Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
- THIS ASSIGNMENT HAS TWO VIDEOS. PICK ONLY TO ANSWER PLEASE ALL QUESTIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ONE VIDEO. I HAVE ATTACHED A TRANSCRIPT OF ONE VIDEO WITH SOME ARTICLES TO USE. Presentation Example: Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkSv_zPH-M4
- Briefly explain the neurobiological basis for PTSD illness.
- Discuss the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for PTSD and relate these criteria to the symptomology presented in the case study. Does the video case presentation provide sufficient information to derive a PTSD diagnosis? Justify your reasoning. Do you agree with the other diagnoses in the case presentation? Why or why not?
- Discuss one other psychotherapy treatment option for the client in this case study. Explain whether your treatment option is considered a “gold standard treatment†from a clinical practice guideline perspective, and why using gold standard, evidence-based treatments from clinical practice guidelines is important for psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners.
Support your Assignment with specific examples from this week’s media and at least three peer-reviewed, evidence-based sources. Explain why each of your supporting sources is considered scholarly. Attach the PDFs of your sources.
