Abstract

Objectives: The present study aimed at evaluating the Prevalence of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) following childbirth and its sociodemographic and obstetrics Predictors. Methods: The current cross sectional study was conducted from April to November 2017 by the random sampling method on 365 women aged 18-35 years whose last childbirth occurred within 38-42 weeks of gestation and gave birth 10-16 weeks before the initiation of the study, in Baneh City, Kurdistan Province, Iran. The research tools included a sociodemographic and obstetrics characteristics questionnaire and a checklist of PTSD for DSM-IV. For data analysis, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and multiple linear regression with backward stepwise selection were employed. Results: The Prevalence of PTSD following childbirth was 47. 7%. The mean standard deviation of PTSD following childbirth was 13. 6 10. 9, out of the attainable score of 0-51. The variables, including income status, number of children, desired route of delivery, and the type of recent delivery, were identiﬁ ed as Predictors and accounted for 34% of the variance of PTSD adjusted for other variables. Conclusions: Considering the high Prevalence of PTSD following childbirth, to improve the childbirth experience, well-adjusted interventions should be planned to prevent PTSD after delivery.
