Predictors of mental health outcomes in road traffic accident survivors
Mental health outcomes of road traffic accidents (RTA) are always investigated among injured. The aim of study was to determine psychological consequences and associated factors in RTA survivors who sustained injuries and those without injuries, but with traumatic experience of RTA. Cohort of 155 people was assessed following one month after experiencing a RTA using self-reported measures for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety. Associations between mental health outcomes and sociodemographic factors, pre-RTA health status, injury-related factors and RTA details were analysed. RTA survivors reported substantial rates of PTSD (32.3%) and depression (17.4%) symptoms, and low rates of anxiety (5.8%). Symptoms of depression were associated with under-average self-perceived economic status, irreligiousness, medication use, psychiatric medication use and injury-related factors. PTSD symptoms were associated with female gender, under average self-perceived economic status, previous psychiatric illness, medication use, psychiatric medication use, not at fault in the RTA, claiming compensation and injury-related factors. Anxiety symptoms were associated with previous chronic or psychiatric illness, previous permanent pain, psychiatric medication use and self-perceived threat to life, but not with sustaining injury. Along with evaluation and treatment of RTA injuries, health care providers should evaluate pre-RTA health status of all RTA victims. Psychological support to those at risk may prevent psychological disorders after RTA.
