This is the second of a three-part series on pediatric trauma, delveing into the epidemiology and underlying mechanisms of trauma-related disorders in children and adolescents. Dr. O'Leary discusses what might increase risk of developing PTSD after trauma. The discussion also explores the neurobiological impact of trauma, detailing how it can dysregulate the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, alter neurotransmitter systems, and affect crucial brain regions like the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex. The episode highlights the profound effects of early deprivation on attachment disorders and outlines the diverse manifestations of trauma across various developmental stages, from infancy through adolescence, underscoring the importance of considering age-specific presentations and potential regressions when assessing affected youth.
