4.5 Conclusion
The high rates of recorded trauma exposure in the cohort highlighted the
ability of services to identify trauma-exposure through a thorough
clinical assessment. This study did not find a significant relationship
between trauma-exposure and symptom severity, which may reflect that the
relationship is complex and likely mediated through factors not assessed
in this study. Trauma-exposure should be considered in structured
assessments and treatment planning, including pharmacological, social,
and psychological interventions, to deliver comprehensive trauma
informed care.
