Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale

Assign the EPDS, collect patient responses, score, and review in one clinic workspace.

What is the EPDS?

The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is a widely used psychometric assessment in perinatal clinical practice. Clinics use it to collect structured patient responses that support clinical review and documentation.

Who uses the EPDS?

Clinicians in perinatal settings use the EPDS as part of intake, assessment, and outcome monitoring workflows. It provides structured evidence to support clinical judgement.

Why send the EPDS through Lirena?

  • Assign from the client profile in seconds
  • Send a patient-friendly completion link
  • Receive deterministic scoring output
  • Keep response detail attached to the record
  • Export for documentation or downstream systems

What does a reviewed EPDS record look like in Lirena?

After the patient completes the EPDS, Lirena returns scored responses to the client profile. Clinicians can review item-level responses, check the score summary, add notes, and export the record.
