What this Trial Is About
This research focuses on twin pregnant women, aiming to identify psychological problems early and provide timely treatment to reduce mental health issues and promote the well-being of both mother and baby. The study uses psychological screening tools to evaluate stress, anxiety, and depression during pregnancy, emphasizing the importance of early intervention for mental health in this specific group. Participants receive different types of psychological care alongside routine treatment and nursing. One group receives routine psychological care, while the intervention group receives step-by-step psychological care including guided self-help, problem-solving therapy via WeChat and telephone, face-to-face problem-solving therapy courses with nurses and psychological counselors, and professional psychological interventions by mental health physicians or counselors. These interventions vary in duration and frequency, ranging from weekly sessions to short calls over several weeks. Throughout the study, participants are assessed using pregnancy stress, anxiety, and depression scales at various pregnancy stages and after delivery. Researchers monitor outcomes such as preterm birth incidence, premature rupture of membranes, blood pressure, gestational age, and neonatal weight. The study involves regular psychological evaluations and follow-ups to track progress and effectiveness of interventions, with participation spanning from early pregnancy through postpartum periods.
