Filter by:The investigators are interested in learning more about how the role of mothers' emotions has on the transmission of suicide risk to children. Eligible participants will be invited to participate in a baseline assessment, and 4 follow-up assessments in the next year. This research study is a randomized control trial. Participants that choose to enroll are randomly assigned, that is by chance (like by flipping a coin) to receive DBT Skills Training or treatment as usual (TAU). Participants may also be selected for DBT skills training, it which would occur once a week for 6 months.
This project aims to adapt the parent component of Safe Alternatives for Teens and Youth (SAFETY) outpatient intervention to SAFETY-Parent (SAFETY-P), a self-paced interactive learning module for parents, to be implemented as an augmentation for youth being seen for suicidal ideation, suicidal behavior, or recent suicide attempts across multiple settings at Nationwide Children's Hospital (NCH, Columbus, Ohio).
This study aims to use a retrospective cohort approach to explore the impact of lithium carbonate on suicide and self-harm related events among adolescents and young adults with bipolar disorder in China.The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effects of lithium carbonate on suicidal ideation in adolescents and young adults with bipolar disorder in China. Secondary objectives include exploring its effects on preventing suicide attempts, non-suicidal self-injury, and aggressive behaviors in this population.
Brief Admission by self-referral (BA) is a standardized treatment model, providing patient-controlled and person-centered care. It was developed to reduce self-harm and compulsory care by promoting autonomy. Randomized clinical trials have not yielded significant between group differences with respect to inpatient care, including compulsory care. The major difficulty in evaluating BA is preventing the control group from cross-contamination, as in the implementation process of BA, all physicians, all inpatient and outpatient staff as well as managers need to be informed and undergo basic education regarding the intervention. As BA addresses a prevalent and frustrating issue in psychiatric health care, there is considerable risk that the approach leaks to the control group, reducing the possibility to detect between-group differences. In the current study this will be addressed through a register-based approach, comparing similar clinics, implementing BA at different timepoints over time. Individuals with traits of borderline personality disorder will be included and comparisons will be made with respect to compulsory care, voluntary inpatient care and mortality.
The central hypothesis is that biometric data can continuously monitor and allow for early identification/intervention of escalating suicidal symptoms. The rationale is that improved outpatient monitoring through wearable technology can create a more objective platform to provide the ability to identify a worsening condition and utilize patient-specific just-in-time therapeutics developed with mental health providers for suicidal adolescents.
The aim of the current project is twofold, namely 1. To gain insight into needs related to help-seeking among men with (previous) suicidal thoughts (STUDY 1). More specifically, this study examines help-seeking behaviour, possible barriers to seeking help and needs with regard to existing tools and health care among men who had suicidal thoughts. In other words, is there a difference in help-seeking behaviour between men and women with suicidal thoughts in the past and what factors contribute to this difference? More specifically: 1. To what extent do men with suicidal thoughts in the past recognize their need for help, compared to women with suicidal thoughts in the past? 2. What barriers and needs do men with suicidal thoughts in the past experience towards seeking help, compared to women with suicidal thoughts in the past? 3. What barriers and needs do men with suicidal thoughts in the past experience to remain engaged in help, compared to women with suicidal thoughts in the past? 2. To map out needs of healthcare providers in working with men with suicidal thoughts and/or behaviour (STUDY 2). More specifically, how do healthcare providers experience working with men who are feeling suicidal and what are their experienced barriers and needs. Two main research questions were formulated: 1. How do health care providers experience working with men (in comparison to women or people of other genders) who are feeling suicidal? 2. What needs and barriers do health care providers experience when working with men (in comparison to women or people of other genders) who are feeling suicidal?
This study plans to learn more about the use of one of two self-guided online cognitive behavioral therapy courses. One is focused on symptoms of depression and one is focused on history of suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
In this double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial, the investigators aimed to examine the effect of accelerated piTBS on suicide risk in a group of treatment-resistant patients with MDD (i.e., TRD), using an extensive suicide assessment scale the primary outcome. The investigators hypothesized that this intensified treatment protocol would be safe in TRD patients with suicide ideations and would result in significant decreases in suicide risk in the active treatment condition as compared to the sham condition.
Background: Practical and psychological barriers make it difficult for people with Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors (STBs) to get professional help. Online interventions have the potential to overcome many of these barriers, but the online interventions to date have produced small or short-lived effects and have only been found to reduce suicidal thoughts, not behaviors. This is a crucial limitation, since previous studies have shown that interventions that reduce suicidal thoughts often do not prevent suicide attempts, and vice versa. Methods: A fully remote randomized controlled trial will be conducted in which 364 participants of 16 years and older will be recruited through the website of a suicide prevention helpline in the Netherlands and randomized with an allocation ratio of 1:1 to either Brief Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicide Prevention (BCBT-SP) or a semi-guided online self-help course that has previously been found superior to waitlist in reducing suicidal thoughts. The primary outcome of the study is the number of suicide attempts, measured with the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale. Secondary outcomes are self-reported suicidal ideation, healthcare utilization, treatment satisfaction, adverse effects, and quality of life. All outcomes will be assessed at baseline, immediately after the treatment and at 18 months follow-up. Discussion: If remote BCBT-SP proves effective, the findings of this study will add to the evidence base of BCBT-SP as one of very few psychological interventions with replicated effectiveness in preventing suicide attempts and provide the first evidence to date that remote interventions cannot only reduce suicidal thoughts, but also prevent suicidal behavior.
Suicide is the leading cause of death among young people (YP) aged 10 to 25 years in the Netherlands. In addition, YP report high rates of suicidal ideation (16%). While suicidal behavior is a complex phenomenon with many factors and causes, the role of social media is becoming more prominent, especially for YP. Social media has been shown to be a source where YP can find support, but it's also a place where suicidal behavior is glorified or normalized, which can be triggering or harmful to other social media consumers. The #Chatsafe guidelines were developed by Orygen Australia to better equip young people to communicate safely about suicide on social media. These guidelines are supported by a social media campaign to make the content of the guidelines more accessible to them. The #Chatsafe intervention consists of both the guidelines and the social media campaign. A small-scale Australian feasibility study showed promising results in terms of the acceptance and safety of the campaign, and safety regarding communicating about suicide on social media platforms. Currently, in Australia it is tested to what extent these results hold up in a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) (Robinson et al., 2023). With funding from the Dutch National Agenda for Suicide Prevention, a contextualized replication study is conducted. The aim of this study is to determine whether the #Chatsafe intervention has an effect on the way in which Dutch YP communicate online about suicide.
