Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate a suicide risk model in patients receiving behavioral health care treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the implementation of the suicide risk model reduce suicide attempts? Researchers will compare the outcomes of patients identified by the model to those in a usual care group.
This project aims to adapt, implement, and evaluate a Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills training group intervention for aging adult family caregivers of person with Alzheimer's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) to reduce suicidality. By adapting this modality, the investigators will provide a scalable intervention tailored for this high-risk population, maximizing the public health impact and improving suicide prevention.
Recent studies have revealed an association between history of suicide attempt and inflammatory markers in both the cerebrospinal fluid and the plasma. Post mortem studies have shown an increase in microglial activation in the brain tissue of suicide victims. However the relationship between peripheral and central inflammation in suicide is probably mediated by complex biological processes that are yet elucidated. An increase of blood S100B levels (biomarker of neurovascular damage; PMID 14530574) has been reported in adolescents with suicidal ideation vs. controls and independently of psychiatric disorder. The investigators hypothesize that peripheral inflammation may alter the blood brain barrier, which normally acts as a filter to ensure proper neuronal functioning, in suicidal patients. They propose to investigate peripheral inflammation, neurovascular permeability and miRNAs in suicidal behavior pathophysiology as biomarkers of suicidal behavior in depression
The goal of this mixed-methods study is to describe the association between the level of parent/adolescent discordance in the assessment of the adolescent's level of suicidal intentionality after a suicid attempt and the evolution of the suicidal crisis by assessing the evolution of the adolescent's suicidal intentionality between T0 and 3 months. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To show the association between the level of parent/adolescent discordance in the assessment of the adolescent's level of suicidal intent after a suicid attempt and various markers of the evolution of the suicidal crisis at 3 months. - Explore the experience of adolescents and their parents regarding the elements they consider relevant in assessing the adolescent's suicidal intent. Participants will be asked to complete various self- and hetero-questionnaires at T0 and T3
This is a mixed-methods study. The quantitative component will comprise of a multicentre rater-blind, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of AISHA in addition to treatment as usual (TAU) compared to TAU alone in Pakistan. In-depth interviews and focus groups with other stakeholders will take place to consider the wider implementation of AISHA in mental health services in Pakistan.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people aged 12-17 years in the United States, yet many youth at risk for suicide are not identified or go untreated. Stepped care approaches have been shown to be effective at reducing suicide risk in clinical settings, including primary care. The goal of this hybrid I stepped wedge effectiveness-implementation study is to test the effectiveness of a population-based quality improvement (QI) intervention, entitled STARRS-PC (Stepped Approach to Reducing Risk of Suicide in Primary Care) compared to treatment as usual (TAU), in reducing the risk of suicidal behavior among youth in the pediatric primary care setting. STARRS-PC implements a clinical pathway for youth at elevated risk for suicide in pediatric primary care clinics. Clinical pathways are tools used by health professionals to guide evidence-informed practice. The STARRS-PC pathway consists of three evidence-based suicide clinical care processes: risk detection, assessment and triage, and, if needed, follow-up transitional care. STARRS-PC is guided by the Practical, Robust Implementation, and Sustainability Model (PRISM), which allows for the study of factors that influence effective implementation of the suicide prevention clinical pathway and is focused on scalability. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Will STARRS-PC be more effective than TAU at reducing the rate of suicide attempt at 12 months post-baseline (primary outcome)? - Will STARRS-PC be more effective than TAU at reducing suicidal ideation and non-suicidal self-injury, and improving family satisfaction at 12 months post-baseline (secondary outcomes)? - What are the barriers and facilitators of effective implementation and sustainability of STARRS-PC?
Scientific advances are constantly leading to better treatments. However, it is quite challenging for healthcare systems, including VA, to ask very busy providers to change the way they practice. The MIDAS QUERI program helps providers improve the way they treat VA patients. This project will focus on increasing referrals to the Suicide Prevention 2.0 Clinical Telehealth (SP 2.0) initiative through the delivery of Academic Detailing and LEAP (a team-based quality improvement program). SP 2.0 provides accessible, evidence-based suicide prevention treatment to all Veterans with a history of suicidal self-directed violence or preparatory behaviors in the past 12 months.
The aim of this study is to determine the attitudes and stigmatization levels of nurses working in the intensive care and emergency departments towards suicidal behavior.
The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that 15 transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) sessions of 30 minutes at 2 mA intensity are effective to reduce suicidal ideation
The objective of this study is to test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of Flourish (formerly referred to as imHere4U), a digital suicide prevention intervention for cyberbullied adolescents. The specific aims are to: Aim #1: Conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing Flourish+Questionnaires vs. Questionnaires Alone among cyberbullied youth at-risk for suicide ages 12-17 (N=80, >35% underserved youth). H2a. Primary outcome: Feasibility will be evidenced by recruitment/retention rates > 80% and imHere4U engagement > 70%. H2b. Secondary outcomes: Youth assigned to Flourish+Questionnaires will report improved problem-solving capacity, distress tolerance, and motivation and reduced distress and suicidal ideation than youth assigned to Questionnaires Alone over the 6-month follow-up period. Exploratory Aim: Examine the feasibility of delivering feedback on online interactions from machine learning algorithms. All youth assigned to Flourish may optionally provide their social media data to receive feedback from machine learning algorithms. H3a. Feedback from algorithms will have high acceptability (identified via qualitative themes and >70% acceptance rates) and usability, defined by mean scores on Post-Study System and Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ) > 6.
