“…However, their control group seemed to receive only medical emergency care, which might be comparable to the standard care of Resnick et al (2007) and Miller et al (2015). The two pilot EMDR studies (Tarquinio, Brennstuhl, Reichenbach, Rydberg, & Tarquinio, 2012a;Tarquinio, Schmitt, Tarquinio, Rydberg, & Spitz, 2012b) did not contain a control group and Echeburúa, de Corral, Sarasua, and Zubizarreta (1996) compared two interventions.…”

“…Miller et al (2015), Resnick et al (2007) and Rothbaum et al (2012) used the PTSD Symptom Scale (PSS) for the DSM-IV and Echeburúa et al (1996) used the PSS for the DSM-III-Revised (DSM-III-R). Two studies (Tarquinio et al, 2012a(Tarquinio et al, , 2012b) used the Impact of Events Scale (IES; Horowitz, Wilner, & Alvarez, 1979), which is a self-report measure of posttrauma intrusions and avoidance symptoms. The hyperarousal dimension of PTSD is not tested in the IES.…”

“…Additionally, they reported that two participants who received the intervention showed an increase in clinician-reported PTSD symptom severity at some point during the trial, with one participant reporting higher PTSD symptom severity at the 12-month follow-up than at pretreatment. Due to this lack of safety data, we contacted the authors of the studies for further information and received additional information from Echeburúa et al (1996), Tarquinio et al (2012a), Tarquinio et al (2012b), andResnick et al (2007). Echeburúa et al (1996), Tarquinio et al (2012a), andTarquinio et al (2012b) stated not to have applied a predetermined strategy for the surveillance of harms.…”

Objective: To review the safety and efficacy of early interventions after sexual assault in reducing or preventing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).Method: Systematic searches were performed on studies (1980–2018) that examined the efficacy of interventions for PTSD within 3 months after sexual assault.Results: The review identified 7 studies (n = 350) with high risk of bias that investigated 5 interventions. Only two studies reported on safety. Contact with the authors of six studies provided no indications for the occurrence of adverse events. Two studies reported the efficacy using PTSD diagnosis as dependent variable but found no difference between groups. All studies reported on efficacy using PTSD severity as dependent variable. For the meta-analysis, 4 studies (n = 293) were included yielding significantly greater reductions of PTSD severity than standard care at 2 to 12 months follow-up (g = −0.23, 95% CI [−0.46, 0.00]), but not at 1 to 6 weeks post-intervention (g = −0.28, 95% CI [−0.57, 0.02]). The heterogeneity of the interventions precluded further analyses.Discussion: Findings suggest that early interventions can lead to durable effects on PTSD severity after sexual assault. However, due to limited availability of data, it is impossible to draw definite conclusions about safety and efficacy of early interventions, and their potential to prevent PTSD.

This pilot study compared two evidence-informed group treatment methods with 19 Spanish-speaking Latina survivors of domestic violence. Spanishspeaking therapists trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TFCBT) led the groups. Assessments of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in participants using the SPRINT instrument taken after psychoeducational preparation/prior to trauma processing, and at the end of treatment demonstrated improvement in participants in the EMDR groups and in the TFCBT groups with more reduction of PTSD symptoms in the EMDR groups, although the findings are limited by small sample size and so are not generalizable. The results suggest that there is a need for additional study both on the effectiveness of group treatment for this population and on the best evidence-based approaches.
