Risk for suicide is elevated in the period after discharge from hospital among adults with major affective disorder. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility of delivering tDCS sessions for high-risk patients for suicide at home in the days following discharge from an emergency department or inpatient unit. This is a single-center, randomized, sham-controlled, double-blind clinical study. We plan to assess up to 80 adult patients for eligibility over 12 months of which 20 will be enrolled and randomized. Clinical assessments will be performed at baseline, post-treatment day 14 (14 days after the first tDCS session), and follow-up day 30 and 60 (30 and 60 days after the first tDCS session, respectively).
The aim of this pilot study is to reduce suicide among sexual and gender diverse youth ages 18-24 years old. This pilot study will compare two brief suicide prevention interventions that have been adapted for use with this population to use in primary care via telehealth and will recruit 40 youth from 4-6 primary care clinics in the Dallas and Austin, Texas metropolitan areas. Each clinic will be randomly assigned to deliver one of the two study interventions.
The purpose of this project is to conduct a randomized control trial with 470 Veterans to examine the impact of a revised version of Motivational Interviewing to Address Suicidal Ideation (MI-SI-R) on risk for suicide attempts and suicidal ideation when compared to high quality usual care.
The proposed K23 study is an intervention study using an experimental therapeutics approach. This pilot RCT asks: "Does SOCIAL-ENGAGE increase cultural-social engagement and decrease suicide risk among Spanish-speaking adults?" We will first optimize a behavioral intervention - SOCIAL ENGAGE (S-ENGAGE) - for target engagement using human-centered design approaches with Spanish-speaking adults at risk for suicide (n=5) and then conduct a pilot RCT (n=60) to test target engagement (cultural-social engagement) and clinical impact (suicide risk) of S-ENGAGE with this population. The ultimate goal is for S-ENGAGE to be offered as a suicide prevention program for Hispanics at risk for suicide.
This is a single-blind two armed cluster randomized controlled trial (cRCT) aimed to determine the effectiveness of an integrated blended intervention (online a face-to face sessions) to reduce suicidal ideation (primary outcome). Additionally, the effect of the program on the following secondary outcomes will be assessed: suicidal attempts, depressive symptoms, hopelessness and problem-solving skills. On the other side, given its probable role as underlying mechanism in SI reduction, the effect of the intervention on emotional regulation will be assessed. Moreover, the study will evaluate whether the effects of the cRCT on primary and secondary outcomes remain at post-intervention and at 3-month, 6-month and 12-month follow-up.
Background: The United States is undergoing a suicide epidemic for its youngest Veterans (18-to-34-years-old) as their suicide rate has almost doubled since 2001. Veterans are at the highest risk during their first-year post-discharge, thus creating a "deadly gap" for them. In response, the nation has developed strategies that emphasize a preventive, universal and public health approach and embrace the value of community interventions. The three-step theory of suicide suggests that community interventions that reduce pain from reintegration difficulties and promote connectedness for Veterans as they transition to civilian life have the greatest likelihood of success. Recent research shows that the effectiveness of community interventions can be enhanced when augmented by volunteer and certified sponsors (1-on-1) who actively engage with Veterans, as part of the Veterans Affairs' Transitioning Servicemember/Veteran (TSMV) Sponsorship Initiative. Method/Design: The purpose of this trial is to determine how to implement the Sponsorship Initiative in six cities in Texas in collaboration with the US Department of Defense, VA, Texas government, and local stakeholders. Texas is an optimal location for this large-scale implementation as it has the second largest population of Veterans aged 18-to-34-years-old and is home to the largest US military installation, Fort Hood. The first aim is to further determine the effectiveness of the Sponsorship Initiative, as evidenced by measures of proximal variables (reintegration difficulties, health/psychological distress, VA healthcare utilization and connectedness) and distal variables (suicidal ideation and behaviors). The second aim is to determine how best to implement the Sponsorship Initiative in Texas with the intent of future expansion in more states. TSMVs (n=628) will be recruited from military installations six months prior to discharge and prior to moving to target cities. The evaluators are utilizing implementation strategies, such as building community partnerships and external facilitation. Evaluation will be conducted through interviews with TSMVs and periodic reflections with key stakeholders to identify barriers, facilitators, and adaptations. Outcome evaluations will be conducted with TSMVs completing surveys and data collection from working with stakeholders. Discussion: This evaluation will have important implications for the national implementation of community interventions that address the epidemic of TSMV suicide. Aligned with the Evidence Act, it is the first large-scale implementation of an evidence-based practice that conducts a thorough assessment of TSMVs during the "deadly gap".
This study aims to explore the safety and tolerability of a single dose of psilocybin (25mg) administered under supportive conditions to adult participants with TRD and chronic suicidal ideation
The goal of this study is to test whether a single low-dose of IV ketamine given in the emergency department to adolescents with treatment-resistant depression and suicidal ideation can reduce depression symptoms and suicidal thoughts compared to placebo. Participants will complete depression scales at baseline, and 1 hour, 3 hours, 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days after receiving the treatment.
The primary aim of the present study is leverage existing infrastructure to develop novel technological features for a novel personalized smartphone intervention system, called the Mobile Application to Prevent Suicide (MAPS), and to establish feasibility, acceptability, safety, and estimate key parameters for primary outcomes (i.e., suicidal ideation and behavior; re-hospitalization), and target mechanisms.
