Clinical Trial Summary

This study will test a patient decision aid about safe firearm storage during suicidal crisis. The investigators hypothesize that participants with higher quality decisions after the decision aid will be more likely to change their firearm storage to reduce access during the time of crisis.


Clinical Trial Description

Limiting access to a firearms during suicidal crisis can save lives. This study will test a patient decision aid about safe firearm storage during crisis. The investigators will enroll 60 adult emergency department patients being evaluated for suicidal risk and have at least one firearm at home. If available, the investigators will also enroll a family member or friend. Participants will randomly receive one of two things: the decision aid or general suicide prevention information. A week later, the investigators will call participants to see how both groups choose to store their firearms. This trial tests the acceptability of the decision aid, effects on decision making, effect on home storage, effect on suicide outcomes, and feasibility of a larger trial. The investigators hypothesize that participants with higher quality decisions after the decision aid will be more likely to change their firearm storage to reduce access during the time of crisis; should the pilot demonstrate feasibility, in a subsequent larger trial this hypothesis would be tested directly. ;
