Abstract:Post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)in children is one of the mental health conditions most easily overlooked in clinical settings.When children are admitted to the hospital following a traumatic event,it is essential to screen for both PTSD and acute stress disorder(ATSD)to facilitate early intervention and support.This review summarizes the measurement tools,predictive indicators,and novel assessment tools for PTSD and ATSD in children and adolescents.The aim is to provide a theoretical basis for improving comprehensive assessments in traumatized children and to enhance the clinical ability to evaluate and screen for early PTSD in children.
