“…Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating mental disorder and a public health problem (Ishimura et al, 2015;Bovin et al, 2015). The lifetime prevalence of PTSD is 3.5 to 9.2% among persons exposed to PTE, and PTSD may become chronic in as many as 42% of individuals who develop the illness (Spinhoven et al, 2014;Kilpatrick et al, 2017).…”

“…People with PTSD are more likely to have comorbidity with other mental disorders. High ranges of depression (21 to 94%) and anxiety (39 to 97%) have been found in persons with PTSD (Ginzburg et al, 2010;Bovin, et al, 2015). Substance-related disorders are also common (Souto de Castro Longo et al, 2020).…”

“…Decreased quality of life, diminished productive capacity and welfare dependency are only a few of the individual and social problems when an effective treatment is not available (Frueh et al, 2018). If untreated, PTSD contributes to substance abuse, job loss, and suicide (Tarrier, & Gregg, 2004;Bovin et al, 2015). When diagnosed in minorities, PTSD is often undertreated (Chang et al, 2017).…”

Specialized evidence-based clinics are available for psychological trauma treatment. Data from patients in these clinics must be analyzed in order to better understand this population. In this study, we described the sociodemographic and clinical profile of patients from an evidence-based, anxiety disorder treatment/research center, located in the metropolitan area of Puerto Rico: The Center for the study of Fear and Anxiety (known by its Spanish acronym, CETMA). We performed a secondary data analysis of CETMA database, with data from the multidimensional evaluation, performed at the initial screening interview. We identified 35 patients with a preliminary diagnosis of PTSD. Patients with PTSD were mostly women, between 19-30 years, single, employed, with a completed bachelor’s degree. Also, they had 2-4 diagnoses, the most common comorbidity was generalized anxiety disorder. They reported a previous psychiatric history of PTSD, depression, and panic attacks. On average, patients received 1-15 therapeutic sessions. Findings highlight the need for educating and disseminating these services to the public, a population with an increased risk for PTSD.

BackgroundKetamine is a non-barbiturate general anesthetic commonly used in a variety of medical settings for pain and sedation. Its use in treatment for psychiatric illnesses has been increasing in recent years, showing promise in reducing depressive and suicidal symptoms in patients, particularly surgical patients. However, it has a history of association with schizophrenia-like and psychotomimetic symptoms following administration, particularly in patient populations with previous mental illness and youths.ObjectiveUsing a retrospective cohort study of patient records from a large health database, we sought to investigate psychiatric outcomes in age-specific cohorts following ketamine administration for orthopedic surgical anesthesia.MethodsThis was a retrospective analysis of the TriNetX health database. We identified all patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries with anesthesia. We then performed four total group analyses between cohorts of patients receiving ketamine and cohorts not receiving ketamine. We had three sets of analysis based on age stratification and one ageless: pediatric (<18 years), adult (18–60 years), elderly (>60 years), and a reference analysis of all patients.ResultsIn 406,384 patients studied, nearly every measured event displayed an increased risk for patients receiving ketamine as part of their anesthesia. Apart from anhedonia, which had a decreased risk of occurrence, every event displayed increased incidence in at least two of the cohorts. For all but one event, nicotine use, the significant differences between groups were in concordance with each other.ConclusionOur findings suggest ketamine use should be investigated further in different age groups and corresponding psychiatric outcomes.
