This presentation will discuss the important intersection between these two causes of disease burden. It will identify the wide range of emotional disorders that develop following injury, and the long term trajectory of these disorders. It will briefly examine the impact of the DSM and ICD changes in the diagnostic criteria for PTSD. It will discuss the contribution that emotional disorder plays in the development of long term disability after injury. Finally it will present psychological interventions designed to target early presentations of mental health problems to prevent the development of long-term disability.
