This research aimed to review and present evidence that could inform the practice guidelines, to identify gaps in knowledge, and to evaluate the strength of the existing evidence, both in general and specifically in relation to marginalised families and those from black and minority ethnic communities. Two separate questions were addressed by the review reported here and reviewed separately: what is known about the incidence, prevalence, and types of parental mental health problems in the UK?; and what systems, tools and opportunities exist in children's services, adults' services and family services for detecting parental mental health problems, in both the UK and elsewhere? How these are used, by whom and in which contexts? This appendix to the report contains details of the databases used, the search criteria, and literature used for the review.

The Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE) has commissioned two systematic reviews in the area of parental mental health and child welfare. The first will review evidence on the prevalence of mental health problems among parents and their detection in health, social care and children’s services. The second review is on the accessibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of interventions to support parents with mental health problems and their children. The reviews are part of a larger SCIE project, the aim of which is to publish practice guidelines in how mental health services (both for adults and for adolescents and children) and local authority children and family services can plan, deliver and evaluate their service to support parents with mental health problems and their children. The guidelines project is being carried out in partnership with the National Institute for Clinical Excellence, their National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health, and SCIE's Parental Mental Health and Child Welfare Network.
