    Abstract This retrospective cohort study included 77 mother-infant dyads that delivered term pregnancies at a single tertiary care institution. The primary objective was to investigate whether maternal dose of opioid maintenance therapy during pregnancy affects infant outcomes. All infants had prenatal exposure to opioid maintenance therapies. Maternal dose was converted into morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs) and stratified into high- (MME >1000 mg) and low-dose groups (MME ≤1000 mg). Associations between infant outcomes and MME dosage were examined using Wilcoxon rank-sum and Fisher's Exact tests. Days to symptom control were significantly higher in the high MME group (5 days vs 2.8 days,

    Abstract Background: Postpartum depression affects 10% to 20% of birthing people and is associated with changes in healthcare use. Little is known about the association between postpartum depressive symptoms and choice to use contraception; however, both untreated or undertreated depression and short interpregnancy intervals pose substantial perinatal health risks.
    Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether postpartum depressive symptoms are associated with changes in decisions to use any method of contraception.
    Study design: This retrospective cohort study included birthing people who delivered between 2017 and 2022 and were referred to a collaborative care program for mental healthcare. Through this program, birthing people with mental health conditions have access to specialized perinatal mental healthcare and prospective symptom monitoring via a patient registry. Postpartum depressive symptoms are assessed via the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and scores were stratified by severity according to clinical cutoffs. Contraceptive method choice was determined by documentation in the electronic health record and dichotomized as "none" if the participant declined all forms of contraception both at delivery and at the postpartum visit. Bivariable and multivariable analyses were performed.
    Results: Of the 1871 participants that met the inclusion criteria, 160 (8.5%) had postpartum Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scores of >14, representing moderately severe or worse depressive symptoms, and 43 (2.3%) had severe (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 of >19) depressive symptoms. Birthing people with higher Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scores were more likely to have medical comorbidities; to have a higher body mass index; to self-identify as Black, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, or Hispanic or Latina; and to have a preterm delivery and less likely to be married or nulliparous than those with Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scores of ≤14. There was no difference in any other sociodemographic or clinical characteristics. The choice to use any contraceptive method decreased with increasing depressive symptoms in bivariable and multivariable analyses, reaching statistical significance in birthing people with severe depressive symptoms (adjusted odds ratio, 2.92; 95% confidence interval, 1.46-5.84).
    Conclusion: Severe perinatal depressive symptoms are associated with a declination of any form of postpartum contraception. This finding becomes increasingly relevant as abortion access continues to be threatened across the United States, compounding the potential effect of opting not to use contraception.

    Abstract Background: Untreated antenatal mental health conditions are associated with noninitiation and early discontinuation of breastfeeding. Whether interventions designed to optimize perinatal mental health can mitigate this association is unknown.
    Objective: This study aimed to examine whether engagement of pregnant people with mental health conditions in a perinatal mental health collaborative care program was associated with differences in breastfeeding initiation and continuation and whether any observed association was mediated by changes in depressive symptoms.
    Study design: This retrospective cohort study included all pregnant people who were referred antenatally by their obstetrical clinician to a perinatal collaborative care program and who delivered viable neonates between January 2017 and June 2018. Pregnant people were dichotomized by whether they engaged in collaborative care services. Breastfeeding initiation (endorsed at delivery) and continuation at the postpartum visit were compared between individuals who did and did not engage in collaborative care using bivariable and multivariable analyses. Mediation analyses were performed to determine if any observed associations were mediated by improvements or remission in depressive symptoms.
    Results: During the study period, 350 eligible pregnant people were referred to the perinatal collaborative care program because of an identified mental health condition. Of these people, 264 (75.4%) engaged in collaborative care. Compared with those who did not engage in collaborative care, people who engaged in collaborative care were more likely to initiate breastfeeding (168 [95%] vs 47 [87%]; P=.046) and continue breastfeeding at the postpartum visit (92 [74%] vs 20 [53%]; P=.012). These associations persisted after controlling for potential confounders (adjusted odds ratio for initiation, 3.30; 95% confidence interval, 1.09-9.98; adjusted odds ratio for continuation, 3.08; 95% confidence interval, 1.29-7.36). Neither association was mediated by improvements or remission in depressive symptoms.
    Conclusion: Although antenatal mental health conditions are a risk factor for lack of initiation or early cessation of breastfeeding, engagement in a collaborative care program was associated with improvements in both breastfeeding initiation and continuation. This association was independent of improvement in depressive symptoms, suggesting that the benefits of perinatal collaborative care may extend beyond its psychological impact.

    Abstract Background: Having a history of adverse childhood experiences is associated with an increased risk for treatment-resistant depression in the general population. Whether this relationship is true in the perinatal context is unknown.
    Objective: This study aimed to examine the association between adverse childhood experiences and the trajectories of antenatal and postpartum depression among people enrolled in a perinatal collaborative care program for mental healthcare.
    Study design: This retrospective cohort study included all pregnant and postpartum people who were referred to and enrolled in a perinatal collaborative care program for mental healthcare and who delivered at a single, quaternary care institution between March 2016 and March 2021. Individuals referred to the collaborative care program were linked with a care manager and had access to evidence-based mental health treatment such as a psychiatric consult, pharmacotherapy, and psychotherapy. All individuals enrolled in the collaborative care program underwent adverse childhood experience screens at intake. A score of >3 on the validated Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire was defined as a high adverse childhood experience score. Depression symptom monitoring occurred via electronic Patient Health Questionaire-9 screening every 2 to 4 weeks, and escalation of care was recommended for those without evidence of improvement. Antenatal depression trajectories were determined by comparing the earliest available prenatal Patient Health Questionaire-9 score closest to the time of referral to collaborative care with the latest Patient Health Questionaire-9 score before delivery. Postpartum trajectories were determined by comparing the earliest postpartum Patient Health Questionaire-9 score after delivery with the latest score before 12 weeks' postpartum. Depression trajectories were categorized as improved, stable, or worsened based on whether the Patient Health Questionaire-9 scores changed by at least 2 standard deviations (ie, 5 points on the Patient Health Questionaire-9 scale). Bivariable and multivariable analyses were performed.
    Results: Of the 1270 people who met the inclusion criteria, 294 (23.1%) reported a high adverse childhood experience score. Those with a high adverse childhood experience score were more likely to experience a worsened antenatal depression trajectory than those with a low adverse childhood experience score (10.3% vs 4.3%; P=.008). This association persisted after adjusting for potential confounders (adjusted odds ratio, 2.39; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-5.46). There was no significant difference in the postpartum depression trajectories between those with a high and those with a low adverse childhood experience score.
    Conclusion: Having a high adverse childhood experience score is associated with a worsened antenatal depression trajectory for those enrolled in a collaborative care program. Given its high prevalence, future research should evaluate effective modalities of perinatal depression prevention and treatment specific for pregnant people with a history of adverse childhood experiences.

    Abstract Background: The policies pertaining to perinatal healthcare should be informed by medical needs. The windows of standard obstetrical care and mandated Medicaid coverage eligibility typically end approximately 8 weeks postpartum, even though women may have perinatal health concerns, including suicidal ideation, which are identified beyond this period.
    Objective: To evaluate the timing of mental health needs across the perinatal period with a focus on how frequently the initial referral and suicidal ideation occur outside of standard obstetrical care windows.
    Study design: This retrospective cohort study included all women during pregnancy or up to one year postpartum referred to a perinatal mental health collaborative care program (COMPASS) between September 2017 and September 2019. The timing of initial referral to COMPASS was identified, with women referred postpartum categorized by whether the referral was made after 8 weeks postpartum. The characteristics of the women were compared according to the timing of the initial mental health referral with receiver operating characteristic curves to identify whether patient characteristics could accurately classify women whose initial mental health needs were not recognized until after 8 weeks postpartum. Similarly, the assessment of suicidal ideation, either at or after referral, was ascertained, with the evaluation of the timing at which suicidal ideation was first expressed.
    Results: Of 1421 women referred for mental healthcare during the study period, 774 (54%) were initially referred antenatally and 647 (46%) were initially referred postpartum. The women who were referred antenatally exhibited no clustering in the timing of referral. Of the women referred postpartum, 203 (31%) were referred after 8 weeks postpartum. Sociodemographic and medical characteristics were unable to accurately classify which women were referred for mental health care after 8 weeks postpartum (area under the curve, 0.64; 95% confidence interval, 0.58-0.68). A total of 215 (16%) women reported suicidal ideation at or after the time of initial referral: 129 (17%) antenatally and 86 (14%) postpartum. The incidence of suicidal ideation was not significantly different before vs 8 weeks postpartum.
    Conclusion: Perinatal mental health needs, including suicidal ideation, are often first recognized beyond 8 weeks postpartum. These data should be taken into consideration in policymaking discussions pertaining to the approach to medical care continuity and postpartum healthcare coverage.
