NCT ID: NCT06370104 Recruiting - Suicide Attempt Clinical Trials

Treating Suicidality Remotely

TREASURE
Start date: May 7, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: Practical and psychological barriers make it difficult for people with Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors (STBs) to get professional help. Online interventions have the potential to overcome many of these barriers, but the online interventions to date have produced small or short-lived effects and have only been found to reduce suicidal thoughts, not behaviors. This is a crucial limitation, since previous studies have shown that interventions that reduce suicidal thoughts often do not prevent suicide attempts, and vice versa. Methods: A fully remote randomized controlled trial will be conducted in which 364 participants of 16 years and older will be recruited through the website of a suicide prevention helpline in the Netherlands and randomized with an allocation ratio of 1:1 to either Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicide Prevention (BCBT-SP) or a semi-guided online self-help course that has previously been found superior to waitlist in reducing suicidal thoughts. The primary outcome of the study is the number of suicide attempts, measured with the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale. Secondary outcomes are self-reported suicidal ideation, healthcare utilization, treatment satisfaction, adverse effects, and quality of life. All outcomes will be assessed at baseline, immediately after the treatment and at 18 months follow-up. Discussion: If remote BCBT-SP proves effective, the findings of this study will add to the evidence base of BCBT-SP as one of very few psychological interventions with replicated effectiveness in preventing suicide attempts and provide the first evidence to date that remote interventions cannot only reduce suicidal thoughts, but also prevent suicidal behavior.

NCT ID: NCT06233747 Recruiting - Suicidal Ideation Clinical Trials

Improving Care, Accelerating Recovery and Education

I-CARE
Start date: February 29, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the I-CARE program in children who are in a medical hospital awaiting inpatient mental health treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can the I-CARE program be used at the medical hospitals and do the patients and hospital staff like the program? - Does the I-CARE program lower patients' emotional distress, thoughts about suicide or suicide attempts? Patients will complete as many of the 7 I-CARE videos as possible during their stay at the medical hospital and fill out online surveys. There are workbook activities that go with each I-CARE video. A hospital staff member will help the patient do the videos and workbook activities.

NCT ID: NCT06223867 Recruiting - Suicidal Ideation Clinical Trials

Efficacy, Effectiveness, and Implementation of Jaspr Health in Emergency Department- Part A

Jaspr-PartA
Start date: February 23, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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

NCT ID: NCT05996172 Recruiting - Suicidal Ideation Clinical Trials

Swift Outpatient Alternatives for Rapid Stabilization

SOARS
Start date: November 9, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the effective outpatient management of acute youth suicide risk by optimizing intervention components to build an efficient, evidence-based intervention that is responsive to the needs of, and coordinated with, providers in primary care settings. The main questions are: 1. What is the strongest combination of SOARS components associated with reduction in youth suicidal thoughts and behavior (STB)? 2. Do age and STB history moderate the impact of the effects of the SOARS intervention components? 3. Do therapeutic alliance, youth and caregiver self-efficacy account for changes in youth STBs? 4. What helps medical outpatient providers refer to SOARS and continue care after SOARS?

Real-time Intervention for Suicide Risk Reduction

Start date: September 25, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to determine whether learning three skills for managing negative emotions and receiving reminders via smartphone to practice these skills reduces how often and how intensely one experiences emotional distress and suicidal thoughts.

NCT ID: NCT05707975 Recruiting - Anxiety Clinical Trials

Eco-anxiety and Suicide

EcoAnx
Start date: April 27, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Suicide is a major public health problem. About 9,000 suicides per year are retrieved by year in France. Between 15,000 and 20,0000 suicide attempts give rise to contact with the healthcare system. Among young people aged 15 to 24 years old, suicide is the second main cause of death. In this way, suicide among adolescents is a major public health priority, due to its seriousness, its frequency, and its potentially preventable nature. The severity of suicide risk can be assessed by different scales, and the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is the most widely used in the international literature for adolescents, assessing four dimensions: suicidal ideation, severity of ideation, suicidal behavior and lethality. The measurement of the seriousness of the suicide risk is therefore defined as the measurement of the importance of the direct and indirect negative consequences associated with this risk. It can be catch up in the four factors mentioned above. Anxiety is one of the central pillars influencing the suicidal risk of adolescents. Very few studies have identified operationalizable and generalizable risk factors for anxiety. However, in adolescents, one of the risk factors for anxiety seems particularly important, because it is a factor that is both generic (i.e., it can be found in different profiles of adolescents), related to the projection in the future (which characterizes this population), and relatively specific to this age group, while being operational through validated questionnaires. This important risk factor is the eco-anxiety, which corresponds to anxiety related to climate change. The theme of climate change is certainly a central social issue, but also an important public health issue. First, climate change raises direct risks to human health, and indirectly some risks for mental health. For instance, the direct consequences of a drought or natural disaster can cause material hardship that impacts indirectly mental health (Thoma et al., 2021). Secondly, climate change can also raise direct risk for mental health, and especially the eco-anxiety which is not the consequence of a direct risk from the environment on an individual, but rather constitutes mental distress related to the fear of such changes. Eco-anxiety can be identified and measured in a valid and reliable way thanks to a scale used in the international literature, the "Climate Anxiety Scale" (CAS), which was validated in 2020 with 22 items with 4 factors by Clayton and Karazsia (Clayton and Karazsia, 2020), and translated and validated in French in 2022 by Mouguiama-Daouda (Mouguiama-Daouda et al., 2022), retaining as the most appropriate model the version with the first 13 items. This scale is suitable for adolescents from the age of 12 years old. This 13-item scale is composed of two subscales that assess cognitive and emotional difficulties in response to climate change and functional impairment. Two subscales are added to this 13-item scale (and thus are part of the 22-item CAS also validated), which assess 1) direct or indirect personal experience of climate change, and 2) behavioral commitment and the tendency to deploy adaptive behavioral responses to climate change. The literature reports a correlation between eco-anxiety and depression (Mouguiama-Daouda et al., 2022). Indeed, depressive symptoms can influence how people worry about climate change. The correlation between eco-anxiety and anxiety is variable in the literature and has been studied using questionnaires focusing on generalized anxiety (Mouguiama-Daouda et al., 2022). Higher suicide rates have certainly been shown in populations affected by climate change (Dumont et al., 2020), related to the direct consequences of climate change, e.g., due to pollution, increased temperature or drought. However, to the knowledge of the investigators and despite the major public health impact in adolescents, no study has investigated the relationships between eco-anxiety and the severity of suicide risk. This study therefore seeks to examine the association between eco-anxiety in adolescents, assessed using the French version of the CAS, and the severity of suicide risk, assessed using the French version of the C-SSRS. We hypothesize that there would be a relationship between eco-anxiety and the severity of suicide risk in adolescents. Such results would allow both to refine the understanding of the risk of suicide, in its relationship with a central theme of society and public health, and to better identify and prevent behaviors at risk of suicide among adolescents.

Harry Potter as a Novel Educational Paradigm to Improve Mental Wellness in Children: A Prospective Trial

Start date: September 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

School-based mental health literacy interventions have been shown to reduce and/or prevent suicidal ideation and attempts. Most programs to date include an adapted version of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) - the gold standard treatment for youth and adult mood and anxiety disorders. CBT teaches youth about the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and provides strategies for managing distress. However, there is no established standard mental health literacy curriculum in Ontario. The investigators developed a school-based mental health literacy program that uses the third book in the Harry Potter series ('Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban') to teach students how to cope with distress through CBT skills. This study will determine whether the Harry Potter-based mental health literacy curriculum diminishes suicidality in students. The study will also determine whether the curriculum decreases depression and anxiety symptoms and improves well-being. The 3-month intervention is a manual-based curriculum which teaches CBT skills in English class. The website includes video and text-based onboarding to train teachers on all the lessons. Youth complete online exercises for each unit and teachers follow a manual with checklists to preserve high fidelity and standardization of core learning. Participating classes will be randomized in 1:1 fashion to receive the curriculum in the fall (~Oct-Dec) or the winter (~Feb-Apr). The study will use a stepped-wedge design to introduce the curriculum to classes sequentially testing whether students who receive it in fall will improve at mid-year and those in winter will catch up by year-end. The winter group is included as a "maturational" control to account for changes over the school year that are independent of the intervention and so that order effects of curriculum delivery can be tested. For this design, questionnaires will be administered four times throughout the school year (once before and after each semester), and once more the following year to measure duration of response. At each timepoint, subjects will complete validated questionnaires about suicide attempts and self-harm, anxiety, depression, well-being, and health services usage. Students may also choose to participate in focus groups to collect qualitative data on their experience with the curriculum. With additional consent (Ontario youth only), we will also collect aggregate lists of the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) numbers for participating students. These will be provided to the Institute of Clinical Evaluative Sciences (ICES) who will identify sex, age and pre-existing healthcare utilization matched controls from regions that do not adopt the curriculum.

Expansion and Reevaluation of the Implicit Association Test in Suicide Ideators and Suicide Attempters

IAT-S
Start date: May 27, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A new approach to investigate suicidal processes belongs to the broader neurocognitive picture and are so-called implicit associations. In dual process models of information processing a second functioning mode, the automatic processing mode, complements the conscious processing. Suicidal persons tend to have a stronger implicit association with "death" than non-suicidal persons. In this study, implicit associations between different unconscious cognitive constructs are compared among suicidal and non-suicidal patients. Therefore, an adapted version of the computer-based reaction time task (IAT-S) will be used. Four different versions of IATs are tested in this study. In the first version the implicit association between "self / others" and "death / life" is assessed (1). The second and third version measures the emotional evaluation of "death" (2) and "life" (3). In addition, in the fourth version the implicit association between death / life and internal / external locus of control is assessed (4). The implicit associations of these four IAT-S versions are compared between three groups: patients with suicidal behavior, patients with suicidal ideation, and a clinical group without previous suicide attempts and without suicidal ideation. The following hypotheses are made: in all four versions of the IAT-S, patients with previous suicidal behavior will have stronger implicit associations: between "self" and "death" as well as "death" and "internal locus of control" compared to all other groups. With a more "positive" evaluation of "death" and a more "negative" evaluation of "life" than all other participants.

Evaluation of the Risk Associated With Impulsivity and Other Neuropsychological Factors on Suicidal Relapse Within Hospital Emergencies

SUI-PREDICT
Start date: May 5, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Suicidal behavior (SB) is a major public health problem in France, with over 10,000 suicides (6th in the EU28) and 220,000 suicide attempts (SA) per year. These data seem underestimated by 20%. A large percentage of men (6%) and women (9%) in France made at least one lifetime SA. In addition, SBs are common among young people and are the second leading cause of death among 15-44 year-olds. The interaction of multiple factors in SB complicates the creation of predictive models. These are currently imprecise and prevent the development of consensual recommendations for the management of suicidal patients. Most suicide attempters are evaluated in the emergency room where it is imperative to identify people with a high risk of relapse. Risk assessment is generally based on the experience of the practitioner who uses psychometric scales as support for clinical decisions. This assessment could be improved and supplemented by other sources of information. Thus, we aim to develop a short and specific tool that combines: 1. Neurocognitive measures carried out using computer software on domains strongly associated with SB: impulsivity, affective dysregulation, alterations in decision-making (risky choices), selective attention and verbal fluency. 2. Clinical and psychological assessment including the most predictive items of future SA: life events (environment) and personality traits (vulnerability). Suicide attempters will be assessed for SB and suicidal ideation in the emergency department. These measures will be repeated during a 12-month follow-up. We will use the data obtained to provide a more accurate measure of risk.

Cognitive Behavioural Group Therapy Versus Individual Supportive Therapy for the Prevention of Repeat Suicide Attempts

G-PACTS
Start date: October 17, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a program of 6 sessions of Cognitive Behavioural Group Therapy (CBGT) (as compared to 6 sessions of Individual Supportive Therapy (IST)) designed for preventing repeat suicide attempts at 12 months post-psychotherapy in adults admitted to inpatient care for suicide attempts.
