ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

• 10 - 13% : Major and Minor Depression• (O’Hara, 1990; Gotlib et al, 1989; Kumar 1984,

Evans et al 2001)

• Low SES and psychosocial stressors• (Hopfer et al 1995)

• Strongest Predictor of PPD• (Graff et al, 1991)

ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

• Poor Appetite; Weight

• Insomnia

• Poor Prenatal Care

• Nicotine, Drugs and Alcohol

(Zuckerman et al, 1990)

Page 4: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

• Low birth weight• Prematurity• Growth retardation• Small for gestational age infants• Developmental delay

• (Flynn 2005; Bonari et al 2004; Kurki et al 2000; Zuckerman et al, 1990; )

PRENATAL DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY

ANXIETY>>>>> UTERINE ARTERY

RESISTANCE >>>>

• LOW BIRTH WEIGHT • INCREASED MISCARRIAGE• PREMATURITY• FETAL HYPOXIA

– (Glover and O’Connor 2002, Chung et al 2001, Wadhwa et al 1993 Teseira et al. 1999)

Antenatal Anxiety: effects on the fetus and child

• ALSPAC community sample – n=8,323 mother-infant

pairs

– Gestational Age: 32 weeks

– Behavioral problems at 4 and 7 years

DECISION ANALYSIS

Page 8: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

RISK / BENEFIT ANALYSIS

• framed by clinician’s expertise and the patient’s values and treatment preferences

• **PLAN BEFORE PREGNANCY**• (Wisner et al 2000)

Page 9: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

Antidepressant SSRIs: metanalysis

 o Sertraline (Zoloft)

o Citalopram (Celexa)

o Fluoxetine (Prozac)

o no major malformationso +/- Neonatal toxicity

(Sivojelezova et al; 2005)

Page 10: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

PAXIL

• Retrospective Epidemiological Study– 3,581 SSRI exposed pregnant women

• increased risk of major congenital malformations

– (OR 2.20; 95% CI: 1.34-3.63)

• increased risk for cardiovascular malformations– (OR 2.08; 95%CI: 1.03-4.23)

– Ventricular Septal Defect. (10/14)• (GSK: 2005)

Page 11: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

TRICYCLICS (TCAs)

• Desipramine (DMI)

• Nortryptylline(NTP)

– Serum levels

– Neonatal toxicity +/-• Withdrawal sx.

• Anticholinergic effects

Page 12: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

Neurodevelopment: TCA or SSRIs through fetal life

Mother- child pairs (15-71 mos.): Tricyclics: (n = 46) Fluoxetine: (n = 40) Control: (n = 36)

Results: TCA or SSRI:– NO difference in IQ (Baylor or Mc Carhty scales),– temperament, language, or behavior

Depression: duration>>>> low IQ episodes>>>> poor language development

– Nulman et al 2002

Page 13: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

“Neonatal Withdrawal Syndrome” Databases of adverse drug events

• WHO Collaborating Center for Drug Monitoring– ID 74 Cases of “Neonatal Withdrawal Syndrome”– tremor, neonatal convulsions, abnormal crying

• (paroxetine (n=51), fluoxetine (10), sertraline (7), citalopram (6), venlafaxine (6)

• (Sanz et al; The Lancet, 2005)

• FDA Adverse Event Reporting System – 57 cases of neonatal withdrawal

– (paroxetine (n=35), fluoxetine (4), sertraline (8), citalopram (5), venlafaxine (3), fluvoxamine (2)

(CDER: 2004, meeting document)

Page 14: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

SSRI Neonatal WD: Case Reports• 18 cases of SSRI

– 61% Paxil; 22% Prozac

• Exposure– (17-40 weeks gestation; median 40 wks)

• Onset of symptoms:– Tremor, increased muscle tone, irritability, resp distress

• birth to 3 weeks

• Duration of symptoms:• mean: 2 weeks

• SSRIs:– (paroxetine (n=11), fluoxetine (4), sertraline (1), citalopram (1),

venlafaxine (1)• (Moses-Kolko et al; JAMA, 2005)

Page 15: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

Meta-analysis: 3rd TM exposure to SSRIs

• Neonatal Behavioral Syndrome;– Meta-analysis: 3rd TM: ( 9 cohort studies and 18 cases)

– Risk Ratio : 3.0 (95% CI, 2.0-4.4)– CNS, motor, respiratory and GI signs – Usually mild and time limited (2 weeks)– Managed with supportive care – Most involve fluoxetine and paroxetine– More severe: seizures, hyperpyrexia etc.

• (Moses-Kolko et al. JAMA, 2005)

Page 16: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

Neonatal Adaptation after 3rd TM exposure to SSRIs

Neonatal Behavioral Syndrome;Special Care Nursery Admissions:

2.6 (95% CI, 1.4-4.7)

Overall respiratory difficulty:

2.3 (95% CI, 1.6-3.2)

– Incidence of Intubation: 0.3% (1/313)

– No neonatal deaths

• (Moses-Kolko et al. JAMA, 2005)

Page 17: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

SSRIs and Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn

377 Infants born with PPHN

14 infants with late (>20 weeks) SSRI exposure were compared to

6 control infants with early (<20 weeks) or no exposure to SSRI.

Odds of PPHN with late exposure compared to early or no exposure :

6.1 (95% CI, 2.2-16.8)(Chambers et al, NEJM, 2006)

Page 18: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

Absolute Risk of PPHN

• Limitations:– supports association; no cause effect relationship– small Ns– retrospective

RR = 6.1 (95% CI, 2.2-16.8)

Absolute Risk = 6-12/ 1000 births (0.6-1.2%)

Therefore 99% of women treated with an SSRI delivered infants without PPHN

Page 19: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

How should these reports

impact clinical practice?

Recurrence Risk of MDD in women who discontinue antidepressant treatment

proximal to conception

Group Relapse

Discontinued 44/65 (68%)

Maintained 21/82 (25%)

Time to recurrence:

50% in 1st TM / 90% in 2nd TM(Cohen et al; JAMA, 2006)

THERAPY

• APA guidelines:

– Ob consult

– Gest age >10 weeks

– Maternal and fetal heart rate

– Ob present if high risk

– Faculties for fetal emergencies

– Monitor fetal movement

Epidemiology of Postpartum Episodes

Page 38: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

Postpartum Depression Prevalence: 10-20%

Across cultures (Kumar 1994)

Risk Factors: Personal and Family H/O depression

Prenatal depression**

Prominent symptoms: anxiety associated with distressing thoughts about infant safety Feelings of guilt and inadequacy about mothering Inability to sleep when infant sleeps lack of interest in baby, family or activities anxiety as bizarre thoughts and fears poor bonding, feel “detached” “numb” Thoughts of death or suicide

(DOH;OMH 2005; Flynn, 2005)

Guidelines for Medicating during Lactation

• Avoid polypharmacy

• Monitor infant sleep, feeding

• Bottle feed if sick

• Lowest effective dose

• Collaboration with Pediatrician

• All pass to breast milk

– depends on drug and metabolite

– UK outcome on physiology, behavior and development

Benefits of BreastfeedingProvides immunity

Allergies, asthmaOtitis media

Viral diarrhea

RSV morbidity

Upper and lower respiratory infection

IQ: 8-12 points

Page 42: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

BREASTFEEDING AND ANTIDEPRESSANTS

• SSRIs: first line – Few adverse effects to date

– Infant serum: minimal or no drug or metabolite***

• TCAs: second line– NTP (least detected in infant serum)

– Limitations:• Small Ns, case reports, no long term effects

• ***does not apply to fluoxetine/ venlafaxine

Page 43: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

BREASTFEEDING AND ANTIDEPRESSANTS

Celexa: Elevated infant levels

‘uneasy sleep”

Serum Fluoxetine accumulation long T ½: accumulation in infant serum

Immature infant enzymes

Irritability

Page 44: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

BREASTFEEDING AND ANTIDEPRESSANTS

Sertraline

usually yields undetectable infant serum levels

No adverse effects

Maternal 5HT concentration decreased with sertraline but infant platelet 5HT transport not affected c/w undetectable levels in infant serum.

• (Epperson 2003)

Page 45: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

BENZODIAZEPINES AND LACTATION

• Neonatal Risks (Burt et al. AJP 2001)

– withdrawal, sedation, cyanosis

• Guidelines– low dose, monotherapy– split dosing– discard feeding at peak drug level; – formula supplementation– short-acting, low metabolites

• Alternative:– Nortryptylline (NTP)

Page 46: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

POSTPARTUM PSYCHOSIS

auditory hallucinations (baby; religious) visual hallucination (seeing or feeling a presence) agitation, irritability paranoid delusions delirium (waxing and waning) confusion mania suicidal or infanticidal thoughts bizarre delusions

• cognitive disorganizationcognitive disorganization

• visual, tactile and olfactory hallucinationsvisual, tactile and olfactory hallucinations

• bizarre behavior

• self-neglectWaxing and waning presentation

***Psychiatric emergency***

Page 49: ANTEPARTUM DEPRESSION

PPP is BPD?? (Chaudron 2003)

• Bipolar women– high risk for postpartum episode

– (Liebenluft ‘96)

– highest rates of PPP in general population– (Jones and Craddock 2001, Reich and Winokur, 1970)

– high rates of PP relapse– (Marks et al, 1992, Dean et al. 1989)

– FH of PPP– (Jones and Craddock 2001, Reich and Winokur, 1970,

‘The infant's life is a vulnerable thing and depends

to a great extent on the mother's good will. Sara

Ruddick (1989) has captured the contradictions

well in noting that mothers, while so totally in

control of the lives and well being of their infants

and small babies, are themselves under the

dominion and control of others…...
