Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale1
The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is a questionnaire originally developed to assist in identifying possible symptoms of depression in the postnatal period. It also has adequate sensitivity and specificity to identify depressive symptoms in the antenatal period and is useful in identifying symptoms of anxiety. The EPDS is not a diagnostic tool; rather it is a screening tool that aims to identify women who may benefit from follow-up care, such as mental health assessment.
