    (Mediafarm Group, 2021) Yasar, Alisan Burak; Gundogmus, Ibrahim; Gunduz, Anil; Konuk, Emre
    Introduction: Flash Technique method is an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensatization and Reprocessing) protocol specifically developed. In this protocol, there is little contact with the traumatic memories and focus is substantially on positive memories. For this reason, it might be convenient for group applications. In this study, we aimed at measuring the effects of EMDR Flash Technique group application on traumatic memories. Method: The sample of the study consists of 36 participants. On this sample, one-session of 90-120 minutes EMDR Flash Technique was applied. Participants were evaluated with Impacts of Events Scale (IES), PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) and Sociodemographic Variables Form before, one week later and one month later following the EMDR Flash Technique group application. Results: Comparison of Subjective Unit of Disturbance (SUD) and IES scores obtained from measurements conducted before (SUD=6.08 +/- 1.69, IES-R=24.52 +/- 11.57), one week after (SUD=3.75 +/- 1.90, IES-R=14.13 +/- 11.78) and one month after (SUD=2.83 +/- 2.00, IES-R=9.86 +/- 11.84) EMDR Flash Technique application revealed statistically significant difference (SUD: p<0.001, IES-R: p<0.001 ). In addition, a statistically significant difference was found in the comparison of pre-session (24.38 +/- 17.78) and one month after session (11.44 +/- 11.06) PCL-5 scores (p<0.001). Conclusion: In this study, the effects of EMDR Flash Technique application, which we thought to be easy to apply and less risky, were analyzed in a group consisting of 36 participants, and there were significant improvements in one-month follow-up scores in all of the three trauma measures. Examination of EMDR Flash Technique group application in other groups and with controlled long-term research may be a considerable option for future research.

    A Randomized-Controlled Trial of EMDR Flash Technique on Traumatic Symptoms, Depression, Anxiety, Stress, and Life of Quality With Individuals Who Have Experienced a Traffic Accident
    (FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, AVENUE DU TRIBUNAL FEDERAL 34, LAUSANNE CH-1015, SWITZERLAND, 2022) Yaşar, Alişan Burak; Konuk, Emre; Kavakçı, Önder; Uygun, Ersin; Gündoğmuş, İbrahim; Taygar, Afra Selma; Uludağ, Esra
    The Flash Technique of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is widely recognized for its effectiveness in reducing the effects of emotional responses associated with traumatic memories. Using a randomized-controlled trial methodology, this study attempts to establish the efficacy of the EMDR Flash Technique. This study’s sample includes volunteers who were involved in traffic accidents and were given the randomized EMDR Flash Technique and Improving Mental Health Training for Primary Care Residents (mhGAP) Stress management module. The participants were given a socio-demographic data form, the Depression-AnxietyStress 21 scale (DASS-21), the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), and the WHOQOL Quality of Life scale. Participants were evaluated using measurements taken before and after the application, as well as a one-month follow-up. The mean age of the participants was 36.20 (11.41) years and 82.1% (n=32) were female. The DASS-21 Anxiety (?2=0.085), IES-R Intrusion (?2=0.101), Avoidance (?2=0.124), Total (?2=0.147), and WHOQOL-BREF Psychological (?2=0.106) score improvements of the EMDR Flash Technique group were shown to be statistically significant when compared to the mhGAP group. However, no statistically significant difference in the DASS-21 Depression, Stress, Impact of Event ScaleRevised Hyperarousal WHOQOL-BREF General Health, Physical, Social Relationships, and Environment component scores was reported between the two groups. The present study’s findings clearly demonstrate that the EMDR Flash technique, when applied to persons involved in traffic accidents, is successful in improving anxiety, intrusion, avoidance, total traumatic stress, and mental quality of life symptoms for at least 1month. We believe that these findings will improve the reliability and applicability of the EMDR Flash Technique, which was tested for the first time in a clinical randomized-controlled trial (RCT).

    Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and Concentrated EMDR: A case study
    (Klinik Psikiyatri Dergisi, 2022) Yaşar, Alişan Burak; Altunbaş, Fatma Dilara; Tebiş Picard, İnci; Gündüz, Anıl; Konuk, Emre; Kavakçı, Önder
    It has been highlighted that comorbidity of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and PTSD leads a more complicated treatment process. Hence, it might be useful and practical to provide more trauma-focused therapy methods such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. This article illustrates a clinical case by describing the positive outcome of the concentrated EMDR therapy with a treatment frequency increased more than one session in a week of a 25 year old woman with TBI and PTSD. EMDR treatment has been provided for ten days and seven sessions in total for 90 min in each session. The results of the treatment have been measured with CAPS, SUD and VOC score. Results show the effectiveness of concentrated EMDR even after the 16 month follow up.
