Introduction: Postpartum depression (PDR) is commonly associated with mothers, but it can also affect fathers, although it is less studied. PLD in fathers can negatively affect family well-being and parenting relationships. Exploring this condition is critical to understanding and improving the support available. Research Aim: This study aims to analyze the prevalence, risk factors, and consequences of postpartum depression in fathers. It also aims to identify the most effective support resources and intervention strategies to address this condition. The nursing goal in the management of postpartum depression in fathers is to ensure that fathers receive early assessment, appropriate intervention, and ongoing support to address depression, improve their psychological well-being, and foster a healthy and positive relationship with their newborn and family. Materials and methods: literature review through pubmed, cochrane library. Results: Results indicate that a significant percentage of fathers experience symptoms of postpartum depression. The main risk factors identified include work stress, lack of social support and marital conflicts. Interviews revealed that many fathers feel neglected and unprepared for the parenting role, and often do not seek help for fear of being judged. Discussion: The results suggest that postpartum depression in fathers is a significant problem that needs more attention. Lack of awareness and stigma may prevent fathers from seeking help. It is essential to develop specific support programs for fathers and improve the training of health professionals to recognize and treat this condition. Conclusion: Postpartum depression in fathers is an underestimated but significant condition with negative impacts on individual and family well-being. Targeted intervention is needed to improve awareness and support for fathers to promote healthy and sustainable fatherhood. Future research should explore specific interventions and prevention strategies to effectively address this condition.
Introduzione: La depressione post partum (DPP) è comunemente associata alle madri, ma può colpire anche i padri, sebbene sia meno studiata. La DPP nei padri può influenzare negativamente il benessere familiare e la relazione genitoriale. Esplorare questa condizione è fondamentale per comprendere e migliorare il supporto disponibile. Obiettivo della ricerca: Questo studio si propone di analizzare la prevalenza, i fattori di rischio e le conseguenze della depressione post partum nei padri. Inoltre, mira a identificare le risorse di supporto e le strategie di intervento più efficaci per affrontare questa condizione. L'obiettivo infermieristico nella gestione della depressione post partum nei padri è quello di garantire che i padri ricevano una valutazione precoce, un intervento appropriato e un supporto continuo per affrontare la depressione, migliorare il loro benessere psicologico e favorire una relazione sana e positiva con il loro neonato e la famiglia. Materiali e metodi: revisione di letteratura mediante pubmed, library cochrane. Risultati: I risultati indicano che una percentuale significativa di padri sperimenta sintomi di depressione post partum. I fattori di rischio principali identificati includono stress da lavoro, mancanza di supporto sociale e conflitti coniugali. Le interviste hanno rivelato che molti padri si sentono trascurati e non preparati per il ruolo genitoriale, e spesso non cercano aiuto per paura di essere giudicati. Discussione: I risultati suggeriscono che la depressione post partum nei padri è un problema rilevante che necessita di maggiore attenzione. La mancanza di consapevolezza e il stigma possono impedire ai padri di cercare aiuto. È essenziale sviluppare programmi di supporto specifici per i padri e migliorare la formazione dei professionisti sanitari per riconoscere e trattare questa condizione. Conclusione: La depressione post partum nei padri è una condizione sottostimata ma significativa, con impatti negativi sul benessere individuale e familiare. È necessario un intervento mirato per migliorare la consapevolezza e il supporto per i padri, al fine di promuovere una paternità sana e sostenibile. Future ricerche dovrebbero esplorare interventi specifici e strategie di prevenzione per affrontare efficacemente questa condizione.
