Abstract

Women in the perinatal phase are at an increased risk of experiencing mental health problems, but in low and middle-income countries such as India, perinatal mental health (PMH) care provision is often scarce. This situational analysis presents the formative findings of the SMARThealth Pregnancy and Mental Health (PRAMH) project (Votruba et al. 2023). It investigates the nature and availability of maternal mental health policies, legislation, systems and services, as well as relevant context and community in India on a national, state (Haryana and Telangana) and district (Faridabad and Siddipet) level. A desktop, scoping review and informal interviews with mental health experts were conducted. Socio-demographic and maternal health indicators vary between Haryana and Telangana. No specific national PMH policy or plan is available. General mental health services exist at a district level within Siddipet and Faridabad, but no specific PMH services have been identified.

印度哈里亚纳邦和特伦加纳邦的围产期心理健康：地区层面的情况分析。

围产期妇女出现精神健康问题的风险增加，但在印度等低收入和中等收入国家，围产期精神卫生保健服务往往很少。这一情境分析展示了智能健康妊娠和心理健康（PRAMH）项目（Votruba等人，2023年）的形成性发现。它在国家、邦（哈里亚纳邦和特伦甘纳邦）和区（法里达巴德和西迪佩特）层面调查了印度孕产妇心理健康政策、立法、系统和服务的性质和可得性，以及相关的背景和社区。对心理健康专家进行了桌面、范围审查和非正式访谈。哈里亚纳邦和特伦甘纳邦的社会人口和产妇保健指标各不相同。没有具体的国家妇幼保健政策或计划。在西迪佩特和法里达巴德地区一级存在一般精神卫生服务，但没有确定具体的妇幼保健服务。

期刊介绍： lobal Mental Health (GMH) is an Open Access journal that publishes papers that have a broad application of ‘the global point of view’ of mental health issues. The field of ‘global mental health’ is still emerging, reflecting a movement of advocacy and associated research driven by an agenda to remedy longstanding treatment gaps and disparities in care, access, and capacity. But these efforts and goals are also driving a potential reframing of knowledge in powerful ways, and positioning a new disciplinary approach to mental health. GMH seeks to cultivate and grow this emerging distinct discipline of ‘global mental health’, and the new knowledge and paradigms that should come from it.
