Results of the pilot study
Compliance rate of 47.9% (n=333) Between family medicine and pediatric providers, there was no difference in screening rates or positive screening results Overall positive screen rate of 4.5%

Next steps after pilot Because PHQ-9 was available in the electronic medical record, switch was made from EPDS in 2010 AAP recommends EPDS Continued screening at the pilot site clinics since 2009 All Mayo Clinic primary care sites in Rochester area will implement PPD screening For all Mayo Clinic sites, the following current recommendation is: Consider doing this screening using PHQ-9 when resources for follow up are available at all well visits up to 12 months of age
