Identification of depression and anxiety during pregnancy: A systematic review and meta-analysis of test accuracy.

Introduction: Depression and anxiety are significant contributors to maternal perinatal morbidity and a range of negative child outcomes.

Material And Methods: On January 16, 2023, we searched 10 databases (CINAHL, Cochrane Library, CRD Database, Embase, Epistemonikos, International HTA Database, KSR Evidence, Ovid MEDLINE, PROSPERO and PsycINFO); the references of included studies were also screened.

Meeting own needs and supporting ability to care: Family caregivers' and health care professionals' perspectives on professional support provided through a potential mobile application.

Background: A majority of persons with dementia in Sweden live in their own homes and are often cared for by family members. Caring for a family member may be a positive experience.

Childrens' and young adults' perspectives of having a parent with dementia diagnosis: A scoping review.

Care of family caregivers of persons with dementia (CaFCa) through a tailor-made mobile app: study protocol of a complex intervention study.

Background: Globally, family members account for the main source of caregiving of persons with dementia living at home. Providing care to family members with dementia often has negative health consequences for caregivers such as stress, depression and low quality of life. Yet, formal support for family caregivers (FCs) is limited.

Caring for older people with dementia reliving past trauma.

Background: The occurrence of behavioural changes and problems, and degree of paranoid thoughts, are significantly higher among people who have experienced extreme trauma such as during the Holocaust. People with dementia and traumatic past experiences may have flashbacks reminding them of these experiences, which is of relevance in caring situations. In nursing homes for people with dementia, nursing assistants are often the group of staff who provide help with personal needs.

Experiences of home care assistants providing social care to older people: A context in transition.

Aim: The aim was to describe home care assistants' (HCA) experiences of providing social care in older people's own homes.

However, the frontline workforce faces major challenges in meeting these needs, including a lack of trained professionals entering the field.

District nurses' perspectives on detecting mental health problems and promoting mental health among community-dwelling seniors with multimorbidity.

Aims And Objectives: To describe district nurses' perspectives on detecting mental health problems and promoting mental health among homebound older people with multimorbidity.

Background: Mental health problems among older people with multiple chronic conditions, that is, multimorbidity, are challenging issues. These patients' homes often serve as arenas in which district nurses can promote health.

Home care assistants' perspectives on detecting mental health problems and promoting mental health among community-dwelling seniors with multimorbidity.

Introduction: Elderly people with multiple chronic conditions, or multimorbidity, are at risk of developing poor mental health. These seniors often remain in their homes with support from home care assistants (HCAs). Mental health promotion by HCAs needs to be studied further because they may be among the first to observe changes in clients' mental health status.

Mental health-promoting dialogues from the perspective of community-dwelling seniors with multimorbidity.

Mental health promotion needs to be studied more deeply within the context of primary care, because persons with multiple chronic conditions are at risk of developing poor mental health. In order to make progress in the understanding of mental health promotion, the aim of this study was to describe the experiences of health-promoting dialogues from the perspective of community-dwelling seniors with multimorbidity - what these seniors believe is important for achieving a dialogue that may promote their mental health. Seven interviews with six women and one man, aged 83-96 years, were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.

How community-dwelling seniors with multimorbidity conceive the concept of mental health and factors that may influence it: a phenomenographic study.

Multimorbidity, that is, the coexistence of chronic diseases, is associated with mental health issues among elderly people. In Sweden, seniors with multimorbidity often live at home and receive care from nursing aides and district nurses. The aim of this study was to describe the variation in how community-dwelling seniors with multimorbidity perceive the concept of mental health and what may influence it.
