Socio-demography and Depression Questionnaire

This was a mixed-method cross-sectional study that
involved pregnant women who attended antenatal care clinics, during the study
period March 2019 to June 2019.
Ethical approval was obtained from The Kenyatta National Hospital/University of
Nairobi Ethical and Research Committee (KNH/UoN-ERC Ref: P56/02/2018). The study took place in two public health
facilities in two urban
low-income settlements in Nairobi Kenya
Data were obtained from pregnant women by means of an
interview administered questionnaire. All women who came to the ANCs and were
queuing in the waiting room were approached to participate. The study purpose
was explained to them that participation was voluntary, and refusal to
participate will involve no penalty of benefits to which one is entitled at the
clinic. The participants were assured about their privacy and
confidentiality. After obtaining a written informed consent signed by the respondent
based on willingness to participate, the interview commenced.
