Levey EJ, et al. - This study was designed not only to estimate the prevalence of antepartum post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in a population of pregnant Peruvian women but also to explore the influence of a number of traumatic events and type of trauma experienced. The authors in this reported the high prevalence of PTSD during pregnancy in the Peruvian population, which was relevant to other countries suffering from terrorism, war, or high rates of violence. This emphasized the importance of screening for PTSD in pregnancy.
