ZusammenfassungKatastrophenpsychiatrie meint die psychiatrisch-psychologische Betreuung von Opfern, deren Angehörigen und den Helfern im Rahmen von Naturkatastrophen und durch Menschen verursachte Katastrophen (Krieg oder Terroranschlag). Diese Betreuung basiert auf dem Diagnose- und Behandlungskonzept der Posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung – Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) und der Akuten Stress Reaktion – Acute Stress Disorder (ASD). Während die PTSD eine gut validierte und mit effektiven Behandlungskonzepten ausgestattete Diagnose ist, fehlen diese Voraussetzungen bisher bei der ASD. Konsequenzen für das Konzept der Katastrophenpsychiatrie, Therapie und Prävention von Betroffenen und Helfern werden dargelegt.

Acute stress disorder, adjustment disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder are all psychiatric consequences of traumatic experiences. Because trauma is so common in medical practice, in the form of accidents, severe illness, and sometimes medical and surgical treatments, these disorders are commonly seen by physicians. An initial severe reaction to a traumatic event such as severe accident is an acute stress disorder and is commonly characterized by dissociation. A more long-lasting emotional reaction to ongoing stress such as a new diagnosis of life-threatening illness is termed an adjustment disorder. An often longer-lasting and more severe psychological reaction associated with repeated mental re-experiencing of the traumatic event is called post-traumatic stress disorder. These trauma-related disorders are not only an important cause of suffering but may also complicate medical care, hence they require recognition and appropriate treatment.

Post-traumatic stress disorder and acute stress disorder are mental health conditions with a known onset, and prevention strategies can therefore be used to try to prevent the emergence of the full-blown disorder. This chapter provides an overview of the current evidence-based prevention strategies for post-traumatic stress disorder and acute stress disorder. In the first part, diagnostic and epidemiological features of these disorders are considered. The second part of the chapter reviews the evidence base of current preventive psychological and pharmacological interventions. Although some early trials on primary intervention have shown promising effects, it appears too soon to provide any definite recommendation in clinical practice. Importantly, many current widely disseminated treatments lack evidence, and some interventions (for example, debriefing) may, in fact, have a negative impact on the natural recovery after trauma. This chapter highlights the importance of using science-driven interventions to prevent post-traumatic stress disorder and acute stress disorder.
