No full textIntroductionPostnatal depression is a significant public health issue which may escalate and lead to adverse outcomes for women, infants, their family and the wider society. The aim of this review was to examine the effectiveness and experiences of mother-led infant massage on symptoms of maternal postnatal depression and to synthesise these findings to inform policy, practice and further research.MethodsA systematic search of five academic databases was conducted: CINAHL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO and Allied and Complementary Medicine Database in February 2023 with no date or geographic limiters set owing to the paucity of research on this subject area. Quality appraisal was undertaken using the Joanna Briggs Institute quality appraisal tools and all included RCT’s were assessed separately using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Narrative synthesis was used to analyse the data.FindingsA total of (n = 323) studies were returned of which (n = 8) met the inclusion criteria for the review. This review identified a total sampling of (n = 521) women with maternal postnatal depression. The results are presented under three themes: 1) the effectiveness of mother-led infant massage on symptoms of postnatal depression; 2) women’s experiences of mother-led infant massage; and 3) the effects of mother-led infant massage on the mother-infant relationship.DiscussionThe review highlights women who used infant massage displayed a reduction in symptoms of postnatal depression, improved mother-infant interactions and improved self-efficacy in addition to benefits for infants. Public Health Nurse/Community Midwife-led infant massage may help to relieve such symptoms and empower women.</div
Women's experiences of prison-based mental healthcare: w systematic review of qualitative literature
No full textPurpose – The rate of female committals to prison has grown rapidly in recent years. Women in prison
are likely to have trauma histories and difficulties with their mental health. This paper aims to synthesise
the findings of qualitative literature to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of women in the
context of prison-based mental health care.
Design/methodology/approach – A systematic search of five academic databases, Cumulative Index to
Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts, Psychological Information
Database (PsycINFO), Excerpta Medica DataBASE (EMBASE) and Medline, was completed in December
2020. This study’s search strategy identified 4,615 citations, and seven studies were included for review.
Thomas and Harden’s (2008) framework for thematic synthesis was used to analyse data. Quality appraisal
was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute Checklist for Qualitative Research (Lockwood et al., 2015).
Findings – Four analytic themes were identified that detail women’s experiences of prison-based mental
health care: the type of services accessed and challenges encountered; a reduction in capacity to self manage mental well-being; the erosion of privacy and dignity; and strained relationships with prison staff.
There is a paucity of research conducted with women in the context of prison-based mental health care.
The findings suggest there is a need for greater mental health support, including the need to enhance
relationships between women and prison staff to promote positive mental health.
Originality/value – To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first systematic review conducted on
the experiences of women in the context of prison-based mental health care.
