“…Studies have employed a wide range of follow-up time points, and PTSD rates have ranged from 4% to 40%. Parent PTSD symptoms have been documented after disasters or terrorist attacks (Jones, Ribbe, Cunningham, & Weddle, 2002;Koplewicz, 2002;Stuber et al, 2002), but the most prolific literature in this area concerns parents' traumatic stress in association with pediatric medical events, including cancer (Kazak et al, 1998;Manne, Du Hamel, Gallelli, Sorgen, & Redd, 1998), burns (Hall et al, 2006), injury (B. Bryant et al, 2004;DeVries et al, 1999), intensive care admission (Balluffi et al, 2004;Bronner, Knoester, Bos, Last, & Grootenhuis, 2008), organ transplantation (Young et al, 2003), asthma (Kean, Kelsay, Wamboldt, & Wamboldt, 2006), and diabetes (Landolt, Vollrath, Laimbacher, Gnehm, & Sennhauser, 2005).…”
