The biological effects of maltreatment provide helpful information that can be put into practice. The first step would be to ensure a safe environment for the child and adolescent patient. If a child continues to live in an extremely harsh environment, then it is not unlikely that treatments or the lessening of the biological stress systems will happen. Based on the research provided in this article, interventions with precise forms of evidence show how effective they are in treating traumatized children. These interventions have shown that the treatments help heal dysregulations mentioned in the neurobiological stress systems. One example of dysregulation would be sleeping hygiene issues, where patients who have trauma symptoms should receive help with this through behavioral methods or medications. Based on MRI studies, there has been evidence that cognitive-behavioral therapy can reduce dysregulation of the fear response and negative emotions associated with anxiety disorders to predict treatment outcomes. This ultimately ends up being the treatment for professionals as it has the most evidence of helping patients, specifically children. Child psychiatrists will usually work on sleep hygiene first, then focus on a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor on symptoms like anxiety and depression or adrenergic agents that suppress biological stress systems. Medications are taken with precaution as they can have adverse side effects for children who have experienced maltreatment and are prone to mood and anxiety disorders.
