The effectiveness of psychological interventions for pregnant women with anxiety in the antenatal period: A systematic review

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Healthcare professionals need to be aware of the potential benefits of mindfulness based interventions in practice. There is some evidence to support their use in the antenatal period, however, there remains insufficient evidence to confidently advocate for their use in practice. Follow-up research needs to be conducted on the efficacy of mindfulness based interventions on women with anxiety in the antenatal period using rigorous RCT's. Education and training of Midwives to help promote and use this intervention is recommended.PMID:34749125 | DOI:10.1016/j.midw.2021.103169
