Filter by:Objectives: To determine the feasibility and acceptability of the culturally adapted CMAP Plus CBT based Motivational Interviewing (MICBT) called CMAP Plus for self-harm in individuals with substance use disorder (SUD) in a feasibility randomised controlled trial. To explore participants' experiences with CMAP Plus intervention. Study design and setting: The study will be a mixed-method feasibility randomised controlled trial of CMAP Plus as an intervention for Self-Harm in individuals with SUD in Pakistan. The study will be conducted in six major cities in Pakistan: Rawalpindi, Karachi, Peshawar, Hyderabad, Multan and Lahore. Sample size: A total of N=80 participants will be recruited from hospital settings and addiction rehabilitation centers in participating study sites.
The aim of the present research is to explore whether a brief, smartphone app-based intervention based on psychological theory can help adolescents to avoid self-harming. The smartphone app will be piloted in a randomised controlled trial (RCT) with adolescents. 90 adolescents will be recruited and assigned to one of three conditions: (a) intervention group who will complete the smartphone-based VHS app for self-harm (n = 30), (b) control group (n = 30) who will complete paper-and-pencil modified VHS, without the app, and (c) control group who will complete measures via the app but not the VHS (n = 30).
Treatment of self harm scars with fractionated laser.
This study is being completed to examine different combinations of technology-augmented strategies to identify an effective Adaptive intervention (AI) addressing post-discharge suicide risk with high implementation potential.
This study is a large population-based analysis in the United Kingdom (UK) using routine primary care data to investigate the risk of mental health conditions in children, adolescents and young adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, compared to those without Inflammatory Bowel Disease. The study will also compare the impacts on quality-of-life outcomes and use of healthcare services between people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease with and without mental health conditions.
Objectives: - To asses the feasibility and acceptability of a culturally adapted manual assisted brief psychological intervention (CMAP) plus Learning through Play (LTP) for refugee mothers with history of self-harm having children 0-33 months. (Integrated intervention called CMAP Plus) - To assess if CMAP Plus will reduce the repetition of self-harm in refugee mothers having children aged between 0-33 months. - To determine if the intervention improves infant development and maternal attachment. - To explore participants experiences with the intervention. Study design and setting: This will be a feasibility cluster randomized control trial (cRCT) of culturally adapted CMAP Plus LTP intervention with refugee mothers from Quetta and Peshawar, Pakistan. Sample size: We aim to recruit a sample of 80 refugee mothers in the study.
Self-harm is now seen as an epidemic affecting young people across the world and particularly in low and middle-income countries (LMIC) such as Pakistan. Young people in Pakistan often come across many troubles such as mental health and family problems, stress at school and social and economic inequalities. A youth suicide prevention programme is needed in Pakistan. Such programme will be based on secondary schools (where most young people are) and will support schools to work together with many public agencies to tackle the full range of troubles that young people face. Our main research aim is to work together with multiple stakeholders to culturally adapt and test the feasibility of three SEPAK interventions to prevent suicide among students in secondary schools in Pakistan (aged 12 to 17 years).
The aim of the present research is to explore whether a brief intervention based on psychological theory can help people to avoid self-harming. The intervention is the Volitional Help Sheet (VHS), or "IF-THEN" plans, which will be tested in the context of trying to reduce self-harm. Each participant will be randomly allocated to one of two conditions. The two conditions are: (1) a control condition, and (2) intervention (form multiple implementation intentions from a drop-down menu). The main outcome measure will be reduction in self-harm, which will be self-reported
The project is a collaboration between The National Centre for Suicide Research and Prevention (NSSF) and clinical units with Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) programmes. A methodological and technological platform has been established that enables clinicians to deliver high quality treatments over extended periods of time, to evaluate their own performance and productivity and to report it in a uniform and systematic way that will enable comparison across clinical settings and programmes. The collected data constitute the basis for conducting the clinical study with the overall aim to study predictors of the clinical course and treatment response in patients admitted to DBT programmes in Norway.
The purpose of this study is to explore the tolerability and effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as a potential treatment for non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). NSSI is the deliberate attempt to harm oneself, most often through cutting or burning, without suicidal intent. NSSI is a maladaptive emotion-regulation strategy often triggered by negative emotions, especially those involving feelings of rejection. tDCS is a low-cost, portable, well-tolerated, non-invasive form of brain stimulation that delivers a low current to a specific area of the brain via electrodes. Several studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in treating an array of conditions, depending on electrode placement, including depression and chronic pain. tDCS may also facilitate adaptive emotion regulation; researchers have also successfully used tDCS to reduce negative emotions and aggressive responses to social rejection. The investigators therefore seek to explore tDCS as a potential treatment for NSSI. This pilot feasibility study seeks 1) to examine how at-home, self-administered tDCS is tolerated in a sample of individuals who engage in frequent NSSI; 2) to gather pilot data regarding changes in emotional and neural responses during a social task after a series of tDCS sessions in this clinical population of individuals who engage in NSSI; 3) to gather pilot data on the effects of tDCS on NSSI behaviors and urges. The investigators seek to recruit a sample of 22 individuals who engage in frequent NSSI to complete all study procedures. Individuals will be randomized to receive active- or sham-tDCS for two twenty-minute applications on each of six alternating days over approximately two weeks. Participants will be trained on tDCS self-administration, which will be supervised during each session over a videoconferencing platform by a researcher. Functional MRI (fMRI) may be performed at baseline and again after the completion of 12 sessions of tDCS. Subjects' NSSI and urges to engage in NSSI will be recorded for four weeks in real-time, using an iPod- based system that reminds subjects to stop at certain times during the day to record their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This will allow measurement of NSSI urges and behaviors for one week before, two weeks during, and one week after the tDCS intervention. The long-term goal of this study is to identify a novel form of treatment for NSSI and to better understand NSSI pathophysiology.
