). Data analysis involved one-dimensional and two-dimensional tables with absolute and relative frequencies. Odd ratios (OR) and respective 95% confidence intervals were calculated based on the results of Pearson’s chi-square test for independence. In the multivariate analysis, a binary logistic regression model was adjusted, incorporating all explanatory variables that had a p-value < 0.20 in the two-dimensional analysis. The female gender predominated in the sample (65.5%). Age ranged from 10 to 17 years (mean: 13.80 ± 1.76 years; median: 14 years). The prevalence of the risk of suicide was 29.7% and 6.7% had a history of attempted suicide. The prevalence of symptoms of eating disorders was 25.5% based on the EAT-26 scale and 3.2% (high score) and 29.6% (medium score) using the BITE subscales. The prevalence of the risk of suicide among adolescents with eating disorders was 42.7% using the EAT-26 scale and 56.8% (high score) using the BITE symptoms subscale, demonstrating a significant association. The prevalence of depressive symptoms in the overall sample was 15.4%. From the ORs, the estimated probability of an adolescent being at greater risk of suicide was higher when the individual was older than 11 years of age, female, had symptoms of eating disorders and had depressive symptoms. The regression model demonstrated that the combination of symptoms of eating disorders and depressive symptoms led to a 61.9% chance of a suicide attempt using the EAT-26 and 63.4% chance using the BITE symptoms subscale. The present findings demonstrate that the risk of suicide is not restricted to clinical samples of adolescents with eating disorders, but can also be detected in community samples of adolescents. Moreover, the risk of suicide is associated with eating disorders and is aggravated by depressive symptoms. Therefore, inadequate eating behavior should be investigated in adolescents to guide future strategies aimed at preventing suicide in this phase of human development.
