Early Detection of Patients at Risk of Developing a Post-traumatic Stress

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric pathology noticed in the DSM-5, in troubles due to a traumatism or a stress factor and appearing at least 1 month after confrontation with trauma. This trouble can become chronic, and be the source of psychiatric and somatic comorbidities, which themselves have personal, professional and economic consequences at the level of the individual and society.

Some studies looked at the psychological effects induced by a stay in intensive care unit (ICU) since few years. The emergence of PTSD in these patients has been described, with an incidence varying from 4% to 60%.

The literature is contradictory about identified risk factors for PTSD. It's not possible to design a screening of these patients actually, only focused on the risk factors. It has been shown that the presence of acute stress trouble (presence of symptoms during the first month after the traumatism) was a risk factor for PTSD. Early detection of acute stress disorder could be a way to screen risk of emergence of a post-intensive care PTSD. Post-intensive care consultations have been done at 6 months, but not systematically. Only few symptoms are looked for and a sizable part of this population were not being followed probably due to a non-diagnosed-PTSD. In case of the emergence of a post-intensive care PTSD, those patients will never be diagnosed and treated, favoring all complications linked to this trouble.

Associated with other factors, IES-R (Impact Event Scale Revisited) at the ICU exit would permit an exhaustive screening of patients at risk for PTSD and could permit to propose them an adapted care and then limit the emergence of PTSD and its consequences..

In this study, the investigators will screen acute stress symptoms within 8 days following the ICU's exit, using the IES-R, in order to evaluate his ability to predict the emergence of a PTSD at three months. IES-R is an auto-questionnaire, easy and fast with good psychometrics capacities for PTSD.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
