Abstract

Abstract Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after traumatic birth can have a debilitating effect on parents already adapting to significant life changes during the post-partum period. Cognitive therapy for PTSD (CT-PTSD) is a highly effective psychological therapy for PTSD which is recommended in the NICE guidelines (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, 2018) as a first-line intervention for PTSD. In this paper, we provide guidance on how to deliver CT-PTSD for birth-related trauma and baby loss and how to address common cognitive themes. Key learning aims (1) To recognise and understand the development of PTSD following childbirth and baby loss. (2) To understand how Ehlers and Clark’s (2000) cognitive model of PTSD can be applied to post-partum PTSD. (3) To be able to apply cognitive therapy for PTSD to patients with perinatal PTSD, including traumatic baby loss through miscarriage or birth. (4) To discover common personal meanings associated with birth trauma and baby loss and the steps to update them.

产后创伤和婴儿丢失后PTSD的认知治疗:临床考虑

创伤性分娩后的创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)会对已经适应产后重大生活变化的父母产生不利影响。创伤后应激障碍认知疗法(CT-PTSD)是一种非常有效的创伤后应激障碍心理治疗方法，在NICE指南(国家健康与护理卓越研究所，2018年)中被推荐为创伤后应激障碍的一线干预措施。在本文中，我们提供了如何提供CT-PTSD分娩相关的创伤和婴儿损失，以及如何解决共同的认知主题的指导。主要学习目标(1)认识和理解分娩和失去婴儿后PTSD的发展。(2)了解Ehlers和Clark(2000)的PTSD认知模型如何应用于产后PTSD。(3)能够将PTSD的认知疗法应用于围产期PTSD患者，包括因流产或分娩而导致的创伤性婴儿丢失。(4)发现与分娩创伤和婴儿丧失相关的常见个人含义以及更新它们的步骤。
