The King's Cross fire occurred at the end of the evening rush hour, on 18 November 1987. King's Cross station is within the department's health district and we felt a responsibility to respond to the psychological aftermath. The unique features of our intervention were the degree of inter agency coordination, the use of a systematic outreach and screening programme, the collection of psychotherapy outcome measures and the development of an ongoing clinic. The work represents a sustained attempt to assess the nature and prevalence of post-traumatic reactions and the most medically and economically effective form of intervention. In this paper we describe the way our team responded to the high level of psychological distress that we found, we present some preliminary results, outline two therapeutic trials, and refer to the longterm consequences for the work of our department.
国王十字车站火灾发生在1987年11月18日傍晚交通高峰期结束时。国王十字车站位于该部门的健康区内，我们感到有责任应对火灾带来的心理影响。我们干预措施的独特之处在于跨机构协调的程度、采用系统的外展和筛查计划、收集心理治疗效果评估数据以及设立一个持续运营的诊所。这项工作是为了持续评估创伤后反应的性质和普遍性以及最具医学和经济效益的干预形式。在本文中，我们描述了我们的团队应对所发现的高度心理困扰的方式，呈现了一些初步结果，概述了两项治疗试验，并提及了对我们部门工作的长期影响。
