Abstract
We found an independent association between elevated emergency department HR ⥠95 BPM and PTSD symptoms in a representative sample of injured acute care inpatients. Future investigations that incorporate clinical epidemiologic methods in the study of acute care biological parameters have the potential to improve the quality of mental health care delivered to injured survivors of individual and mass trauma.
