Abstract

The psychophysiological substrate of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with deregulation of neural networks involving mind-body interaction and is the subject of considerable research. It has been managed using pharmacological treatment associated or not with complementary treatments. The aim of this study was to systematize the knowledge about the types and effectiveness of complementary treatments using somatic interventions in the PTSD setting. According to the revised literature, the complementary approaches are based on Somatic Experiencing ® , meditation and brainspotting techniques, and are anchored in the search for regulating the underlying neural mechanisms. However, there is little scientific production on these treatments, despite the positive clinical impact of their results, particularly for Somatic Experiencing ® , which has presented good results. For the authors, further controlled trials involving improvement of symptoms and their association with possible biological markers are necessary to corroborate the efficacy of this therapy.

创伤后应激障碍的躯体干预治疗的系统回顾:躯体体验®(SE®)是否有可能成为一个合适的选择?

创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)的心理生理基础与涉及身心相互作用的神经网络的失调有关，是大量研究的主题。它已经管理使用药物治疗相关或不与补充治疗。本研究的目的是系统化关于创伤后应激障碍设置中使用躯体干预的补充治疗的类型和有效性的知识。根据修订后的文献，补充方法是基于体细胞体验®，冥想和大脑定位技术，并锚定在寻找调节潜在的神经机制。然而，这些治疗方法的科学成果很少，尽管它们的结果产生了积极的临床影响，特别是对躯体体验®，它已经呈现出良好的效果。对于作者来说，需要进一步的对照试验，包括症状的改善及其与可能的生物标志物的关联，以证实这种治疗的疗效。
