Background: This study was to investigate the effect of 8-weeks medical exercise therapy on ankle pain, range of motion, stress symptom after traumatic injury, and depression, in a 51 years old stroke patient with right ankle joint inflammation. Method: The 8-weeks medical exercise therapy program was applied to 4 grades of Dosage 1 (1-3 weeks), Dosage 2 (4-5 weeks), Dosage 3 (6-7 weeks), and Dosage 4 (8 weeks) on right ankle joint inflammation in a female with right hemiplegia admitted to D hospital located in Gyeonggi-do. Result: The findings showed that visual analogue scale (VAS) scores improved from 8 to 0-1 scores, passive range of motion (ROM) increased to 5 degrees more than before, Korean-version impact of event scale-revised (IES-R-K) scores increased from 61 to 31 scores, and Korean-version beck depression inventory II (BDI-II-K) scores decreased from 51 to 17 scores. As such, the 8-week medical exercise therapy program may decrease the pain, increase ROM, improve stress after traumatic injury, and improve depression symptom. Conclusion: The presented evidence suggests that exercise and physical activity have beneficial effects on depression symptoms. It is possible to apply the medical exercise therapy for modulating pain experience and treating pain. Also, it may be effective methods to treat the psychological aspects of pain.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop and test a model for posttraumatic growth among cured patients with COVID-19. This model was based on Calhoun and Tedeschi's Posttraumatic Growth model and a literature review. Methods: The participants comprised 223 patients cured from COVID-19 who were ≥ 19 years of age. The data were collected through an online questionnaire from March 21 to 24, 2022. The assessment tools included the Impact of Event Scale: Revised Korean version, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, the Distress Disclosure Index, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, the Korean version of the Event-related Rumination Inventory, and the Korean version of the Post-traumatic Growth Inventory. Data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS version 24.0 and IBM AMOS 26.0. Results: The modified model showed appropriate goodness of fit (χ² = 369.90, χ² /degree of freedom = 2.09, SRMR = .09, RMESA = .07, CFI = .94, TLI = .93). The post-traumatic growth of cured patients with COVID-19 was explained through distress perception, self-disclosure, and deliberate rumination, with the explanatory power being 70.0%. Conclusion: This study suggests preparing a disaster psychology program involving experts who can activate deliberate rumination is necessary. Further, this study may serve as basic data for developing a program to enhance the post-traumatic growth of patients cured from COVID-19.

Objective : One of the aims of this study was to confirm the relationship in firefighters who have a high risk of developing posttraumatic stress disorder. We also explored the mediation effects of resilience and posttraumatic growth (PTG) on the association between traumatic experiences and posttraumatic stress symptoms. Methods : A total of 677 firefighters were assessed in terms of the intensity of job-related traumatic experiences using the Visual Analogue Scale. They completed the Korean version of the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), the Korean version of the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), and the Korean version of the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10). Results : The intensity of traumatic experiences was significantly negatively related to the CD-RISC-10 score, but it was positively related to the PTGI and the IES-R scores. The CD-RISC-10 score had a significantly positive correlation with the PTGI score, but it was negatively correlated to the IES-R score. Path analyses revealed that resilience and PTG independently mediated the association between traumatic experiences and posttraumatic stress symptoms. Conclusion : These results suggest that traumatic experiences contribute to posttraumatic stress symptoms and that these impacts may be mediated through resilience and PTG.

Objective : The PTSD Checklist (PCL) is a self-report screen for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) that can be scored for both diagnostic assessment and symptom severity measurement. The most recent revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) contains a number of changes to the definition of PTSD, and the aim of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Korean version of the PCL for the DSM-5 (PCL-5-K). Methods : The participants were 204 Korean veterans of the Vietnam War who completed the PCL-5-K, the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE), PTSD module of Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5, Research Version (SCID5-RV PTSD module), Korean version of Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R-K) and Combat Exposure Scale (CES-K). Results : The PCL-5-K demonstrated good internal consistency (${\alpha}=0.972$) and test-retest reliability (r=0.96); the suggested cut-off score for PTSD diagnosis was ${\geq}37$ with 0.88 sensitivity and 0.96 specificity. The PCL-5-K scale correlated highly with the IES-R-K and CES-K. Factor analysis identified only one factor. Conclusion : Among elderly Korean veterans of the Vietnam War, the PCL-5-K demonstrated similar psychometric qualities to those of both the original PCL and subsequent versions. It is expected that the PCL-5-K will be a useful PTSD screening tool.

Objectives This study was to investigate the correlation of low back pain, stress by event, and fear-avoidance beliefs caused by traffic accident. Methods We investigated 103 cases of out-patient with traffic accident. The patients answered that Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Impact of Event Scale Revised Korean Version (IES-R-K), and Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) on the first medical examination. We calculated statistical significance with this data. Results VAS, IES-R-K, and FABQ scores of the female patients with the traffic accident were higher than the male patients. VAS, IES-R-K, and FABQ scores showed low significant positive correlation and showed partial correlation between IES-R-K and FABQ, controlled by VAS, had no statistical significance in this research. Conclusions More considerations on pain, stress by event, and fear avoidance belief should be needed in treatment of the traffic accident patients.

Objective : Several earlier studies have reported similar symptoms in patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who have been repeatedly exposed to relevant media after disasters and trauma. This study aimed to examine the effects of indirect trauma experience through media rather than direct traumatic events on an individual's social life. Methods : Five hundred and fifty-four individuals participated in our online, self-reported questionnaire survey. All subjects were asked to complete a demographic questionnaire, Posttraumatic Diagnostic Scale, Beck Depression Inventory, the Impact of Event Scale-Revised, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Korean version of Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test, Patient Health Questionnaire-15, Suicidal Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised. Participants were assessed in regards to their experience of violent media exposure within the past three months. Results : Data from our study indicates that the group exposed to violent media had significantly higher perceived stress, physical symptoms, insomnia, and suicide ideation in comparison to the control group. Among the major symptoms of PTSD, the proportion of intrusion symptoms was relatively high in the media exposed group. Conclusion : This suggests that indirect trauma caused by media exposure could cause post-traumatic stress symptoms. The PTSD caused by indirect trauma may have slight differences from the PTSD caused by direct trauma. Therefore, it is necessary to understand, prevent, and control the adverse effects of media.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate into the effects of physical therapy intervention with local vibration on pain, ROM (range of motion) and psychological status in multiple trauma patients caused by traffic accident. Methods: A patient with multiple trauma were recruited. Before treatment, he was evaluated using numeric pain rating scale (NPRS), Korean-version impact of event scale-revised (IES-R-K), Beck Depression inventory (BDI), passive and active range of motion, and were reevaluated after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. Results: As a result of comparing the participant before and after the experiment, the score of the IES-R-K and BDI decreased. And the passive and active ROM increased. Conclusion: According to the results above, physical intervention with local vibration by Blackroll Releazer can help improve pain, physical function and psychological status. Also, physical intervention with Blackroll's Releazer technique was able to select interventions depending on the patient's conditional and the desired goal.

Background: In this study, the degree of anxiety, depression, and stress caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was identified, as well as the need for psychological prevention measures among medical students in the Daegu region that was designated the first special disaster area due to the spread of COVID-19. Methods: The subjects of this study were 318 medical students in Daegu who voluntarily participated in an online test using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Impact of Event Scale-Revised Korean version. As a result of the test, risk students received immediate telephone counseling, and the effect of this telephone counseling was analyzed. Results: There were no differences in depression, anxiety, or stress according to gender and grade. As a result of immediate telephone counseling for risk students, significant differences were found in depression, anxiety, and stress, and the counseling was found to be effective. Conclusion: For medical students who are easily exposed to stress, the importance of psychological prevention measures and effectiveness of non-face-to-face counseling should be recognized. In the field of medical education, we must do our best to build a system that can be used immediately at the appropriate time for these programs.

연구목적 복합 외상을 겪는 경우에는 PTSD의 증상을 넘어선 증상들이 다양하게 나타난다. 그러나 그러한 다양한 증상을 평가하는 도구가 부족한 실정이다. 외상 증상 체크리스트-40은 자기보고식 검사로 아동기 혹은 성인기의 외상 경험과 관련된 이러한 다양한 증상들을 측정하기 위한 도구로 원척도 연구에서 높은 신뢰도와 타당도가 검증된 검사 도구이다. 이번 연구의 목적은 정신건강의학과 외래 환자를 대상으로 한국판 외상 증상 체크리스트-40 (KTSC-40)의 타당도를 검증하기 위해 설계 되었다. 방 법 한양대학교 구리병원 정신건강의학과 외래를 진료 목적으로 방문한 367명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 환자들의 자기보고식 평가 자료를 사용하였으며 외상 증상 체크리스트-40 (TSC-40), 사건 충격척도 개정판(IES-revised), 일생 사건 체크리스트(LEC), Zung 자가평가 우울척도(Zung's Self-Rating Depression Scale), Zung 자가평가 불안척도(Zung's Self-Rating Anxiety Scale)를 이용하였다. 신뢰도는 내적 일치도(Cronbach's ${\alpha}$)로 산출하였고, 요인타당도는 Varimax 직각 회전을 이용한 탐색적 주성분 분석, 각 척도와의 수렴 및 공존 타당도를 위해서는 Spearman 상관분석을 하였다. 결 과 KTSC-40은 Varimax 직각회전을 이용한 주성분 요인 분석을 통해 7개의 요인을 추출하였고, 총 분산의 59.55%를 설명하였다. 이는 원척도 연구에서의 6개의 요인, 5개의 요인과 요인 수는 다르지만 그 내용은 비슷하였다. KTSC-40은 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ 값이 0.94로 높은 내적 일치도를 가졌다. 또한 다른 PTSD scale과 우울, 불안 척도와의 비교에서 높은 수렴 및 공존 타당도를 보였다. 결 론 KTSC-40의 정신측정학 성질을 조사하여 우수한 타당도를 보이는 것을 확인하였다. 다만, 요인 분석에서의 원척도와의 약간의 차이를 보였는데 이는 문화적인 요소와 외상 관련 질환이 아닌 정신건강의학과 환자군 등 이질적인 외래 구성 집단에 따른 것으로 보인다. 결과적으로 KTSC-40은 높은 타당도로 향 후 다양한 임상영역에서 외상과 관련된 증상들을 평가 하는데 유용할 것으로 예상된다.
