9 PTSD and pregnancy How is it different? How common is it? What are the effects of PTSD on outcome?
10 Incidence and Prevalence in pregnancy Limited research on this important, under studied population Lifetime prevalence of PTSD in women: 10 percent of women will receive a diagnosis of PTSD in their lifetime (Breslau et al., 1998) Approximately 13 million women If untreated, many will experience symptoms for years
11 Types of pregnancy related PTSD Preexisting PTSD PTSD caused by pre-pregnancy history of trauma Pregnancy onset PTSD Trauma that occurs during the pregnancy Birthing Trauma Postpartum PTSD caused by traumatic labor and delivery experiences 3% of women (Alcorn et al, 2010) 1-2%(Stamrood et al., 2011)
12 Effects of PTSD on pregnancy outcome Reduction in mean birth weight (Seng et al., 2011) Shorter gestation (Seng et al., 2011) Negative effects on maternal self care and infant emotional and cognitive development (Murray, 1992) Maternal attachment difficulty
13 Course of PTSD in pregnancy Higher rates of suicidal thoughts and psychiatric comorbidity in pregnant versus non pregnant women with PTSD (Smith et al., 2006) Of women who developed PTSD following a stillbirth, Symptoms generally resolved naturally by 1 year postpartum, (Turton et al., 2001)
14 PTSD risk factors What relevant history should I be aware of?
15 General risk factors for PTSD Berwin et al, 2000 Meta-analysis Being female Experiencing intense or long-lasting trauma Having experienced multiple traumas Having other mental health problems, such as anxiety or depression Lacking a good support system of family and friends Having first-degree relatives with mental health problems, including PTSD Having first-degree relatives with depression Having been abused or neglected as a child
16 Pregnancy specific risk factors previous history of childhood trauma (Seng et al., 2011), sexual trauma, (Hamama, et al., 2010), previous history of spontaneous or elective abortion that was perceived as traumatic (Hamama, et al., 2010), the experience of a stillbirth during a previous pregnancy, (Turton, et al., 2001). Becoming pregnant within a year of a previous stillbirth (Turton, et al., 2001). Preeclampsia and preterm premature rupture of membranes (Stamrood et al., 2011). Depressive symptoms during pregnancy (Stamrood et al., 2011) Death of infant during the postpartum period (Stamrood et al., 2011)
17 Prevalence of PTSD related to childbirth (Stamrood et al., 2011)
18 Factors contributing to birthing trauma Creedy et al., 2000
19 PTSD Warning Signs What should I look for in my patients?
20 20 Warning Signs Dissociation Isolation Not engaging in basic self care Preexisting mental health conditions Part of a vulnerable group Lacking social support
21 What your patient may report Cognitive I don t care about going to therapy anymore. Nothing is working out for me. I am never going to get better. No one cares about me or what I do. What s the point of going on? I m feeling a little down. This must mean that I am going to fall into a deep depression again. Emotional Everyone is getting on my nerves lately. I just don t feel happy, even when I am around people that I know I love. I am beginning to feel really jumpy and on edge. My mood keeps changing rapidly. In minutes, I can go from feeling really happy to really down or terrified. Behavioral I just don t have the energy to take care of myself in the morning. I haven t showered for days. I don t want to be around people anymore. I ve been isolating myself. I ve been drinking more, but just to take the edge off of my feelings a little. I ve noticed that I am less talkative than I used to be.
22 My patient has experienced a trauma What now?
23 Time 23 Trauma Event 0-3 days Phase 1: Psychological First Aid Provide for Basic Needs Evaluate & Assess 3-30 days Phase 2: Intermediate Support Anxiety Management using CBT Refer for PTSD Assessment days Phase 3: PTSD treatment options Continuation of CBT and Anxiety Management Initiate Exposure Based Treatments
24 Psychological First Aid Tasks Contact and engagement Safety and comfort Stabilization (if necessary) Information gathering: Current Needs and Concerns; Risk Factors Practical assistance Shelter, Support, Med Connection with social supports Information on coping Linkage with collaborative services
25 Exposure Therapy PTSD as a disorder of avoidance Intervention based on helping people confront feared objects, situations, memories, and images in the absence of feared consequences Promotes learning Decreases debilitating avoidance and emotion EBT s for PTSD Prolonged Exposure Cognitive Processing Therapy
26 Prolonged Exposure 9-12 weekly sessions Education about common reactions to trauma Safe exposure to trauma triggers and memories In vivo exposure: Confronting safe traumarelated situations between sessions Imaginal exposure: Revisiting trauma memories in session and listening to the audio recorded revisiting between sessions
27 Cognitive Processing Therapy Manualized trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy for PTSD Originally developed in 1988 to treat rape survivors Protocol is 12 sessions 60 min sessions for individual therapy 90 minute group sessions Can be done with (CPT) or without (CPT-C) a trauma account with similar effects at post treatment (Resick et al., 2008) Goal: To gain and understanding of and modify the meaning attributed to the traumatic experience
28 PE versus CPT (Resik et al., 2007)
29 Exposure treatments during pregnancy Women with PTSD postpartum should be referred to psychotherapy, and be offered treatment during subsequent pregnancy (Turton et al. 2001) Case study research has indicated no adverse effects of Prolonged Exposure treatment on pregnant women, developing fetus, or infant (Twohig & O Donohue, 2007). Therapist required signed letter from OB/GYN to proceed with treatment (Twohig & O Donohue, 2007).
30 Best practices for PTSD in pregnancy
31 For all patients Monitoring mood symptoms throughout the course of the pregnancy Staying aware of any changes in patient s ability or motivation to care for herself Inquiring about relevant trauma history on intake
32 Following still birth and pregnancy loss Encouraging mothers to see and hold their stillborn infant has been associated with increased incidence of PTSD and depression in the mother following the birth (Hughes et al., 2002). Having a funeral and keeping mementos were not associated with averse outcome (Hughes et al., 2002). Helping women to engage their crisis support network was associated with increased resilience following a pregnancy loss (Englehard et al., 2003).
33 PTSD during pregnancy Provide referral for patients to obtain counseling and or additional assessment if you suspect client may have PTSD There is no data showing averse effects of engaging in EBT for PTSD during pregnancy, and benefits likely outweigh any risks Collaboration between health care provider and psychotherapist is encouraged In situations requiring a high level of obstetric intervention, encourage patient involvement in decision making process and help patient to engage social support network.
