health services
– Less likely to receive needed mental health
services
– Those in treatment often receive a poorer
quality of mental health care
– Underrepresented in mental health research
– Experience a greater burden of disability
Perinatal depression among British Pakistani
women
– Social isolation
– Language difficulties, don’t speak English
fluently
– Unemployment
– Lack of satisfactory confiding relationship
– Low self esteem

member

Analysis of Completers
• Completers were defined as those participants
who had attended 4 or more sessions.
• Fifteen of the 42 patients in the intervention
group did not attend any of the therapy
sessions, while the remaining 27 patients
attended at least 4 sessions.
• Spearman’s correlation coefficient between the
number of sessions attended and reduction in
Hamilton score from baseline to follow up 1
was 0.35, p=0.048, with greater reductions in
Hamilton score being associated with more
sessions attended.
• Correlations between changes from baseline to
follow-ups in the other variables ranged from 0.20 for EPDS at 2nd follow up to 0.40 for
DAS at 2nd follow up.
Results
• All the participants reported improved well-being
since attending the PHP.
• Women reported improvements in their lifestyle
by being more proactive, enhanced self-esteem,
being able to manage stress more effectively.
• Embracing and adopting a positive view of life.
“I am very open now, my behaviour has changed a lot,
before I was very reluctant to speak and was yes
there is difference, I am more open with people I try
to be more communicative and friendly when I go out.
It’s an overall change in attitude”
Conclusion
• The findings suggest that a culturally adapted
intervention (PHP) is acceptable to British South
Asian women with PND.
• Interventions targeting PND in BSA women
should pay particular attention to ways of
improving social support, independent coping
strategies, role of facilitator, language aspects,
childcare and transport provision and using the
group discussion techniques (Stories)
