I have been asked by a consultant to find out the frequency of post
traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the elderly.  I can find a lot of
information about the PTSD in this group, mainly relating to holocaust
survivors and war veterans but nothing statistical about the prevalence
of this condition in this age group.  I suspect that I'm not going to be
able to find specific figures for him.
 
Can anyone help or suggest a source which might have this information?
 
Many thanks,
 
Jane
