我们报告一个意想不到的现象后,自由企业先驱灾难。在灾难发生后的三年里,一系列跨海峡渡轮工人被他们的全科医生转介到民俗石心理健康小组,尽管他们作为幸存者、失去亲人的亲属或帮助者与灾难没有直接接触,但他们表现出创伤后应激障碍。一项回顾性病例研究描述了14名渡轮船员与创伤后应激障碍。13人完成了GHQ 60。有证据表明该组患者存在严重的功能障碍。有人认为,这些主题是自由企业先驱报灾难的间接受害者。其中的“涟漪向外”的重大海上事故可能会延伸到这样的外围受害者的方式进行了讨论。
We report on an unexpected phenomenon following the Herald of Free Enterprise disaster. A series of cross-channel ferry workers referred by their GPs to the Folkestone Mental Health Team, during the three years after the disaster, presented with post-traumatic stress disorder, despite having no direct contact with the disaster as survivors, bereaved relatives or helpers. A retrospective case study is described of 14 ferry crew members presenting with PTSD. Thirteen completed the GHQ60. Evidence is presented of severe functional impairment in this group. It is argued that these subjects are indirect victims of the Herald of Free Enterprise disaster. Ways in which the 'ripples outward' of a major marine accident might extend to such peripheral victims are discussed.
