Post-Traumatic Stress Outcomes in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Survivors

Abstract: Purpose-A large body of evidence suggests that being diagnosed with and treated for cancer adversely affects functioning and quality of life, yet less is known about longer term outcomes. Therefore, this study aims to estimate the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in survivors of adult non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) who are at least 2 years postdiagnosis and identify the risk factors associated with PTSD symptoms, with a focus on those that are amenable for screening and modifiable.Pat… Show more

“…Moderate to high levels of fear associated with concerns of disease recurrence were noted in 56% of Dutch BC survivors (Deimling et al, 2006). Other studies have focussed on particular predictive factors for PTSD, including effects of negative stressors like young age at diagnosis (Andrykowski et al, 2000;Andrykowski et al, 1998), lower socio economic status (Cordova et al, 2001), low educational achievement (Cordova et al, 2001;Chang et al, 2014), emotional social environment (Tjemsland et al, 1998), poor social support and reduced physical activity (Smith et al, 2008). The above mentioned factors are commonly predictive of PTSD after BC diagnosis.…”

“…Many studies have highlighted that the effects and psychological Kangas et al, 2002 Conception and empirical review Gurevich et al, 2002 review report Knobf., 2007 Review study PTG review Study Design Tedeschi and Calhoun, 2004 Review article Tedeschi & Calhoun., 1996 Review article, PTGI study PTSD & PTG review Study Design Koutrouli et al, 2012 Systematic Review Sumalla et al, 2009Review Jones., 2001 Perspective review symptoms of cancer treatment could be long lasting and widespread (Andrykowski et al, 2000;Amir and Ramati, 2002). As a consequence, early diagnosis and timely psychological intervention is necessary for those at risk of PTSD and could help to curtail symptoms (Amir and Ramati, 2002;Smith et al, 2008;Perez et al, 2014). It is clear that BC diagnosis is a trigger for the development of numerous traumatic psychological reactions for the patient (Kangas et al, 2002).…”

“…In 17% of the patients signs of PTSD were revealed, and between fear of recurrence and PTSD statistically significant correlations were found. The study of S.Smith (2008) [69] in 7.9% of patients with nonHodgkin's lymphomas showed full compliance with the criteria for PTSD, and a further 9.1% -partially. Risk factors independently associated with PTSD, were lack of social support, negative evaluation of prospects in life and intensive care, and positive -employment and availability of insurance.…”

“…P.Davidson (1964) [71] described a case, showing a development of conversion disorders (stuttering) within hystero-depressive adjustment disorder in a Hodgkin's disease patient. T.Sasaki et al (2000) [3] gave their own data on the frequency of depressive adjustment disorders in 39 (8%) of patients with leukemia, and point out that, according to different authors, the prevalence of these disorders is between 20 and 40% [66][67][68][69] .…”
