AI Model Helps Identify Patients at Risk of Postpartum Depression

Source: Science Daily - Top HealthPostpartum depression (PPD) affects up to 15% of mothers after childbirth, but early identification of patients at risk of PPD can improve proactive mental health support. To help, researchers have developed an artificial intelligence model to assess PPD risk using readily accessible clinical and demographic factors. The findings, published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, suggest the model may have considerable clinical value.
