6 Cluster 1. Life threatening event to self or others resulting is markedly distressing 2. Event persistently re- experienced: intrusive distressing recollections, recurrent distressing dreams/nightmares, flashbacks
7 Cluster 3. Persistence avoidance: avoid thoughts, activities &/or reminders of event; detached feelings; foreshortened future 4. Persistent arousal: sleep problems, irritability, hyper- arousal or startle, concentration difficulties Psychiatric Diagnoses Related to Combat in Iraq and Afghanistan Following OIF, Depression, Anxiety & rates were: 15% 17% for Iraqi combat veterans 11.2% for Afghanistan combat veterans (Hoge et al., 2004)
8 and the War on Terrorism It is anticipated that the rate of will be higher among troops who have been to Iraq more than once.. (COL Elspeth Ritchie, July 19, 2006) rates, among soldiers hospitalized following serious combat injury, was 12% at 7 months following hospitalization (Grieger et al, 2006) and the War on Terrorism Soldiers who deployed longer (i.e., greater than six months) or had deployed multiple times were more likely to screen positive for a mental health issue (DOD, Mental Health Advisory Team (MHAT-IV) Survey: 04 May 2007).

14 VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically First two treatments: focused on meditation training and familiarity with the combat town Sessions 3 10: individualized & focused on progressively increasing the combat threat or elements & the patient s s immersion in the combat zones, eliciting SUDs levels, and effecting habituation Re-assessment following Sessions #5 & #10 VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically PRE-RX MID-RX POST-RX PCL-M PHQ-9 BAI Figure 1.

Physiological Assessment of Heart Rate (Beats per Minute) at Pre-, Mid-, and Post- Treatment (N = 6) VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically SUMMARY: Post-treatment treatment PCL-M scores decreased; with two Warriors in remission Post-treatment treatment Depression scores decreased (i.e., Moderate Severe to Moderate) Post-treatment treatment Anxiety scores decreased from Severe to Moderate
17 VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically SUMMARY: Skin Condutance is a modifiable physiological response 1. Pre-Treatment SC was not reduced between Recall and Recovery (i.e., 7.14 to 7.34) 2. Mid-Treatment SC was reduced between Recall and Recovery (i.e., 6.07 to 2.8) 3. Post-Treatment SC Recall was lower (i.e., 4.64) VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically SUMMARY: Much variability to Peripheral Temperature (PT) 1. 3 Warriors PT increased and 3 Warriors PT decreased between Pre- Treatment Base and Post-Treatment Recovery (Pre-RX Base = 91.84) 2. May take more than 10 VRGET sessions to demonstrate a positive change in PT
18 VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically SUMMARY: Much Heart Rate (HR) variability between Pre-,, Mid-,, and Post- Treatment assessments (i.e., 74.02; 83.04; 77.79); Analysis of individual HR needed 1. Warriors differences in Initial HR (i.e., low = 66.5 vs. 86.3) 2. Warriors differences in Post-RX Recovery HR (i.e., 68.8 vs. 90.6) VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically CONCLUSIONS: 1. Pt reported presence of improved life- management skills 2. New VRGET Therapy for combat veterans DX with successfully developed 3. Currently soliciting input from Treated Warriors concerning the PROS and CONS of their VRGET
19 VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically CONCLUSIONS: VRGET sessions, with sessions twice a week, may be more effective 5. VRGET DVD developed for warriors homework with meditation CD 6. Homework being framed using results from PCL-M M administered between re-evaluations evaluations VRMC/ONR Virtually Reality Assisted, Physiologically CONCLUSIONS: 7. Review the bio-feedback data documenting the acquisition curve for Warriors converting increased Heart Rate VLF to LF the VLF-LF ratio represents the true Philosopher's Stone (Dr. James Spria) 8. Compare VRGET outcomes for 10 Wafrriors first 10 sessions against their second 10 VRGET sessions outcomes
