The objective of this pilot study was to assess the sensitivity, specificity, and power to predict onset of PTSD symptoms at 1 and 4\u00a0months using a routine screening program in comparison to current ad hoc referral practice.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Prospective cross-sectional observational study of a sample of hospitalized trauma patients over a four-month period from a level-I hospital in Canada. Baseline assessments of acute stress (ASD) and subsyndromal ASD (SASD) were measured using the Stanford Acute Stress Reaction Questionnaire (SASRQ). In-hospital psychiatric consultations were identified from patient discharge summaries. PTSD symptoms were measured using the PTSD Checklist-Specific (PCL-S). Post-discharge health status and health services utilization surveys were also collected.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Routine screening using the ASD (0.43) and SASD (0.64) diagnoses were more sensitive to PTSD symptoms at one month in comparison to ad hoc referral (0.14) and also at four months (0.17, 0.33 versus 0.17). Ad hoc referral had greater positive predictive power in identifying PTSD caseness at 1\u00a0month (0.50) in comparison to the ASD (0.46) and SASD (0.43) diagnoses and also at 4\u00a0months (0.67 versus 0.25 and 0.29).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ad hoc psychiatric referral process for acute stress is a more conservative approach than employing routine screening for identifying persons who are at risk of psychological morbidity following injury. Despite known limitations of available measures, routine patient screening would increase identification of trauma survivors at risk of mental health sequelae and better position trauma centers to respond to the circumstances that affect mental health during recovery.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1752-2897-8-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,5]],"date-time":"2014-05-05T23:55:49Z","timestamp":1399334149000},"update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Routine versus ad hoc screening for acute stress following injury: who would benefit and what are the opportunities for prevention"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Nathaniel","family":"Bell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Boris","family":"Sobolev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stephen","family":"Anderson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert","family":"Hewko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Richard K","family":"Simons","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"77_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"923","DOI":"10.4088\/JCP.v69n0606","volume":"69","author":"RA Bryant","year":"2008","unstructured":"Bryant RA, Creamer M, O\u2019Donnell ML, Silove D, McFarlane AC: A multisite study of the capacity of acute stress disorder diagnosis to predict posttraumatic stress disorder.
