Abstract
Background: Attention has recently focused on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Purpose: To examine characteristics of individuals with and without symptoms of PTSD following acute SCI. Methods: Data were collected on 23 patients (age, 34.5 ± 14.4 years) at a Level I trauma center (14.35 ± 18.48 days following injury). Results: There were 52.2% (n = 12) who experienced symptoms of PTSD post injury, with a significant association in patients with a history of psychological disorders (p = .0094). Conclusion: Findings suggest that patients with SCI who present with PTSD symptoms in the acute trauma care settting should be provided with specific cognitive behavioral interventions.
