abstract="BACKGROUND: The study aimed at the identification of the risk factors present during  delivery, which might be present in prophylactic programs concerning postpartum mood  disorders. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This was a retrospective comparative study. The  study material included data retrieved from the medical records of patients  hospitalized in the Teaching Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of Professor  Orłowski Hospital in Warsaw, in the years 2010-2017. The EPDS data of 604 patients  were analyzed. The study group included 75 women who obtained at least 12 points in  the EPDS and the control group was made up of 75 women who obtained no more than 5  points in the EPDS. <br><br>RESULTS: The women in whom we noted an increased risk of  developing mood disorders had blood loss >1000 mL and had a significantly longer  stage II and III of labor than the control group. Other risk factors were cesarean  section, vaginal delivery with the curettage of the uterine cavity, slightly lower  APGAR scores (0.4 pts), and lower birth weight (approximately 350 g) of the child. Women at a low risk of postpartum mood disorders more commonly underwent episiotomy  during delivery (76%). <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Increased supervision and support should be  offered to women who experienced the above-mentioned risk factors.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
