Tratamiento del trastorno por estres postraumatico mediante la desensibilizacion por movimientos oculares Posttraumatic stress disorder treatment using eye movement desensitization
Description
Trastorno de estrés postraumático se caracteriza por síntomas intrusivos, comportamientos evitative, y un alto nivel de activación. Este trastorno aparece después de que la persona está expuesta a un acontecimiento traumático. Varias técnicas han sido utilizadas para hacer frente a este trastorno como la exposición, las inundaciones, la desensibilización, y otras técnicas para tratar la ansiedad. En este trabajo una nueva técnica cognitivo-conductual se propone. La desensibilización del movimiento del ojo se caracteriza por una fácil aplicación y resultados rápidos. Procedimiento, los posibles mecanismos de acción, y los estudios sobre su eficacia son revisados.
PTSD is characterised by intrusive symptoms, evitative behaviours, and a high level of activation. This disorder appears after the person is exposed to a traumatic event. Several techniques have been used to deal with this disorder such as exposure, flooding, desensitisation, and other techniques to treat anxiety. In this paper a new cognitive-behavioural technique is proposed. Eye Movement Desensitization is characterised by easy application and fast results. Procedure, possible mechanisms of action, and studies about its efficiency are reviewed.
