Abstract

Background: Care in the intensive care unit (ICU) often introduces symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (post-ICU PTSD) in individuals with prior adverse experiences. General practitioners play an important role in follow-up care. Case report: A 58-year-old woman developed post-ICU PTSD symptoms after she experienced sepsis. She received brief narrative exposure therapy (NET) from her general practitioner and experienced significant improvement of symptoms. Conclusion: A brief version of NET might be appropriate for the treatment of patients with mild to moderate post-ICU PTSD symptoms.
