Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of a suicide prevention strategy delivered via telehealth in Emergency Departments. We will compare implementation of the Safety Planning Intervention plus follow-up calls (SPI+) delivered by Emergency Department (ED) staff to SPI+ delivered via ED referral to an off-site Suicide Prevention Consultation Center (SPCC).
This randomized comparative effectiveness trial will compare two evidence-based approaches to emergency care for youth ages 15-24 who present to the Emergency Department (ED) with suicidal ideation or behavior. OUtcomes will be monitored at baseline and at 3, 6 & 12 month follow-up assessments.
In the UK, suicide is the leading cause of death in young people and have increased in recent years. Areas in the North of England appear particularly at risk. University students represent one vulnerable group. 42% of students contemplate suicide in any one-year period. Suicidal thinking is an important indicator of distress and clinical need, which predicts subsequent suicidal experiences and worse mental health. It is therefore an important target for clinical treatment and early intervention. However, evidenced based interventions for targeting suicidal thinking in students are lacking. This project will evaluate the feasibility of a novel psychological intervention, called the Broad Minded Affective Coping (BMAC) intervention. The BMAC aims to increase peoples' access to positive thoughts and emotions to help them to break out of cycles of negative mood and suicidal thinking. It is targeted, protocolised, and deliverable by a range of professional groups. Our existing co-development work with young people has suggested that it is acceptable and helpful to University students. This randomised controlled feasibility trial of the BMAC intervention for suicidal thinking in university students. Participants will be randomised to either a risk assessment and signposting plus the BMAC (n = 33), or risk assessment and signposting alone (n = 33). The study will assess outcomes at baseline and after eight weeks, 16 weeks, and 24 weeks. The study will explore the safety, feasibility and acceptability of delivering the intervention and trial procedures. Embedded qualitative interviews with staff and participants, and field notes, will help us to understand the potential factors affecting acceptability and delivery of the BMAC intervention and conduct of the trial, and the proposed underlying mechanisms of change. The project will be a crucial step in evaluating the BMAC for suicidal students, paving the way for a larger trial of clinical effectiveness.
Parents occupy a central place in the emergency care of suicidal adolescents and young adults. However, from 15 to 25yo, three different administrative situations exist in France: - <16yo: admission to a child ED by a team trained to receive the youngest patients. - 16-18yo: admission to an adult ED by team devoted to adult care, no exit without parents' authorization. - >18yo: admission to an adult ED by team. Laying on qualitative observational protocol and a Delphi approach, this study will explore the perspective of adolescents and young adults following a suicidal attempt, the perspective of their parents, and the perspective of their healthcare professionals to build guidelines for parental involvement in care of suicidal youths.
This randomized trial evaluated whether sending population-based invitation messages through the electronic health record to visit Lock to Live (L2L), a web-based decision aid that incorporates patients' values into recommendations for safe storage of firearms and medications, impacted readiness to change firearm and medication storage behaviors.
The proposed study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a mindfulness-based intervention to reduce functional impairment from chronic pain and risk of suicide.
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.
The current study is a clinical trial, meaning a research study in which human subjects are prospectively assigned to one or more interventions to evaluate the effects of those interventions on health-related behavioral outcomes. Specifically, male and female adults with current suicidal intent will be randomly assigned to receive either a 1-hour session of crisis response planning (CRP) or a 1-hour session of standard crisis risk management (Treatment as Usual). The effects of both conditions on changes in emotion regulation, behavioral inhibition, stress reactivity, and suicide risk will be evaluated post-intervention and at six-month follow-up. Additional assessments of changes in mood and suicidality will be collected daily during the first 10-days following intervention, and then monthly for a duration of six months. A cohort of healthy controls is included in the study but are not randomized to either treatment condition. The investigators hypothesize the following: 1) A single session of CRP will acutely change suicide risk and 2) Individuals who receive CRP will show sustained improvements in measures of suicidality when compared to individuals who received the Treatment as Usual intervention.
Veterans Coordinated Community Care (3C) Study will recruit 850 Veterans at risk for suicide post inpatient hospitalization. Each participant will be randomly assigned to treatment as usual (TAU) or TAU plus the Coping Long Term with Active Suicide Program (CLASP), with follow-up for 6 months after discharge. Outcomes include suicide-related behaviors (including deaths due to suicide, opioid overdose, or other substance-related accidents; and nonfatal suicide attempts) and suicidal ideation and functioning.
The aim of this pilot study is to reduce suicide among sexual and gender diverse youth ages 18-24 years old. This pilot study will compare two brief suicide prevention interventions that have been adapted for use with this population to use in primary care via telehealth and will recruit 40 youth from 4-6 primary care clinics in the Dallas and Austin, Texas metropolitan areas. Each clinic will be randomly assigned to deliver one of the two study interventions.
