Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS)
Evaluates risk and severity of postpartum depression to help with identifying patients at risk. Mothers who obtain scores greater than 13 have an increased likelihood to develop Postpartum Mood or Anxiety Disorders. As you are pregnant or have recently had a baby, we would like to know how you are feeling. Please check the answer that comes closest to how you have felt IN THE PAST 7 DAYS, not just how you feel today.
