  • Title: [Treating psychic traumas: a psychiatric emergency].
    Author: Darves-Bornoz JM, Berger C, Degiovanni A, Soutoul JH, Gaillard P.
    Journal: Ann Med Psychol (Paris); 1994 Nov; 152(9):649-52. PubMed ID: 7825794.
    Abstract:
    Interest for the psychopathological field of trauma has experienced a revival over the last fifteen years. Early and active treatment of victims is necessary to attenuate the psychopathological consequences of trauma. However, emergency psychiatry still rarely places a high value on it. This paper presents a case which contains in itself many aspects of psychological responses to psychologically traumatizing events. Trauma induced in this case, in particular, Dissociative Disorders (including a Dissociative Fugue), a Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Somatoform Disorders and Phobic Disorders. This case gives us the opportunity to situate the psychiatric emergency--"psychological trauma"--and to illustrate our talk with regard to the principles of mid-term and emergency treatment of victims.
