Patientin mit Symptomen einer posttraumatischen Belastung nach Intensivmedizin – ein Fallbericht der PICTURE-Studie
摘要
Background
Care in the intensive care unit (ICU) often introduces symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (post-ICU PTSD) in individuals with prior adverse experiences. General practitioners play an important role in follow-up care.
Case reportA 58-year-old woman developed post-ICU PTSD symptoms after she experienced sepsis. She received brief narrative exposure therapy (NET) from her general practitioner and experienced significant improvement of symptoms.
ConclusionA brief version of NET might be appropriate for the treatment of patients with mild to moderate post-ICU PTSD symptoms.
