Abstract

(Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand. 2023;102:1014–1025) The COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly impacted various aspects of life, posing risks not only to physical health but also to mental well-being. Psychological effects such as stress, anxiety, and depression are prevalent, particularly among pregnant women, with potential repercussions for pregnancy outcomes. This study explored the sociodemographic and psychological factors during the COVID pandemic that affected the mood of pregnant Czech women. Conducted through the MindCOVID study, our survey included 1830 pregnant women, utilizing standardized instruments (GAD-7 and PHQ-9) to assess anxiety and depression. The study focused on culturally specific characteristics and risk factors for mental disorders, providing valuable insights for effective multidisciplinary health care planning.
