PTSD and Physical Health

March 20 @ 2:00 pm 3:00 pm

This lecture will provide a review of the physical health effects of traumatic exposure. Research findings from both civilian and military populations are featured. Dr. Schnurr will illustrate how a person’s reaction— posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) especially—mediates the effect of exposure and that there are plausible mechanisms through which PTSD could promote health. This presentation is meant to enhance the provider’s knowledge base regarding the effects of traumatic exposure/PTSD on mental and physical health.
