After a short existence in the DSM-IV and ICD-10, this nosological construct was excluded from newer versions of the mental disorders classifications. Therefore, an exploratory analysis of the PPD concept was considered useful both from clinical and theoretical perspectives. There is a high prevalence of depressive symptoms in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD) and, although not all of them represent cases of PPD, they are considered risk factors for suicide. The arguments and contra-arguments for/against PPD were reviewed, and the potential pharmacological interventions for this disorder were analyzed. The explored evidence indicates that PPD is worth further investigation, and in order to differentiate it from schizoaffective disorder, negative symptoms of SSD, or depressive manifestations within the acute psychotic episodes, clearly defined criteria should be found. The use of validated scales, like the Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia and the InterSePT Scale for Suicidal Thinking, is recommended for the initial assessment of depression and suicidal risk in patients with SSD, but also for their monitoring during the acute and maintenance phases. Besides the administration of combined, antidepressant and antipsychotic treatment, the use of clozapine, and the recommendation to initiate treatment for SSD with atypical antipsychotics whenever possible, there is a dearth of studies exploring specific interventions for PPD. Future studies are expected to address the validity of the nosological construct of PPD and the most adequate therapeutic and prophylactic interventions in patients with SSD.\"","PeriodicalId":21298,"journal":{"name":"Romanian Journal of Military Medicine","volume":"34 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139454957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system of evaluation developed consisted of 16 instruments that could help to determine the presence of negative psychological symptoms of servicemen related to their participation in hostilities.

Likewise, it is a useful and fast method to assess the effectiveness of short-term psychological recovery programs.

Almost all military personnel experience combat stress.

According to this theory, stress occurs when: central or key resources (health, well-being, family, self-esteem, and a sense of purpose and meaning in life) are threatened with loss, are lost, or cannot be retrieved following significant effort. Combat stress in military personnel can manifest itself in the form of negative manifestations of the psychological, physical, psychophysiological, and behavioral register. The most effective system for the prevention and control of combat stress among military personnel was developed in the US Army. Such a program should contain medical and psychological work activities carried out in three stages: preparatory (before performing combat missions), the stage of direct performance of tasks in the combat zone, and the final stage (after completing tasks upon returning to permanent deployment points).\"","PeriodicalId":21298,"journal":{"name":"Romanian Journal of Military Medicine","volume":"52 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139456312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
