Abstract:
Objective To explore the impact of trauma interventions using mindfulness based extinction and reconsolidation(TIMBER)on post-traumatic stress symptoms in rehabilitation patients with limb dysfunction after accidental trauma.Methods Convenient sampling was used to select 46 rehabilitation patients with limb dysfunction after accidental trauma(impact of event scale-revised,IES-R total score ≥33)admitted to Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital from March 2022 to May 2023.They were randomly divided into an intervention group(TIMBER intervention)and a control group(health education of knowledge about mental health).IES-R,Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS),and Self-Rating Scale of Sleep(SRSS)were employed to survey the participants before(T1),at the end of(T2),and 1 month after intervention(T3).The changes in post-traumatic stress symptoms,anxiety symptoms,depression symptoms,and sleep were compared between the 2 groups of patients.Results There were no statistically differences in demographic information and various psychological variables between the 2 groups at T1(P>0.05).The intervention group got their total and various dimensional scores of IES-R,and scores of anxiety,depression,and sleep at T2 and T3 significantly decreased when compared with these scores at T1(P<0.01),and all the scores at T2 and T3 were obviously lower in the intervention group than the control group(P<0.05).Compared with T1,the avoidance and intrusion scores and total IES-R score were declined in the control group at T2 and T3,with statistical significance(P<0.05),while no such differences were observed in the scores of high alertness,anxiety,depression,and sleep(P>0.05).Conclusion TIMBER significantly improves the post-traumatic stress symptoms,anxiety symptoms,depression symptoms,and sleep in rehabilitation patients with limb dysfunction after accidental trauma.
