Recorded summary

A six-day programme combining prolonged exposure, EMDR, physical activity and support from relatives or friends included 74 people aged 12–25. At one month, 65% no longer met PTSD criteria; dropout was 4%.

Recorded limitations

Intensive clinician-delivered, multimodal treatment with no randomized comparator. The sample included 36 people aged 12–17 and 38 aged 18–25; it does not establish a gentle entertainment effect.
