The current study aims to evaluate the impact of long (>5 days) and/or compulsory psychiatric inpatient care on subsequent healthcare utilization for self-harm and suicide in people with borderline personality disorder, a condition characterized by frequent self-harm. The basis for this study is the diversity of clinical practices across Swedish regions. By categorizing clinics based on their practices with respect to long and/or compulsory psychiatric inpatient care, it is possible to explore the impact of these practices on subsequent somatic and psychiatric healthcare, including emergency care due to self-harm as well as on completed suicides. All psychiatric clinics across Sweden authorized to administer compulsory care for adults, totalling 78 clinics will be included. Each clinic per specific calendar year will represent one participant, identified by the clinic's name and the respective year (e.g., Umeå2010, Linköping2013, Malmö2022). Data collection will involve the utilization of the national registers to capture outcome measures and account for confounding factors. The participants will be ranked based on a composite variable, which includes the average number of days spent in inpatient compulsory care and other psychiatric inpatient care exceeding 5 days, among individuals diagnosed with BPD. The top quartile of participants will be compared with the bottom quartile.
The goal of this qualitative observational study is to explore the experiences of children and their carers, receiving occupational therapy for self-harm and the experiences of health professionals delivering these interventions. The child cohort within the study will have a history of self-harm and have been under the care of Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the experiences of children and their carers who have received occupational therapy interventions as either a standalone, or adjunct, treatment for self-harm, whilst under the care of Tier 4 CAMHS service. - What are the experiences of healthcare professionals delivering occupational therapy interventions working within a T4 CAMHS service. - To understand the participants views on whether occupational therapy interventions are a viable and effective approach to address self-harm amongst young people. Participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire and take part in a single semi-structured interview. 25% of participants may be asked to take part in a further in depth semi-structured interview.
This Study will evaluate the implementation of 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
This is a mixed-methods study. The quantitative component will comprise of a multicentre rater-blind, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of AISHA in addition to treatment as usual (TAU) compared to TAU alone in Pakistan. In-depth interviews and focus groups with other stakeholders will take place to consider the wider implementation of AISHA in mental health services in Pakistan.

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).
