Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: COVID-19 pandemic has affected the pregnant women both physically and mentally. This study is conducted to assess, the impact on COVID-19 pandemic on psychiatric symptoms among pregnancy and to compare them with non-pregnant women.
UNASSIGNED: An observational study was conducted at Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Ooty (Udhagamandalam). A validated Edinburgh Depression Scale was used to screen the mental health status. Categorical variables were analysed using Chi-square test and continuous variables by independent t test. A Pearson\'s correlation analysis was performed to check the association of Edinburgh postnatal depression scores with the demographic characteristics. Paired t test was conducted to find the difference in EPDS scores at baseline and study conclusion visit. Regression analysis was conducted to predict the outcome variables.
UNASSIGNED: The Edinburgh Depression scores were significantly higher in the pregnant women group, (12.48 ± 3.753 vs. 8.00 ± 2.436; p value = 0.001; 95% CI 3.340-5.627), when compared to non-pregnant women (12.90 ± 3.731 vs. 9.20 ± 2.973; p value = 0.001; 95% CI 2.480-4.920). The Edinburgh Depression scores at the study conclusion visit was statistically significant, (11.05 ± 3.839 vs. 10.24 ± 3.872; p value = 0.008; 95% CI -1.40 to -0.213). Education, income, duration of marriage, body mass index, and suicidal ideation are some of the predictors identified in this study to cause depression among pregnant women.
UNASSIGNED: The findings of the study indicate a clinically significant increase of depressive symptoms among pregnant women. It is recommended to include routine psychological screenings and interventions during pregnancy.

摘要：
■COVID-19大流行影响了孕妇的身心。这项研究是为了评估，COVID-19大流行对妊娠期精神症状的影响，并与非孕妇进行比较。
■在政府进行了一项观察性研究。医学院和医院，乌蒂（Udhagamandalam）。使用经过验证的爱丁堡抑郁量表来筛查心理健康状况。分类变量采用卡方检验分析，连续变量采用独立t检验分析。进行了Pearson的相关分析，以检查爱丁堡产后抑郁评分与人口学特征的关联。进行配对t检验以发现基线和研究结论访视时EPDS评分的差异。进行回归分析以预测结果变量。
■孕妇组的爱丁堡抑郁评分明显较高，（12.48±3.753vs.8.00±2.436；p值=0.001；95%CI3.340-5.627），与非孕妇相比(12.90±3.731vs.9.20±2.973；p值=0.001；95%CI2.480-4.920）。研究结论访视时的爱丁堡抑郁评分具有统计学意义，(11.05±3.839vs.10.24±3.872；p值=0.008；95%CI-1.40至-0.213）。教育,收入,婚姻的持续时间,身体质量指数,和自杀意念是本研究中确定的导致孕妇抑郁的一些预测因素。
■研究结果表明，孕妇的抑郁症状在临床上显着增加。建议包括怀孕期间的常规心理筛查和干预措施。
