The development of psychological and associated mental health disorders after road traffic crashes and other injuries by Anthony Joseph (3383735)

“…The incidence of PTSD in a number of well controlled studies has been reported at 10-25% but it has been reported to be less than 10% in other studies. In one large longitudinal study, where patients were followed up to 12 months after injury, 31% of patients had developed a psychiatric diagnosis at 12 months and 22% had a new psychiatric diagnosis. …”
