Psychiatry related information on Stress Disorders, Traumatic, Acute

METHODS: A sample of 56 moderately injured accident victims was screened retrospectively for acute (Peritraumatic Dissociative Experiences Questionnaire; Acute Stress Disorder Scale) and for current PTSD symptoms (Impact of Event Scale) approximately 1 year postaccident [1].
The clinical features of the disorder that distinguish it from disorders such as major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and acute stress disorder are described [2].

High impact information on Stress Disorders, Traumatic, Acute

Acute stress disorder, alcohol use, and perception of safety among hospital staff after the sniper attacks [3].
This study examined retrieval inhibition using the list method of the directed forgetting paradigm in traumatized individuals with acute stress disorder (ASD; n = 14), no ASD (n = 14), and a nontraumatized control group (n = 15) [4].
CONCLUSIONS: Early treatment of acute stress disorder with either imipramine or fluoxetine is often able to reduce its symptoms [5].
Risperidone in the treatment of acute stress disorder in physically traumatized in-patients [6].

Gene context of Stress Disorders, Traumatic, Acute

This study investigated acutely traumatized participants with either acute stress disorder (ASD; n = 15) or no ASD (n = 14) and nontraumatized comparison participants (n = 16) [7].
