Resumen

Este estudio tiene como objetivo identificar la prevalencia de depresión e ideación suicida y sus factores asociados en gestantes de un ambulatorio de prenatal de alto riesgo. Se realizó un estudio transversal censal con 215 mujeres embarazadas de alto riesgo atendidas en una clínica ambulatoria especializada, ubicada en un hospital en el extremo sur de Brasil. Las participantes completaron un cuestionario sociodemográfico y la Escala de Depresión Postnatal de Edimburgo. Se encontró una prevalencia de depresión del 40,5% y de ideación suicida del 20%. Se identificaron asociaciones entre el aumento de la depresión y  historial de enfermedad mental(RP: 1,18; IC95%: 1,07-1,36), apoyo social considerado como bueno (RP: 1,16; IC95%: 1,06-1,29) y apoyo social considerado como mediano o malo (RP:1,34; IC95%: 1,20-1,51). Se encontraron asociaciones entre una mayor prevalencia de ideación suicida y vivir con VIH (RP 1,17; IC95%: 1,02-1,34), historia de enfermedad mental (RP: 1,15; IC95%: 1,06-1,23), apoyo social bueno y apoyo social percibido como mediano o malo  (RP: 1,17; IC95%: 1,07-1,29). Los resultados indican la necesidad de un cribado psicológico en los servicios especializados, así como estrategias para mejorar la planificación familiar y el apoyo social en el embarazo de alto riesgo.
