Adolescents Clinical Trial
Official title:
Detecting Risk of Suicide in a Pediatric Emergency Department
Objective:
The ultimate goal of this project is to enhance the capacity of non-mental health clinicians
working in an Emergency Departments (ED) to recognize and initiate further evaluation of
children and adolescents at risk for suicide.
Aim 1: To re-validate the Risk of Suicide Questionnaire (RSQ), a screening tool that assists
non-psychiatric clinicians in rapidly detecting suicide risk in pediatric patients, in a
pediatric ED mental health population in the Children s National Medical Center (CNMC) ED.
Aim 2: To determine the utility of a suicide screening tool, a revised version of the Risk of
Suicide Questionnaire, to detect suicide risk in pediatric patients presenting to the CNMC ED
for non-mental health reasons.
Study population:
The study population includes all patients admitted to the CNMC Emergency Department, ages 10
to 21, during the data collection weeks of the study period. Both patients admitted for
mental health and non-mental health reasons will be included in the study.
Design:
This will be a prospective instrument development /validation study. During a designated
study week, all mental health patients and a random subset of non-mental health patients
admitted to the CNMC ED will be approached after their triage assessment. Following informed
consent and assent, a 17-item suicide assessment tool created for this research project
(RSQ-Revised), as well as a brief background questionnaire will be administered. These
questions will be validated against a gold standard suicide assessment questionnaire, which
will be administered to the subjects directly after the RSQ-Revised. The study aims to
develop a brief suicide screening tool to be used at triage for all patients entering the ED.
Measures
Measures include the proposed 17-item screening questionnaire and a gold standard assessment
of suicidal ideation in adolescents, the Suicide Ideation Questionnaire (SIQ).
Objective:
The ultimate goal of this project is to enhance the capacity of non-mental health clinicians
working in an Emergency Department (ED) to recognize and initiate further evaluation of
children and adolescents at risk for suicide.
- Aim 1: To re-validate the Risk of Suicide Questionnaire (RSQ), a screening tool that
assists non-psychiatric clinicians in rapidly detecting suicide risk in pediatric
patients, in a pediatric ED mental health population.
- Aim 2: To determine the utility of a suicide screening tool, a revised version of the
Risk of Suicide Questionnaire, to detect suicide risk in pediatric patients presenting
to a pediatric ED for non-mental health reasons.
Study population:
This is a multi-site study and will include all patients admitted to three pediatric EDs (the
Children s National Medical Center (CNMC) ED, Children s Hospital Boston (CHB) ED, and
Nationwide Children s Hospital (NCH) ED), ages 10 to 21, during the data collection days of
the study period. Both patients admitted for mental health and non-mental health reasons will
be included in the study.
For ease of reading, from here on in, the three pediatric EDs participating in this
multi-site study will be referred to as the PEDIATRIC ED.
Design:
This will be a prospective instrument development / validation study. During 5 to 10 weekdays
of the month, all mental health patients and a random subset of non-mental health patients
admitted to the PEDIATRIC ED will be approached after their triage assessment. Following
informed consent and assent, a 17-item suicide assessment tool created for this research
project (RSQ-Revised), as well as a brief background questionnaire will be administered.
These questions will be validated against a gold standard suicide assessment questionnaire,
which will be administered to the subjects directly after the RSQ-Revised. The study aims to
develop a brief suicide screening tool to be used at triage for all patients entering the ED.
Measures
Measures include the proposed 17-item screening questionnaire and a gold standard assessment
