The EPDS focuses on psychological manifestations and excludes the three physical symptoms of major depression (fatigue, changes in weight or appetite, and psychomotor arousal/delay). The PHQ-9 not only screens for depression but also shows its severity (Kroenke et al., 2001).
Questions 1, 2 and 3 Are scored 3, 2, 1, or 0 with the top box scored as 3 and the bottom box scored as 0. Total the scores for each question to get an overall score. The EPDS-3 has a total potential score of 9. The EPDS-3 score is converted to an EPDS-10 score by multiplying the EPDS-3 score by 10 and dividing by 3.
Both the EPDS and the PHQ-9 are validated for use in the perinatal population, and there is no fee. The benefits are that they are self-administered, translated into many languages, and easy to complete.
Interpretation and Scoring The EPDS has a maximum score of 30; a score of 10 or more may indicate possible depression of varying severity. Always pay attention to Item 10, which speaks to suicidal thoughts. The EPDS score should not override clinical judgment.
Possible limitations include the following: (1) ambiguous items, (2) exclusion of certain types of distress, (3) scoring difficulties, (4) low positive predictive value, (5) frequent use of incorrect cut-off scores, (6) a vast array of validated cut-off scores, (7) validation against a questionable gold-standard, (8)
