Area of Science:

  • Military medicine
  • Mental health screening
  • Expeditionary healthcare

Background:

  • Mental health conditions are the primary reason for medical evacuations in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.
  • The In-Theater Mental Health Assessment (ITMHA) is a mandatory screening for deployed personnel.
  • Evaluating the ITMHA's effectiveness in improving service members' mental health outcomes is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy of the In-Theater Mental Health Assessment (ITMHA) in identifying service members requiring mental health support.
  • To analyze the outcomes of the ITMHA in deployed Army units within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.

Main Methods:

  • Collected and analyzed ITMHA results from two deployed Army battalions and a brigade headquarters.
  • Conducted the study between October 2022 and October 2023 in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.
  • Utilized descriptive statistics to characterize the ITMHA results.

Main Results:

  • Out of 670 service members, 157 (23%) scored positive on the ITMHA.
  • Only 10 service members were referred for further mental health evaluation.
  • The majority of positive ITMHA scores (147, 22%) did not result in referral due to lack of significant impairment or existing care.
  • One service member required evacuation for mental health reasons.
  • Common stressors included family/relationship issues, sleep problems, and mental health concerns.

Conclusions:

  • The ITMHA identified a limited number of deployed personnel needing mental health care.
  • The ITMHA has several limitations that hinder its utility in the expeditionary environment.
  • Addressing these limitations could enhance the ITMHA's role in preventing mental health decline among service members.
