Just-in-time adaptive ecological momentary assessment and ecological momentary interventions for posttraumatic psychopathology in the modern age of technology.

Objective: One technique for tailoring interventions and matching evidence-based procedures to idiographic problems is just-in-time adaptive approaches, also referred to as ecological momentary intervention. These technology-based approaches involve real-time delivery of evidence-based skills when most needed, which can be tailored to individual data inputs. The current article reviews just-in-time adaptive ecological momentary assessment (JITA-EMA; Schneider et al.

Bedside mental health risk screening of traumatic injury patients is enhanced by measurement of injury mechanism and social support.

Background: The American College of Surgeons now requires mental health screening and follow up for hospitalized patients in trauma centers. National estimates indicate that 20-40 % of these patients will develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or depression within one year post-injury. Research has identified brief bedside screens that predict PTSD and depression post-discharge, such as the Injured Trauma Survivor Screen and Peritraumatic Distress Inventory.

The Effects of a Stepped-Care Mental Health Program on Trauma Recidivism at a Level 1 Trauma Center.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the effects of a stepped-care mental health program (TRRP) on trauma recidivism at a single institution.

Designs: Retrospective review.

Setting: Single level 1 trauma center.

Hybrid 1 randomized controlled trial of an integrated stepped-care mental health intervention for traumatic injury patients.

Background: Annually, nearly 3 million individuals in the US are hospitalized after experiencing a traumatic injury (e.g., serious automobile crash, gunshot wound, stab injury).

Pilot of a text messaging system to monitor caregivers' and children's mental health recovery after pediatric traumatic injury.

Objective: Pediatric traumatic injury (PTI) is associated with a high risk for psychiatric sequelae. Most trauma centers do not adequately address the emotional needs of children and their caregivers. Technology-based programs offer a low-cost and low-burden opportunity to track and potentially enhance families' emotional recovery following PTI.
