1	The Impact of Trauma on the Onset of Mental Health Symptoms, Aggression, and Criminal Behavior in an Inpatient Psychiatric Sample Stinson, Jill, Quinn, Megan, Levenson, Jill S. 01 November 2016 (has links) Experiences of trauma and maltreatment are frequent predictors of poor physical and mental health outcomes in adulthood. Existing literature also suggests an impact of developmental adversity on criminality and aggressive behavior, though little research exists describing the effects of cumulative adversity in forensic mental health samples. In the current study of 381 forensic mental health inpatients, rates of trauma, neglect, and parental substance abuse are reported in comparison with community norms. Cumulative adversity and the occurrence of foster care placement are examined via linear and logistic regression analyses in relation to age at first arrest, first psychiatric hospitalization, and onset of aggression, as well as history of suicide attempts and non-suicidal self-injury. Results revealed that experiences of developmental adversity were more common among participants than have been reported in community samples using the ACE survey, and that there were differential effects of gender on the prevalence of traumas experienced. Cumulative adversity scores were significantly associated with all outcomes, though the addition of foster care placement to the model significantly contributed to understanding outcomes, and in some cases, removed the effect of cumulative adversity. Implications and direction for future study are discussed. ACE study aggression childhood trauma forensic mental health Biostatistics and Epidemiology Public Health

3	Trauma-Informed Education Toolkit for Screening Pediatric Victims of Sexual Abuse and Maltreatment Lunde, Analena Michelle 01 January 2018 (has links) The complex challenges facing the sexual assault nurse examiners program in a midwest state are underreporting, late reporting, and poor coordination of care for pediatric victims of child maltreatment with sexual abuse. The main objective of this quality improvement project was the identification of necessary practice-related approaches to care to decrease barriers associated with reporting suspicions of abuse or neglect. An evidence-based, multidisciplinary assessment clinical toolkit that followed clinical components of trauma-sensitive, child-centered screenings triggering a coordinated response to conduct a forensic medical exam within 96 hours of the alleged incident was evaluated. During 3 rounds of surveys following the Delphi technique, 10 members of an expert panel agreed upon critical success indicators were used for the review and final decision for adoption of the toolkit. The final consensus obtained, with an intraclass correlation of 0.924 with a 95% confidence interval, supported implementation of this trauma-informed toolkit which would ensure that medical care and throughput through the system of care addressed the physical and mental needs of the patient and caregivers as well as improvement in the forensic investigative data collection. A child-centered, trauma-sensitive approach to screening and evaluation by healthcare professionals will help decrease the delay to evaluation and to curtail long-term adverse impacts on survivors. This family-based primary prevention effort is a framework for healthcare practitioners to use and includes strategies (i.e., health history, mental health evaluation, family dynamics evaluation) that are child and family centered contributing significantly to positive social change.
