About the event
Medical experiences such as ICU stays can cause PTSD, and during the Covid-19 pandemic, ICU stays increased (Murray et al., 2020). Additionally, healthcare disparities create increased risk of chronic health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, excess weight, asthma, and heart disease for racially minoritized populations compared to White counterparts (OHE, 2023). Mindfulness-based interventions hold promise when it comes to treating trauma reactions after medical events (Hall & Hall, 2017). That said, as Treleaven (2018) shows, trauma survivors may have unique and distressing reactions to meditation and mindfulness.
