▼a Perinatal distress (PD) is a term used to describe the mood, anxiety, or in rarer cases, psychotic symptoms that women experience during pregnancy or in the postpartum period. PD is associated with significant emotional and social impairments that impact women, their children, and their partners. When PD is more acute and safety concerns emerge for mothers and possibly their children, inpatient hospitalization may be indicated. Although hospitalization tends to result in improved immediate safety outcomes, many women are discharged when they are "better but not well." Additionally, research shows that interpersonal and environmental factors, particularly those that exist within intimate relationships, can significantly help or hinder patient progress. Yet, the partner is also affected by the patient's symptoms and often lacks the skills or knowledge to support her in her recovery. Given the research demonstrating that integrating partners into treatment improves individual and relational outcomes across psychopathology, the aim of the present investigation is to address perinatal mood disorders through a dyadic lens by integrating partners into treatment. In this feasibility study, 20 male partners of women hospitalized for PD were recruited to participate in a single, 90-minute intervention designed to improve partner understanding and support behaviors. The qualitative feedback from partners suggests that the intervention was acceptable and the high recruitment rates demonstrate strong feasibility. In terms of clinical outcomes, at the four-week follow-up mark, partners reported significant gains in the context of their support self-efficacy, and patients reported significantly improved depression and anxiety symptoms. Patients also reported that they were significantly more satisfied with the support that their partners were providing, although the frequency of partner support behaviors was unchanged. The findings from this study suggest that the intervention may serve to enhance the recovery of women hospitalized for PD and that a larger randomized control trial is indicated to establish the efficacy of the intervention. |
