Abstract:
Posttraumatiskt stressyndrom är en komplex och mångdimensionell störning. Lyckligtvis finns det effektiva behandlingsmetoder. 1989 utvecklade Francine Shapiro metoden, sedermera namngiven, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), för behandling av traumatiska minnen. Det hävdas att mellan 84 – 100% som behandlats med EMDR inte längre uppfyller diagnoskriterierna för PTSD. Uppsatsens huvudsyfte är att göra en grundläggande granskning av EMDR och metodtillämpningen i Sverige. Datainsamling skedde genom litteraturgranskning, enkätundersökning samt intervjuer med EMDR-utbildade kliniker. Resultatet visar att EMDR är effektivare än ingen behandling alls eller icke-validerade behandlingsmetoder, såsom aktivt lyssnande. Det är däremot inte styrkt att EMDR är effektivare än KBT. Vidare antyder komponentstudier att ögonrörelsestimulering, eller alternativ bilateral stimulering, inte är nödvändig för att uppnå behandlingsframgångar. Samtliga intervjuade utövare upplever EMDR som ett värdefullt och verksamt verktyg i behandlingsarbetet. Diskussion förs kring resultaten från effektstudierna och nödvändigheten av fortsatt forskning.

Post-traumatic stress disorder is a complex, multidimensional disorder. Fortunately there are effective treatments. 1989 Developed Francine Shapiro method, later named, eye movement desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), for the treatment of traumatic memories. It is alleged that between 84 - 100% treated with EMDR are no longer meet diagnostic criteria for PTSD. The main purpose is to make a fundamental review of the EMDR method and application in Sweden. Using data obtained from literature review, survey and interviews with EMDR-trained clinicians. The results show that EMDR is more effective than no treatment or non-validated therapies, such as active listening. It is however not shown that EMDR is more effective than CBT. Further studies suggest component of eye movement stimulation, or alternative bilateral stimulation, it is not necessary to achieve treatment success. All interviewees experienced EMDR practitioners as a valuable and effective tool in the treatment process. Talk out of the result, from efficacy trials and the need for further research.

Language: English

Format: Journal

Abstract:
Objective: To explore the possibility of using eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) to treat women who have experienced post-traumatic stress after childbirth. Design: The pilot study consisted of a "before and after" treatment design combined with follow-up measurements 1-3 years after EMDR treatment. Quantitative data from questionnaires (Traumatic Event Scale [TES]) were collected. In addition, qualitative data from individual interviews with the participants were collected as well as data from the psychotherapist's treatment notes of the EMDR treatment sessions. Setting: The north of Sweden. Participants: 4 women with PTSD after childbirth (1 pregnant and 3 non-pregnant). Findings: All participants reported reduction of post-traumatic stress after treatment. After 1-3 years, the beneficial effects of EMDR treatment remained for 3 of the 4 women. Symptoms of intrusive thoughts and avoidance seemed most sensitive for treatment. Implications for Practice: EMDR might be a useful tool in the treatment of non-pregnant women severely traumatised by childbirth; however, further research is required. [Author Abstract]

Abstract:
Vid vårt novembermöte presenterade leg. psykolog Gunvor Ingemansson sin erfarenhet av behandling med EMDR-Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing vid enstaka och komplexa traumatillstånd. Under 90-talet arbetade Gunvor Ingemansson inom psykiatrin i Malmö med Rosengård som upptagningsområde. Där mötte hon många människor, som hade svåra och traumatiserande krigsupplevelser. Hon använde sig av krisbearbetande samtal och symboldramaterapi. Dessa arbetssätt hade hon lång erfarenhet av. Hon märkte emellertid att hon inte riktigt kom åt traumat i botten. Pröva nytt Detta ledde till att hon måste pröva något annat. 1994 hade metoden EMDR kommit till Sverige och introducerats av Roger Salomon. Han i sin tur hade en förstahandserfarenhet av metoden, eftersom han utbildats och samarbetar med Francine Shapiro, som skapat metoden. Hennes grundläggande bok är ”Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing”, utgiven på Guilford förlag. Shapiro har senare benämnt metoden ”Adaptive Information Processing Model”. I vardagligt språk i Sverige benämns metoden ofta som ögonrörelseterapi. Shapiro utvecklade ett sätt att arbeta med traumatiska erfarenheter till följd av egna upplevelser. Hon drabbades nämligen av en svårbotad cancer, som läkaren inte kunde ge besked om hur den skulle utvecklas. Hon lade märke till att när hon under sina promenader rörde ögonen på ett visst sätt hände någonting i hennes kropp. Hon undersökte detta vidare och successivt växte den behandlingsmetod fram som i dag spridit sig till många länder för att behandla bl a traumatillstånd. Det finns på sina håll ett visst ifrågasättande av metoden, men de evidensbaserade studier som gjorts visar på effekt av behandlingen. Nya behandlingsmetoder.

At our November meeting presented the leg. Psychologist Gunvor Ingemansson his experience with EMDR-Eye Movement desensitization and Reprocessing of single and complex trauma condition. During the 90's worked Gunvor Ingemansson in psychiatry in Malmö with Rosengard that catchment area. There she met many people who had difficult and traumatic war experiences. She used the emergency call processing and symbolic drama therapy. These practices, she had extensive experience. She noticed that she does not really come to the trauma of the bottom. Try again This led her to try something else. 1994 Approach EMDR come to Sweden and introduced by Roger Solomon. He in turn had a first hand experience of the method, since he trained and working with Francine Shapiro, who created the method. Her basic book is "Eye Movement desensitization and Reprocessing", published by Guilford publishers. Shapiro was later called the method "Adaptive Information Processing Model". In everyday language in Sweden method is referred to often as eye movement therapy. Shapiro developed a way to work with traumatic experiences resulting from their own experiences. She suffered from a severe namely cured cancer, the doctor could not provide information on how it would evolve. She noticed that when she walks in their eyes moved in a certain way something happened to her body. She investigated this further and gradually grew the treatment up to now spread to many countries to treat conditions including trauma. There are some places a particular challenge to the method, but the evidence-based studies show the efficacy of treatment. New treatments

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
This is a case presentation regarding the treatment of a severely traumatized woman formerly treated for depression and PTSD following incarceration in prison, “disappearance” of husband, and torture. After psychotherapy for several years, the patient improved and started to work in a qualified job. After some years, however, the patient returns because she has a feeling that the therapy was unfinished, and because of remaining psychosomatic symptoms, difficulties breathing, obesity, overeating, and recurrent urinary tract infections. The therapist then decided to try the resource installation protocol. However, in an impulse, he asked her to concentrate on her bodily sensations. Several video-recorded sequences illustrate how the patient, seemingly for the first time in her life, discovered and re-experienced childhood trauma. It seems that the eye movements during attempts at EMDR treatment made it possible to lift repression and dissociation as well as to make processing possible, thus liberating the patient from a heavy burden of mental and psychosomatic symptoms. At follow-up by the second author, the patient is entirely asymptomatic, with low DES scores and is no longer obese.
Learning objectives: 1. Somatoform symptoms as a bridge to dissociated traumatic childhood experiences 2. How dissociation might lift during treatment 3. Recent research findings regarding the effect of eye movements on episodic memory. 26

Abstract:
Föreningen EMDR Sverige vill lämna följande kommentarer till utkastet till riktlinjer avseende behandling av akut stressyndrom och posttraumatiskt stressyndrom. International Society for Traumatic Stress studies gör regelbundet sammanställningar av evidensläget [1]. Det är viktigt att beakta att psykologiska behandlingsformer i form av traumafokuserad KBT och EMDR är de viktigaste och mest effektiva behandlingar. EMDR har varit kontroversiell men är det inte längre, utan är en internationellt accepterad behandlingsmetod för PTSD. Det är fortfarande inte allmänt accepterad att ögonrörelser har betydelse, men nyligen har svensk och australisk forskning visat att ögonrörelser under EMDR har tydliga fysiologiska effekter som är meningsfulla [2, 9], dessutom har alla studier av fysiologi vid EMDR hittills samstämmande visat dessa effekter, enligt en litteratursammanställning [3]. Under senaste åren har forskning om minnesfunktion och sakkadiska ögonrörelser visat att minnessystem som till exempel episodminne (som ofta är störd vid PTSD) påverkas på ett gynnsamt sätt av ögonrörelser [4-8]. Således finns det i dag mycket som stödjer att ögonrörelser är meningsfulla även om det kan vara svårt att förstå vid första anblicken. EMDR och exponeringsbehandling är lika effektiva enligt metastudier, bland annat Cochrane och i ISTSS aktuella genomgång av effektiva behandlingsmetoder för PTSD. Referenser 1.

EMDR Association of Sweden makes the following comments to Draft Guidelines for the treatment of acute stress disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies makes regular summaries of evidence-mode [1]. It is important to note that psychological treatments in the form of trauma-focused CBT and EMDR is the most important and most effective treatments. EMDR has been controversial but it is no longer, but is an internationally accepted method of treatment for PTSD. There is still no generally accepted that eye movements are important, but lately, Swedish and Australian research has shown that eye movements during EMDR has clear physiological effects that are meaningful [2, 9], Moreover, all studies of physiology at the convergence of EMDR to date shown these effects, according to a literature review [3]. In recent years, research on memory function and Sakka wash eye movements showed that memory systems, such as episodic memory (which is often is disturbed in PTSD) is affected in a favorable way of eye movements [4-8]. Thus today there are a lot of support that eye movements are meaningful although it may be difficult to understand at first glance. EMDR and exposure therapy are as effective as meta-studies, including Cochrane and in ISTSS current review of effective treatments for PTSD.
