Filter by:Brief Admission by self-referral (BA) is a standardized treatment model, providing patient-controlled and person-centered care. It was developed to reduce self-harm and compulsory care by promoting autonomy. Randomized clinical trials have not yielded significant between group differences with respect to inpatient care, including compulsory care. The major difficulty in evaluating BA is preventing the control group from cross-contamination, as in the implementation process of BA, all physicians, all inpatient and outpatient staff as well as managers need to be informed and undergo basic education regarding the intervention. As BA addresses a prevalent and frustrating issue in psychiatric health care, there is considerable risk that the approach leaks to the control group, reducing the possibility to detect between-group differences. In the current study this will be addressed through a register-based approach, comparing similar clinics, implementing BA at different timepoints over time. Individuals with traits of borderline personality disorder will be included and comparisons will be made with respect to compulsory care, voluntary inpatient care and mortality.
The goal of this pre-post-follow-up study is to examine how well the treatment Dialectical behavior therapy for adolescents (DBT-A) with a duration of 20 weeks for adolescents with self-harm and suicidal behavior works in routine clinical practice. The main questions it aims to answer are: - to investigate how well DBT-A works after treatment and at 3-month follow-up, measured by episodes of self-harm, suicide attempts, depressive symptoms and quality of life, drop-out from treatment and number of possible participants who decline DBT-A. - to investigate how well DBT-A works at 12 months follow-up - to investigate whether pre-treatment factors can predict who will benefit from treatment
Deliberate self-harm (DSH) is a prevalent behaviour among adolescents but there is no current recommendation for an efficacious treatment. Emotion regulation group therapy (ERGT) is a brief treatment for DSH with a well-documented utility and feasibility in the adult population, and an adapted version for adolescents may provide equal benefits for adolescents, provided adjustments to prevent or decrease social contagion are present. A quantitative feasibility open trial (N=20) followed up by a qualitative interview study will examine the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effect of ERGT for adolescents.
Suicide is the leading cause of death due to illness among Canadian youth, claiming more lives than any medical illness, including cancer. Suicide prevention is possible, and early intervention is needed. The investigators will examine the effectiveness of a previously-piloted, ED-based suicide prevention intervention, across Canadian sites, using a randomized clinical trial design. The investigators will determine whether the patient- and family-centered intervention is more effective than enhanced usual care in reducing suicide-related behaviors in 330 youth at high-risk of suicide.
This Study will comprehensively evaluate a multi-component suicide prevention technology (Jaspr Health) that facilitates delivery of suicided-related evidence-based practices (EBPs) while replacing wasted waiting time with productive time in the Emergency Departments (EDs). The EBPs satisfy several key performance elements for systems adopting Zero Suicide. A Complementary Randomized Controlled Trial and Real-World Study for Efficacy, Effectiveness, and Implementation Study Design (CREID) will be used
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been successfully used to help patients with treatment resistant depression. However, its role in alleviating self injuries with and without suicidal ideation remained uncertain. This trial will compare the effectiveness of active accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation (aiTBS) rTMS to a placebo control on non-suicidal self injury (NSSI) and suicidal attempts in patients with major depressive disorder.
To investigate the intervention effect of high-definition transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS) on patients with Non-suicidal Self-injury (NSSI) and its underlying neural mechanism by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
To investigate the treatment effect of Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy (SNT) on patients with Non-suicidal Self-injury (NSSI) and the underlying neural mechanism.
Pragmatic randomized controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of two-way Caring Contacts text messages vs. one-way Caring Contacts text messages vs. enhanced usual care for suicide prevention in adults and adolescents.
To investigate the intervention effect of high-definition transcranial alternating current stimulation (HD-tACS) on patients with Non-suicidal Self-injury (NSSI) and its underlying neural mechanism by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
