A Group Parenting Intervention for Male Postpartum Depression
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Importance: Male postpartum depression is prevalent across populations; however, there is limited evidence on strategies to address it, particularly in low-income settings. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of Learning Through Play Plus Dads (LTP + Dads), a nonspecialist-delivered psychosocial intervention, in improving symptoms of male postpartum depression compared to treatment as usual. Design, Setting, and Participants: This cluster randomized clinical trial was conducted in Karachi, Pakistan, between June 2018 and November 2019. Assessors were blind to treatment allocation. Participants were recruited from 2 large towns in the city of Karachi via basic health units. Fathers aged 18 years and older with a DSM-5 diagnosis of major depressive episode and a child younger than 30 months were recruited. Of 1582 fathers approached, 1527 were screened and 357 were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or treatment as usual; 328 were included in the final analysis. Data were analyzed from April to June 2022. Interventions: LTP + Dads is a manualized intervention combining parenting skills training, play therapy, and cognitive behavior therapy. The intervention was delivered by community health workers via 12 group sessions over 4 months. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcome was change in 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale score at 4 months. Secondary outcomes included anxiety symptoms; parenting stress; intimate partner violence; functioning; quality of life; and child social, emotional, and physical health outcomes. Assessments were completed at baseline and 4 and 6 months postrandomization. Results: Of the 357 fathers included (mean [SD] age, 31.44 [7.24] years), 171 were randomized to the intervention and 186 to treatment as usual. Participants randomized to the intervention demonstrated significantly greater improvements in depression (group difference ratio [GDR], 0.66; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.91; P < .001), anxiety (GDR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.48 to 0.81; P < .001), parenting stress (GDR, -12.5; 95% CI, -19.1 to -6.0; P < .001), intimate partner violence (GDR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.80 to 1.00; P = .05), disability (GDR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.61 to 0.97; P = .03), and health-related quality of life (GDR, 12.7; 95% CI, 0.17 to 0.34; P < .001) at 4 months. The difference in depression and parenting stress was sustained at 6 months. Children of fathers randomized to the parenting intervention had significantly greater improvements in social-emotional development scores (mean difference, -20.8; 95% CI, -28.8 to -12.9; P < .001) at 6 months. Conclusions and Relevance: The psychosocial parenting intervention in this study has the potential to improve paternal mental health and child development in Pakistan. Further studies in other populations and with longer follow-up are warranted. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03564847.
