NCT ID: NCT04720911 Completed - Suicide Clinical Trials

Technology-Assisted Systems Change for Suicide Prevention

TASCS
Start date: February 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Effective prevention of suicide among adult emergency department (ED) patients hinges on an indispensable component: the ability to translate evidence-based interventions into routine clinical practice on a broad scale and with fidelity to the intervention components so they can have a maximum public health effect. However, there are critical barriers that prevent such translation, including a lack of trained clinicians, competing priorities in busy EDs, and incompatibility between requirements of evidence-based interventions (such as completing telephone coaching with patients after the ED visit) and the workflow and infrastructure typically present in most EDs. The proposed new intervention will address these barriers by building a suite of technologies that will make it easier to implement the Emergency Department Safety Assessment and Follow-up Evaluation (ED-SAFE), an evidence-based suicide intervention targeting perceived social support, behavioral activation and impulse control, revolutionizing the field's ability to scale and implement this intervention and acting as a model for efforts to implement other existing and emerging suicide interventions.

NCT ID: NCT04606173 Completed - Suicide Prevention Clinical Trials

Adjunctive Team Enhanced Intervention to Improve Suicide Prevention Evidence-Based Practices in Primary Care

Start date: June 24, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a brief educational intervention (TEACH) that includes evidence-based strategies designed to improve task-specific teamwork and its impact (vs. standard practice) on teamwork among primary care team members and on evidence-based suicide prevention care provided to Veterans in Primary Care.

NCT ID: NCT04565951 Completed - Suicide Prevention Clinical Trials

Increasing Help-Seeking Behavior Among Transitioning Veterans at Risk for Suicide With Online Gatekeeper Training

Start date: March 13, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a gatekeeper training called VA S.A.V.E. which was developed through a partnership between the VA and the PsychArmor Training Institute. Gatekeeper training teaches "gatekeepers" skills in how to identify a person with suicide risk, inquire about suicidal thoughts, and help make a connection to professional treatment. VA S.A.V.E. is a brief, novel online gatekeeper training that was created and designed specifically for Veterans and their family and friends. In this study, the investigators will recruit Veterans who have recently transitioned out of the military, as well as their family and friends. Participants in the study will be asked to complete a survey, watch the VA S.A.V.E. training, and complete several follow-up surveys over six months. A small subset of participants will also be invited to participate in an interview.

NCT ID: NCT04490265 Completed - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Suicide Prevention for Patients With Chronic Pain

Start date: May 20, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=60) will be randomized to receive remote-PST or remote-supportive psychotherapy. We will assess problem-solving deficits through self-report, objective neuropsychological assessment and caregiver report. We have used an adaptive design so that if there is strong evidence for target engagement, we will continue with the trial as a fully powered clinical trial (i.e., the end of the current proposal will act as the interim assessment) to the determine the efficacy of remote PST for patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=190) to improve suicide outcomes.

NCT ID: NCT04486677 Completed - Feasibility Clinical Trials

Caring Cards to and From Veterans: A Peer Approach to Suicide Prevention

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

Veteran suicide is a national problem; social disconnection is an important contributor to suicide risk. This pilot study will recruit Veterans to take part in a peer-centered intervention called Caring Cards (CC). CC gives Veterans who have a history of increased suicide risk the opportunity to make cards that are then sent to Veterans who are currently at high-risk for suicide. This study will directly benefit Veterans and contribute to the quality of services provided by VA by creating a safe, creative space for Veterans with lived experience related to suicide risk to join together to provide messages of hope, community, and resilience to their peers at risk for suicide. Helping Veterans support one another provides a bridge for social connection, which may help prevent Veteran suicide. This intervention may also improve Veterans' satisfaction with VA healthcare and engagement with mental health treatment.

NCT ID: NCT04222673 Completed - Suicide Clinical Trials

Peer Based Suicide Prevention

Start date: May 14, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Veterans Health Administration (VHA) suicide rates remain high, requiring new approaches. VHA patients tend to have high medical and behavioral health care needs that cause disruption in their lives and heighten their risk of suicide. This study will adapt and pilot test an intervention that expands the focus of care for VHA patients with high risk for suicide to building a life of self-respect, meaning, and connectedness in one's local community. The pilot intervention will involve receiving support and mentorship from a fellow Veteran living with the same challenges who has been trained in helping others manage their disabilities while achieving specific life goals (i.e., a 'Peer Specialist'). Results from this study will demonstrate the preliminary effectiveness of supplementing the VHA's current clinical approaches to suicide prevention with support provided by a trained Peer Specialist that offers empathy, hope, and practical advice that stemming from 'lived experience' of disability and recovery.

NCT ID: NCT04221269 Completed - Schizophrenia Clinical Trials

Suicide Prevention Intervention for Schizophrenia-Spectrum Disorders

CLASP-S
Start date: December 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The current project is a pilot randomized controlled trial to test the Coping Long-term with Active Suicide Program for schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (CLASP-S) for patients following a psychiatric hospitalization. Participants will be assigned to enhanced treatment as usual (ETAU) alone vs CLASP-S plus ETAU. Participants complete assessments at baseline during their psychiatric hospitalization and at 3 months (mid-treatment) and 6 months (post-treatment) following discharge. The primary aim is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of CLASP-S. The secondary aim is to estimate the effects of CLASP-S on reducing suicidal thoughts and behaviors relative to ETAU.

NCT ID: NCT03940508 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Engaging Black Youth in Depression and Suicide Prevention Treatment Within Urban Schools

Start date: January 31, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Completing evidence-based treatments for depression has been shown to be particularly problematic for Black adolescents. If Black adolescents' depression treatment needs are to be met, the engagement challenges and the factors that lessen the success of treatment in the "real world" must be addressed. The investigators will examine the effectiveness of the Making Connections Intervention (MCI) and investigate key mediators of both engagement and response to treatment for depression. The MCI is a 1-2 session, evidence-based intervention designed to improve engagement, perceived relevance, and treatment satisfaction among depressed, Black adolescents. The study also uses tailored outreach strategies for adolescents and parents by including innovative digital content such as a web page/app along with other digital products. This study will address an important public health issue: How best to connect Black adolescents with depression to treatment in clinically meaningful ways, and how best to deliver evidence-based treatment to them through school-based services.

NCT ID: NCT03755206 Completed - Clinical trials for Program Sustainability

Sust-AIns: Sustainment of Suicide Prevention Programs in American Indian Settings

Sust-AIns
Start date: December 10, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The proposed study is part of the research project for a National Institute of Mental Health K01 grant to Dr. Haroz. The overall research project is focused on understanding how to sustain evidenced-based mental and behavioral health programs in tribal contexts. The aim of this study is to pilot test sustainment strategy interventions across tribal settings using mixed-methods.

NCT ID: NCT03114917 Completed - Psychosis Clinical Trials

Cognitive AppRoaches to coMbatting Suicidality

CARMS
Start date: May 12, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomised controlled trial which investigates the effectiveness of CARMS (Cognitive AppRoaches to coMbatting Suicidality) therapy in reducing suicidal thoughts and how well CARMS works in practice within the NHS. The trial will compare two groups of people with psychosis who are using NHS mental health services. One group will carry on with their usual treatment. The other group will be offered 24 weekly sessions of CARMS therapy, plus their usual treatment.
