Effects of the enhanced recovery after surgery intervention for preventing postpartum depression: a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Postpartum depression (PPD), a prevalent public health problem, is a debilitating mental disorder for which preventive interventions could yield dramatic benefits. However, viable approach focusing the prevention of PPD for caesarean section (CS) patients remains limited currently. In recent decades, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has gradually been implemented in CS and appears to be a potential and favourable preventive intervention for PPD, but systematic evidence on this issue is lacking. Therefore, a meta-analysis is designed to systematically explore the potential effect of ERAS on the prevention of PPD in CS patients.

Methods and analysis

Meta-analysis will be performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Anal
