Full Description

Chapter IV: Risk Assessment and Oneiric Pathology
Chapter IV explores how medical risk assessment tools can be adapted to understand the connection between dream events and real-world illness.
It discusses:
Relevance of Risk Assessment: The importance of risk assessment in medicine, particularly in areas like cardiovascular health and palliative care.
Challenges: The difficulties in quantifying "damage" in the subjective realm of dreams.
Analogies: Drawing parallels between medical scales (like those for pain or functional status) and potential ways to assess the impact of disturbing dreams.
Conceptual Proposal: Outlining a framework for evaluating "oneiric damage" based on factors like dream frequency, emotional impact, and interference with daily life.
The chapter aims to bridge the gap between objective medical measurement and the subjective experience of suffering linked to the Oneiric Cosmos.
