Tidlig indsats til forebyggelse af posttraumatisk belastningsreaktion hos börn og unge på hospitalet
Sammanfattning
International studies have shown that a significant number of children and adolescents are exposed to potentially traumatic events. Many of these children and
adolescents, some of whom will experience post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), are submitted to health-care departments shortly after exposure. In this article the concept
of trauma-informed health care is introduced in a Danish context. The most recent empirical literature on early preventive interventions is reviewed, and principles for best
practice and recommendations for future policy and research are presented.
