The symptoms and recognition of post-traumatic stress reactions.
The three most common clinical sequelae of trauma have been outlined above. However, the vast majority of cases will produce a normal reaction, which would not fulfil any of the diagnostic criteria. Overall, therefore, clinically significant traumatic responses are rare in the military environment, and for the most part short lived. For the conditions that are not self-limited, there are effective treatment options available which will be outlined later in this series.
