Key Points

  • The aim is to explore the feasibility of trauma-focused treatments for PTSD in adults with acquired brain injury and to highlight areas for improvement.
  • Consensus gathering among clinicians
  • Review of trauma-focused treatment adaptations
  • Evaluation of PTSD assessment tools
  • Clinicians found that trauma-focused treatments are viable for adults with ABI with necessary adaptations.

  • Findings suggest a need for systematic evaluation of treatment adaptations and their adverse effects.

Abstract

Clinicians agreed that trauma-focused treatments can be feasible for adults with ABI when adaptations are applied on a case-by-case basis. The study also highlights uncertainty regarding PTSD assessment tools and the need for systematic evaluation of treatment adaptations and adverse effects. These practitioner-informed findings provide direction for clinical practice and guideline refinement.
