Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of a safety planning intervention in suicidal attempters by improving their psychosocial functional outcome and therefore enhancing their ability to perform the activities of daily living. As secondary objectives, assessment of the effectiveness of a safety planning intervention in suicidal attempters will be performed by determining cognitive performance (particularly decision-making, inhibition and attention), quality of life, clinical state and relating all these data with neuroimaging correlates. Target neuroimaging areas will be the orbitofrontal cortex and dorsal prefrontal cortex.
The goal of this Fast-Track Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project is to test the newly expanded Jaspr2.0, developed to efficiently and reliably aid delivery of recommended best-practices for the treatment of suicidal ideation in adults, including suicidal individuals who also misuse alcohol. Jaspr1.0 was developed by the PIs under NIMH SBIR Phase I and Phase II awards (R43MH108222 & R44MH108222; Dimeff & Jobes). This current proposal will expand Jaspr content to include content relevant to primary care and brief interventions for the treatment of suicidal ideation and alcohol misuse. Jaspr2.0 will include techniques for prevention of suicidal behaviors (ideation, planning, attempts) and death by suicide while providing support in the moment after discharge via a companion mobile app, Jaspr-at-Home. Jaspr2.0 will include: psychoeducation, behavioral skills training, crisis stabilization planning, lethal means management, brief interventions for the treatment of suicidal ideation and alcohol misuse, and messages of hope, wisdom, and insights from people with lived experience (PLE). Investigators will conduct a 12-week randomized controlled clinical trial (N=120) comparing Jaspr2.0 (n=60) to an active control condition (Virtual Hope Box + electronic wellness resources brochure; n=60) in adults experiencing suicidal ideation. Participants will be randomly assigned to condition utilizing a minimization randomization procedure to match participants across condition on suicide severity, depression severity, and alcohol misuse. To ensure a sufficient sample of individuals who misuse alcohol, no fewer than 35% (n=42) of the sample will be comprised of individuals who experience harmful or hazardous levels of alcohol use. Participants will be assessed at baseline, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. Investigators will conduct a small 6-week pilot trial (N=20; Jaspr n=15; Active Control n=5) prior to commencing the full RCT to test both study procedures and Jaspr2.0.
Parents occupy a central place in the emergency care of suicidal adolescents and young adults. However, from 15 to 25yo, three different administrative situations exist in France: - <16yo: admission to a child ED by a team trained to receive the youngest patients. - 16-18yo: admission to an adult ED by team devoted to adult care, no exit without parents' authorization. - >18yo: admission to an adult ED by team. Laying on qualitative observational protocol and a Delphi approach, this study will explore the perspective of adolescents and young adults following a suicidal attempt, the perspective of their parents, and the perspective of their healthcare professionals to build guidelines for parental involvement in care of suicidal youths.
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.
The primary aim of this grant is to conduct pilot testing on a novel personalized mobile intervention for suicide - Mobile Application to Prevent Suicide (MAPS) - and to establish feasibility, acceptability, safety, and primary outcomes (i.e., suicidal ideation and behavior; re-hospitalization).
Suicide is the act of killing oneself and accounts for one death every 40 seconds around the world. In the UK, over 75% of suicides are completed by men. Suicidal ideation is a symptom of depression and is assessed when diagnosing depressive disorder. Men are three times more likely to complete suicide than women but half as likely to be diagnosed with depression, and therefore risk missing out on potentially lifesaving treatments. Men experiencing depression and associated suicidality are less likely to demonstrate traditional symptoms such as hopelessness and sadness, and more likely to engage in unhelpful coping strategies such as avoidance through over-working, substance misuse, or risk-taking behaviours, and may feel that they have lost control. Previous research has shown a link between rumination and increased suicidal intent. Unhelpful coping strategies, distorted beliefs about uncontrollability, and thinking processes such as rumination, are central to the metacognitive model of psychological distress and are targeted in Metacognitive Therapy (MCT). The aim of this project is to identify if any aspects of the thinking styles described above are present in a sample of men who are suicidal. The project will also explore beliefs about masculinity and how these beliefs might impact help-seeking. In order to achieve these aims, 15 male service-users without a severe and enduring mental illness, who are receiving care from the Home Based Treatment Team following suicidal thoughts or actions, will be invited to take complete some questionnaires and partake in an interview.
Suicidal behavior among adolescents is a major public health problem. Exacerbation of suicidal risk most often occurs when the young person is in his or her natural environment, far from the health care system. Therefore, real-time risk detection would make it possible to deploy immediate action interventions. A smartphone application for personalized assessment and intervention would enable patients to better anticipate and manage suicidal crises and stay connected to the healthcare system. The increasing use of smartphones and mobile applications among adolescents supports the feasibility and value of such follow-up among young people. In a first phase of this project, investigators first undertook to develop bae: a smartphone application adapted to a population of adolescents collecting information on their suicidal behaviour in a contextualized manner, with the added benefit of offering emotion management modules as well as personalized psychoeducational messages and alerts delivered to young people in the event of a crisis. The application is intended to be a complementary tool to the usual treatment. Before testing its effectiveness and due to the novelty of the intervention, a rigorous feasibility study in a real clinical context is necessary to ensure acceptability and satisfaction with the use of the bae application. The objective is to evaluate, over a 6-month period, the acceptability of a follow-up of a population of 100 adolescents (12-17 years) at risk of suicidal driving via the bae smartphone application.
Suicide is one of the leading causes of avoidable death worldwide. Gathering population-representative data on the incidence of suicidal behavior, as well as developing effective secondary prevention strategies are imperative parts of evidence-based public health policies, currently lacking in Spain. The Suicide Prevention and Intervention Study (SURVIVE) is a multi-site-cohort study with nested randomized-controlled clinical trials. The principal aims of the SURVIVE study are to determine the incidence of suicide attempts in Spain and to investigate the efficacy of two secondary prevention programs.
The aim of this project is to assess if adding one of two structured suicide specific psychological interventions to a standardised clinical care approach improves outcomes for consumers presenting to a Mental Health Service with a suicide attempt. The standardised care approach involves a Suicide Prevention Pathway (SPP) modelled on the Zero Suicide Framework. The Attempted Suicide Short Intervention Program (ASSIP) is a manualised therapy composed of three therapy sessions following a suicide attempt, with subsequent follow up over two years with personalised mailed letters. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)-Based Psychoeducational Intervention is a manualised approach involving brief CBT for suicide in five 60 minute sessions. The intervention incorporates skills development and emphasises internal self-management. We will compare outcomes for: 1. The Attempted Suicide Short Intervention Program (ASSIP) + SPP, versus SPP alone 2. Five Sessions of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) + SPP, versus SPP alone 3. CBT + SPP versus ASSIP + SPP. Hypotheses: 1. The use of suicide specific psychological interventions (ASSIP; CBT) combined with a comprehensive clinical suicide prevention pathway (SPP) will have better outcomes than the clinical suicide prevention pathway alone. 2. Outcomes for the ASSIP + SPP and CBT + SPP will significantly differ. 3. Cost-benefit analyses will significantly differ between ASSIP and CBT.
Context: Suicide is the 2nd cause of death during adolescence Compliance with post SA care is low and variable with effective compliance ranging from 17.5% to 47% . Therefore, prevention programs should also focus on high-risk individuals with a previous history of SA. Adolescents and young adults are considered to be digital natives, they are therefore a relevant population for the testing of Smartphone Application. Project: The Investigators propose an innovative and new approach to prevent SA and Suicide for patients, based on a mobile healthcare application. The program is an add-on to the usual care process. Study: In a multicentric randomized pilot study with 15 to 35 years-old patients having previous SA, the primary goal for pilot study is to observe the filling rate of the application (feasibility).
