Filter by:This initial study is a pilot feasibility study with a primary objective of assessing the feasibility of a larger study by evaluating the procedures and methodology, as well as collecting pilot data. The eventual research goal is to demonstrate whether a suicide prevention video in addition to standard care for suicidality is an effective strategy to reduce suicidal behaviours in individuals with a history of such. The suicide prevention video is developed as an educational tool to inform participants of the various consequences of suicide as well as giving a message of hope. It is hoped that such an approach will help to reduce future suicidal behaviours in those who have a history of such. If so, then this could be made as a part of the standard of care in treating patients with suicidality.
The research will use the Social Ecologic Model of behavior and WHO mhGAP framework to design a comprehensive intervention across three levels (individual, interpersonal, and social) of influence. The study will then pilot the intervention in 15 secondary schools through a Stepped-Wedge Cluster-Randomized trial. After screening for eligibility and selecting participating schools and individuals, investigators will randomize at the cluster level and switch the groups from control to intervention arms at three months' intervals till the research has moved all the clusters. The study will collect data at baseline, the switch points, and the end of the study. The goal is to evaluate the feasibility, effectiveness of a comprehensive suicide behavior prevention intervention among in-school adolescents in Nigeria. Another aim is to identify barriers and facilitators of implementation and the best practices for scaling up the intervention. It is hypothesized that because our intervention is based on the best contextual evidence and built on a sound theoretical model, it will successfully mitigate suicide ideation. Also, the nature and efficiency of the stepped wedge cluster randomized design will enhance the feasibility in the local context, characterized by political, logistic, and ethical constraints.
This study evaluates the effects of an accelerated schedule of theta-burst stimulation, termed accelerated intermittent theta-burst stimulation (aiTBS), on the neural networks underlying explicit and implicit suicidal cognition in inpatients with major depressive disorder.
Suicide is a leading cause of death worldwide, and identifying risk factors has been considered as the key initiative of suicide prevention. Considering that, the study aimed to explore the factors leading towards suicide in Pakistan through Case-Control Psychological Autopsy of Suicide. Also, the study aimed to Translate, Adapt and Validate American Association of Suicidology (AAS) Semi-Structured Interview for Psychological Autopsy (Generic Version, 2018).
1. To investigate the effectiveness of Young Adults Culturally Adapted Manual Assisted Psychological Therapy (YA-CMAP) in University students with Suicide Risk 2. To compare the effectiveness of Young Adults Culturally Adapted Manual Assisted Psychological Therapy (YA-CMAP) against MinPlan tool in University students with Suicide Risk
The overarching goal of this study is to develop a suicide prevention program for sexual-and-gender-minority youth and emerging adults. After development of the intervention program, an open phase trial will be conducted to test its feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary impact on three intervention targets.
To inform the effective management of adolescent suicide risk by evaluating promising treatments and developing the evidence-base for interventions that are well suited for widespread adoption, sustained quality, and impact.
In France, over the last years the use weak opioid analgesics decreased́, whereas that of strong opioid analgesics (OFMA). Hospitalizations for opioid overdose increased́ by 128% from 2000 to 2015, and deaths related to prescribed opioid overdose increased significantly, by 161%, from 2000 to 2014.In addition, recent studies suggest a link between opioid system dysfunction and suicidal behavior. In parallel, studies are emerging showing the potential interest of using Tramadol as an antidepressant. Indeed, this opiate analgesic also acts on the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems, and would have an antidepressant effect.Thus, the investigators can legitimately wonder whether the use of Tramadol as an antidepressant might not pose a problem in patients at risk of suicide. This study aims to describe a clinical case of a patient hospitalized in the Department of Psychiatric Emergency and Post-Emergency (Montpellier University Hospital) who developed a severe addiction to Tramadol (consumption up to 5 times the maximum recommended dose per day) and evaluate whether this may have increased her suicidal risk, in order to warn prescribers about the suicidal risk of Tramadol.
The aim is to investigate how health professionals view/respond towards suicidal patients, what was their attitude, experiences and difficulties/challenges they faced while dealing with suicidal patients (whether successful or unsuccessful), and what measures/methods are optimal or could be used to prevent suicide from the perspective of mental and non mental health professionals through concurrent mixed methods study approach.
The researchers seek to develop a text message intervention for caregivers of adolescents at elevated suicide risk following discharge from emergency department (ED) care.
