Filter by:Amid consistently worsening suicide rates, in 2012 the U.S.Surgeon General's National Strategy for Suicide Prevention proposed to "change the narrative" about suicide prevention to include a focus on promoting hope and belongingness. Despite hopelessness and thwarted belongingness being among the most replicated risk factors for suicide, many widely implemented suicide prevention efforts instead emphasize the identification of acute suicide risk and referral to mental health treatment services. However, there are very few health service interventions known to reduce suicides among those identified as high risk. Those interventions shown to be effective have not achieved the wide scale implementation necessary to alter the trend of increasing suicide deaths. New interventions are needed, and one promising, scalable intervention with a novel approach to addressing the risk factors advocated by the Surgeon General is peer mentorship. A peer mentorship intervention, PREVAIL, has been piloted in a two-site randomized controlled trial (N=70) and is acceptable and feasible with enrollment of nearly half of eligible high-risk patients, mean completion of over 6 mentorship sessions, and 85% of sessions meeting fidelity standards for addressing the intended targets of hope and belongingness. The aims of this hybrid effectiveness-implementation study are: Specific Aim 1: Determine the effectiveness of the PREVAIL peer mentorship intervention for reducing suicide attempts and suicidal ideation among recently hospitalized adult psychiatric patients at high risk for suicide. Specific Aim 2: Examine the mechanisms of peer mentorship by measuring the effects of PREVAIL on potential mediators,including hope and belongingness. Specific Aim 3: Identify barriers and facilitators to implementation of PREVAIL.
Individuals with alcohol or drug use problems who are hospitalized for suicide attempt are at high risk for reattempt. This treatment development study adapts a promising outpatient intervention to prevent suicide reattempt in order to administer it during hospitalization to individuals with alcohol and drug use problems, and to test the adapted intervention in a pilot randomized controlled trial.
The main objective of this study is to show MRI functional and structural differences between depressed elderly patients with a history of attempted suicide compared to depressed elderly patients with no history of attempted suicide and to elderly subjects with no personal history of depression or attempted suicide (healthy controls).
There is a strong link between the alcohol consumption and the suicidal risk. Indeed there is an increase of the risk of suicide in case of chronic or acute alcohol consumption. However why the alcohol consumption increase the suicidal risk is unknown. The hypothesis of this study is that the alcohol consumption induced disinhibition and facilitates the suicide attempt without premeditation
This study will determine the efficacy of Safety Planning Intervention (SPI) compared to receiving risk factors and warning sign information (RWI) in recent suicide attempters during the 6 months following an acute care visit on: (1) suicidal behaviors; (2) mental health/substance use treatment engagement; (3) suicide-related coping strategies; (4) suicidal ideation; and (5) use of means restriction.
VigilanS is an innovative healthcare program. Participants of this program are all patients leaving in the Nord-Pas de Calais region who survived a suicide attempt. General goals of the post hospitalization monitoring system for suicidal attempters are: - Standardize general healthcare's practices by offering alert networks and innovative response procedures in case of suicidal crisis. - Coordinate the various health partners' actions around the patient (GP, psychiatrist, psychologist). - Contribute to reducing mortality and morbidity by suicide (subsequent suicide) in determined territories. The evaluation of VigilanS will be quantitative and qualitative.
The purpose of the study is to describe the number of diagnosis of bipolar depression and comorbid suicidal behavior according to the diagnostic criteria of the DSM-5.
Assessment of the feasibility of a monitoring device by SMS in which messages are sent by the caregiver after a suicidal act.
This is a multicenter controlled intervention study that aims to assess the efficacy of a telephone follow-up program for the prevention of suicidal behavior in adults discharged from general hospitals after a suicide attempt. The hypothesis is that the implementation of this program is associated with reduced rates of suicide reattempts in these patients and also with delayed reattempts in them.
Suicide is one of the most devastating events in society at all levels. The primary goal of this study is to predict suicide in adolescents at risk. We will utilize blood biomarker measurement and clinical risk factor scales to develop a tool to identify adolescents at risk for suicide earlier, which will allow clinicians to prescribe timely treatment and prevent suicide.
