This is an exploratory study of the nature, course and rates of delayed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We reviewed 150 medical files of Israeli soldiers who sought help between 6 months and 5 years after the 1982 Lebanon War. Results indicated that only 10% of the cases were truly examples of delayed PTSD; in a large proportion of the cases, help-seeking rather than onset was delayed.
这是一项关于创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)延迟发作的性质、病程及发生率的探索性研究。我们查阅了1982年黎巴嫩战争后6个月至5年间寻求帮助的150名以色列士兵的医疗档案。结果表明,只有10%的病例是真正的延迟性PTSD;在很大一部分病例中,是寻求帮助的时间延迟了,而非发病延迟。
