Resumo: Objective: This study aimed to track symptoms of depression, anxiety and perception of social support in pregnancy.Material and Methods: 90 pregnant women, aged between 18 and 45 (M = 28.62; SD = 7.10), who answered a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale, the Anxiety Inventory and the Social Support Perception Scale. To compare the indexes of the scales with the sociodemographic variables, a t-test and ANOVA were performed, as well as a Pearson’s correlations to evaluate the relationship between the scales.Results: The presence of depressive symptoms (≥13 score) was found in 28.9% of the investigated pregnant women, while anxious symptoms (above 40 points) were present in 60%. Statistical significance associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms were found in relation to the variables: housing, family income, pregnancy planning, personal history (including previous depression) and family mental disorder. The anxiety symptoms presented significant association with relationship status, health problems and current psychiatric treatment. Pearson’s correlation revealed statistical significance between depression, anxiety and social support.Conclusion: These data show the importance of screening and the need for measures to prevent and promote maternal health.

Para comparar os índices das escalas com as variáveis sociodemográficas foram realizados teste-t e ANOVA e, correlações de Pearson para avaliar a relação entre as escalas. A presença de sintomatologia depressiva com pontuação ≥13 foi encontrada em 28,9% das gestantes investigadas, enquanto os sintomas ansiosos acima de 40 pontos mostraram-se presentes em 60%. Foram encontradas significâncias estatísticas associadas a sintomatologia depressiva e de ansiedade em relação às variáveis moradia, renda familiar, planejamento da gestação, histórico de transtorno mental pessoal (entre eles depressão anterior) e familiar. Os sintomas de ansiedade apresentaram associação significativa ainda com o status do relacionamento, problemas de saúde e tratamento psiquiátrico atual. Correlação de Pearson revelou significância estatística entre depressão, ansiedade e suporte social. Estes dados mostram a importância do rastreio e a necessidade de medidas de prevenção e promoção da saúde materna.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle CanoasCNPqAraujo, NeuraciCerqueira-Santos, Elder2021-11-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/773910.18316/sdh.v9i3.7739Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 9, n. 3 (2021); p. 1-13Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano; v. 9, n. 3 (2021); p. 1-132317-8582reponame:Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinstname:Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)instacron:UNILASALLEporhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/view/7739/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/article/downloadSuppFile/7739/1788Direitos autorais 2021 Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humanoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-03-14T12:44:40Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/7739Revistahttp://www.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimentohttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/saude_desenvolvimento/oaisdh@unilasalle.edu.br2317-85822317-8582opendoar:2022-03-14T12:44:40Saúde e Desenvolvimento Humano - Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)false
