Is the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale valid?

The EPDS has been considered the gold standard for screening in clinical and research settings; strengths of the EPDS include that it is freely accessible, takes only a few minutes to complete, and that it has been validated for use across the continuum of the perinatal period (Cox et al., 2014).

What is a normal score on the EPDS?

Mild depression (713), Moderate depression (1419), Severe depression (1930). It is interesting to note that many women had scores between 7 and 13, what we would label as nondepressed on the EPDS but a score that would be called mild depression using more conventional scales of depression severity.

Is EPDS scoring free to use?

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.

How reliable is the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale?

The EPDS and GAD-7 are valid screening tests for depressive and anxiety disorders in the postnatal period, respectively. The high sensitivity and NPVs of both instruments mean that most cases will be detected and non-cases will not score positively on the measures.
