Osnovni uzrok nastanka PTSP-a je izloženost iznimno stresnom događaju koji je izvan ljudskog uobičajenog iskustva u kojem su osobe životno ugrožene ili postoji opasnost od značajnijeg ozljeđivanja. Važnost ovog područja očituje se u podatku da značajan broj osoba tijekom života razvija simptome PTSP-a, smatra se oko 9% populacije. Tema je značajna zato što i u našoj državi značajan broj osoba boluje od PTSP-a. U radu će biti predstavljen povijesni kontekst poremećaja, njegovi uzroci, klinička slika, metode dijagnostika i liječenja. Najčešći simptomi PTSP-a su zaokupljenost traumatičnim događajem, nenamjerno i neželjeno prisjećanje traumatičnog događaja, strah, nesigurnost, anksioznost, noćne more povezane sa traumatičnim događajem, a što, uz ostalo, značajno negativno utječe na opće zdravlje i kvalitetu života bolesnika. Stoga je presudno pravovremeno provođenje dijagnostičkih i terapijskih postupaka i postizanje oporavka bolesnika u čemu aktivnu ulogu imaju i socijalni radnici. Kvaliteta života osobe koja pati od ovog poremećaja vidljiva je u njegovom ponašanju, reakcijama te u obavljanju svakodnevnih ili uobičajenih aktivnosti. Također će se navesti i aktivnosti socijalnog radnika koji svojim znanjima i kompetencijama aktivno sudjeluje u liječenju i oporavku oboljelih. Također se analizira i proces dijagnoze poremećaja te proces liječenja u kojem je prvi korak procjena tj. testiranje i kliničko intervjuiranje. Za dijagnosticiranje PTSP-a, jedan je od alata upitnik samoprocjene u kojemu su osobi postavljena pitanja koja navode do otkrića poremećaja kod pojedinca. Ukoliko je osobi dijagnosticiran PTSP kreće razmatranje lijekova, tj. koji bi lijekovi bili najučinkovitiji u procesu oporavka. U općem planu liječenja analiziramo i druge važne korake (emocionalna regulacija, izlaganje, itd.) u liječenju te njihovu ulogu u ukupnom procesu. U ovom radu se također upoznajemo sa ulogom socijalnog radnika u liječenju posttraumatskog stresnog poremećaja.
Abstract (english) In this overview, we will cover the topic of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD for short. The main cause of PTSD is being exposed to a severely stressful event outside of the regular human experience, in which there is a life-threatening experience or a chance for significant injury. The importance of this topic is shown by the fact that a substantial number of individuals develop symptoms of PTSD, a whopping 9% of the general population. This topic’s significance is also evident in the large number of individuals in our country who suffer from PTSD. Moreover, we will showcase the historical context, the causes of the disorder, the clinical picture as well as the diagnostic and treatment methods for this disorder. The most common causes of PTSD include being immersed in the traumatic event itself, unintentional and unwanted recall of the event, fear, insecurity, anxiety and nightmares connected with the traumatic event which, among other factors, significantly negatively impact the general well-being and quality of the patient’s life. For this reason it is of utmost importance to introduce diagnostic and therapeutic actions to ensure the recovery of the patient, in which social workers are actively involved. The quality of life of the person affected by this disorder is visible in their demeanor, reactions as well as in how they handle regular everyday activities. We will also cover the activities of the social worker who, using their acquired knowledge and competencies, actively participates in treatment and recovery. Furthermore, we analyzed the diagnostic process and the treatment process in which the first step is the evaluation through testing and clinical interviewing. One of the tools used for diagnosing PTSD is the Self-assessment Survey through which the individual is asked questions that lead to the discovery of the disorder. In case they are diagnosed with PTSD, we consider introducing medication most efficient for the recovery process. During the General Treatment Plan we also analyze other important steps (e.g. emotional regulation, exposure, etc.) in the treatment and the role of those steps in the entire process. To finalize, we introduce and elaborate on the impact a social worker makes in the treatment for PTSD.
