description: | Cook discusses the paper by Dr. Sampson et al examining survey data from the Nurses' Health Study II in over 30,000 current or former female nurses ages 53-74 years old. This is one of the largest, most comprehensive reports of trauma, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom presence and severity, and related treatment in a national sample of middle-aged and older women in the US. Trauma exposure was common in this group (82.2%) and the prevalence of lifetime (10.5%) and past month PTSD (1.5%) were comparable to those in general population samples of women. One particularly striking finding was that over one-third of women with lifetime PTSD reported never receiving trauma-related mental health treatment, indicating a considerable treatment gap. |
