Abstract:
Objective To explore the influence of patient-controlled epidural analgesia(PCEA) on incidence of postpartum depression after cesarean section. Methods 256 cases of singleton term primary cesarean delivery were randomly divided into the study group( 130 cases)and the control group( 126 cases).The study group retained analgesia pump connected with epidural catheter,analgesic liquid was injected.In the control group,epidural catheter was removed,and was given intramuscular injection of pethidine hydrochloride 100 mg 4~6 h after operation,repeated 6 h later,total dosage was 200 mg.Postoperative observation time was 48h.Plasma prolactin(PRL) concentration was determined by radioimmunoassay in prenatal,postnatal 24 h and 48 h.Edinburgh postnatal depression scale (EPDS) was used to assess depression state 6 weeks postpartum in the two groups.The incidence of postpartum depression was compared between two groups. Results The plasma PRL level in the study group was significantly higher than the control group 24 h,48 h postpartum.The incidence rate of depression in the study group was 6.15%,while was 16.67% in the control group,the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions The application of PCEA after cesarean section can significantly reduce the incidence of postpartum depression,and has very important practical significance in preventing the incidence of postpartum depression.
