Objectives: The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for the development of effective post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) intervention programs for firefighters.Methods: Four domestic and four abroad databases were used, and 7 domestic and 4 abroad studies that met the criteria of this study were selected for systematic review and meta-analysis.Results: The overall effect size of the PTSD intervention program was 0.40 (95% confidence interval, CI: 0.17-0.64, p<0.05) in domestic and 0.37 (95% CI: 0.02-0.71, p<0.05) in abroad.Conclusions: Various domestic and abroad intervention methods for PTSD of firefighters have low effects. Therefore, based on the results of this study, it is necessary to develop and apply a post-traumatic stress disorder intervention program for firefighters.

BackgroundPharmacological treatment is widely used for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) despite questions over its efficacy.AimsTo determine the efficacy of all types of pharmacotherapy, as monotherapy, in reducing symptoms of PTSD, and to assess acceptability.MethodA systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials was undertaken; 51 studies were included.ResultsSelective serotonin reuptake inhibitors were found to be statistically superior to placebo in reduction of PTSD symptoms but the effect size was small (standardised mean difference −0.23, 95% CI −0.33 to −0.12). For individual pharmacological agents compared with placebo in two or more trials, we found small statistically significant evidence of efficacy for fluoxetine, paroxetine and venlafaxine.ConclusionsSome drugs have a small positive impact on PTSD symptoms and are acceptable. Fluoxetine, paroxetine and venlafaxine may be considered as potential treatments for the disorder. For most drugs there is inadequate evidence regarding efficacy for PTSD, pointing to the need for more research in this area.
