Assessing the Predictive Validity of Early Post-injury CAPS-5 for Later Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Diagnosis
<b>Conclusion:</b> A CAPS-5 score of ≥15 would be an effective and practical cutoff for early prediction of PTSD following physical injuries. In cases of intentional injuries or a documented trauma history, a cutoff of ≥16 may offer enhanced predictive precision. Future research in diverse settings and populations is needed to confirm the generalizability of our findings.
