Achtergrond van het onderzoek
In this trial the efficacy of Rational Rehabilitation (RR) in the treatment of patients with a Posttraumatic stress-
disorder (PTSD) lasting longer than half a year, is studied.
PTSD is a serious common illness, often lasting for many years. Especially chronic PTSD is still in need of effective therapies.
RR is a cognitive behaviour therapy, consisting of nine sessions at most and lasting about three months.
Efficacy of RR is primarily expressed in terms of symptoms of PTSD and secondary in terms of general psychic complaints, quality of life, autonomy, social support and need for further treatment.
Doel van het onderzoek
Rational Rehabilitation (RR) is effective in the treatment of patients with Posttraumatic stress-disorder.
