Drivers

Rise in the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorders

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a global health concern, arising from exposure to traumatic events like military combat, natural disasters, accidents, or personal assaults. The increasing prevalence of PTSD, especially among military personnel, first responders, and victims of violence or disasters, is boosting demand for effective treatments and improved diagnosis. For instance, It affects 3.5% of U.S. adults annually, with an estimated one in 11 diagnosed in their lifetime. Women are twice as likely as men to have PTSD.

Restraints
