View clinical trials related to Suicide, Attempted.
Filter by: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
A non invasive treatment study including participants at risk for suicide attempts and undergoing neurofeedback training. Neurofeedback is controlling your brain activity in real time inside the scanner.
The study will compare the effectiveness of two relatively brief and scalable evidence-based interventions: the Stanley Brown Safety Planning Intervention and Follow-up Contacts (SPI+), a suicide-specific intervention that helps people prevent suicidal crises from escalating, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Adolescents Ultra Short Crisis Intervention (IPT-A SCI), a psychotherapeutic crisis intervention treatment for suicidal adolescents that teaches youth skills to prevent suicidal crises and addresses interpersonal problems that lead to suicidal crises. The results will inform the future standard of care for youth at risk for suicide presenting in the ED setting. This project focuses on suicidal youth ages 12-19 in three ethnically and racially diverse urban areas: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Baltimore, Maryland; and upper Manhattan/lower Bronx in New York City.
Background and Rationale: Suicide is the second leading cause of death in Canadian Emerging Adults (EAs; 18-24yrs). Current treatments for suicidal thoughts and behaviors are limited and novel treatments are required to save lives. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive neurostimulation treatment for major depressive disorder, a mental health condition at high risk for suicide. It is well tolerated and effective. However, in the child and youth population, it does not appear to be superior to sham-TMS. Therefore, strategies for enhancing TMS outcomes are required. Over time, TMS can change the function of brain regions important in depression to reduce the symptoms of depression, including suicidal ideation. The investigators believe this occurs through a process called 'synaptic plasticity', or the process by which neurons change their connectivity with other neurons in an activity-dependent manner. Using an adjunct to facilitate these changes in the EA population may improve TMS outcomes, including its effect on suicidal ideation. The investigators' previous data indicates that, in adults, the effects of a TMS protocol called intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) can be enhanced by pairing stimulation with a medication called D-Cycloserine. This FDA-approved medication leads to enhanced synaptic plasticity with iTBS. In adults, this combination led to greater improvements in depression symptoms, with a notable rapid resolution of suicidal thoughts as well as improvements on a computerized test that is associated with future suicidal behavior. Research Question and Objectives: To conduct a 2-week double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial where 60 participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) accelerated iTBS+D-Cycloserine, and 2) accelerated iTBS+placebo. Participants will receive a weight-based dose of D-Cycloserine or placebo as an adjunct to iTBS (25mg/17.5kg of body weight).
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate a suicide risk model in patients receiving behavioral health care treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the implementation of the suicide risk model reduce suicide attempts? Researchers will compare the outcomes of patients identified by the model to those in a usual care group.
The goal of this mixed-methods study is to describe the association between the level of parent/adolescent discordance in the assessment of the adolescent's level of suicidal intentionality after a suicid attempt and the evolution of the suicidal crisis by assessing the evolution of the adolescent's suicidal intentionality between T0 and 3 months. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To show the association between the level of parent/adolescent discordance in the assessment of the adolescent's level of suicidal intent after a suicid attempt and various markers of the evolution of the suicidal crisis at 3 months. - Explore the experience of adolescents and their parents regarding the elements they consider relevant in assessing the adolescent's suicidal intent. Participants will be asked to complete various self- and hetero-questionnaires at T0 and T3
Suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people aged 12-17 years in the United States, yet many youth at risk for suicide are not identified or go untreated. Stepped care approaches have been shown to be effective at reducing suicide risk in clinical settings, including primary care. The goal of this hybrid I stepped wedge effectiveness-implementation study is to test the effectiveness of a population-based quality improvement (QI) intervention, entitled STARRS-PC (Stepped Approach to Reducing Risk of Suicide in Primary Care) compared to treatment as usual (TAU), in reducing the risk of suicidal behavior among youth in the pediatric primary care setting. STARRS-PC implements a clinical pathway for youth at elevated risk for suicide in pediatric primary care clinics. Clinical pathways are tools used by health professionals to guide evidence-informed practice. The STARRS-PC pathway consists of three evidence-based suicide clinical care processes: risk detection, assessment and triage, and, if needed, follow-up transitional care. STARRS-PC is guided by the Practical, Robust Implementation, and Sustainability Model (PRISM), which allows for the study of factors that influence effective implementation of the suicide prevention clinical pathway and is focused on scalability. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Will STARRS-PC be more effective than TAU at reducing the rate of suicide attempt at 12 months post-baseline (primary outcome)? - Will STARRS-PC be more effective than TAU at reducing suicidal ideation and non-suicidal self-injury, and improving family satisfaction at 12 months post-baseline (secondary outcomes)? - What are the barriers and facilitators of effective implementation and sustainability of STARRS-PC?
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?
The objective of this controlled, randomized, monocentric study is to compare the response rate of the call at 3 months of the groups with or without short message service (SMS) 48 hours before, for the subjects having benefited from the device "VigilanS Lorraine". The secondary objectives will be to appreciate the satisfaction of the subjects towards the sending of the SMS as well as to compare the delay of suicidal recidivism according to whether the subjects answered or not to the call of evaluation at 3 months of the passage to the act The main question it aims to answer is: What impact, on the rate of successful calls, could sending a text message 48 hours before the 3-month evaluation phone call have on subjects benefiting from the VigilanS device? The participants will be divided into 2 groups: - 1st group: SMS sent 48 hours before the 3-month evaluation call planned in the framework of the "VigilanS Lorraine" program. - 2nd group (control): evaluation call at 3 months planned within the framework of the "VigilanS Lorraine" system, not preceded by an SMS 48 hours before. The desired effect was an increase in the percentage of successful calls at 3 months, allowing for possible evaluations at 3 months in order to identify, evaluate and accompany subjects still in a suicidal crisis and thus avoid a recurrence of the act and thus a suicide.
