About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Suicide

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Admission to CSC with suicidal crisis, as defined by active suicide ideation ascertained by the Columbia Suicide-Severity Rating scale, which the sites already routinely administer. Ability and willingness to provide information for and permission to contact two persons in case of emergency or inability to reach the participant for follow-up Exclusion Criteria: Under age 18. Inability to communicate with the researcher in English. Acute psychiatric instability (e.g., psychotic symptoms). Most patients with psychosis are transferred to Emergency Departments instead of CSCs, so we do not expect many exclusions based on this criterion.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Crisis stabilization centers (CSCs) provide a less costly and more comfortable alternative to Emergency Department care for individuals with suicidal crises. With demand for crisis alternatives growing, effective interventions that fit the unique workflows and workforce of CSCs are needed to realize their life-saving potential. To address this need, the investigators will adapt, and pilot test the effectiveness of an interpersonally enhanced recovery and follow-up intervention delivered during and after admissions acute suicidal crises.

Intervention Name(s)
THRIVE (Toward Hope, Recovery, Interpersonal Growth, Values, and Engagement)
Intervention Description
THRIVE is an interpersonally focused recovery and care transition program. THRIVE (previously called "RELATE" in our SAMHSA grants) involves engaging a person during and following acute suicidal crisis in a sequence of interpersonally focused therapeutic tasks. The purpose of THRIVE is to help CSC guests re-build connections and "contribute" to the world in ways they find personally meaningful, while also transitioning safely to outpatient, community-based care. THRIVE involves a Belonging and Giving Reflections Group while at the CSC, followed by a 4-week, phone-based, recovery and care transition series of coaching calls.

12. IPD Sharing Statement

Plan to Share IPD
Yes
IPD Sharing Plan Description
The final dataset that we will share will include self-reported demographic and behavioral data from assessments with subjects as described in the Research Strategy section of this application. All data will be de-identified prior to receipt by the repository, but the information needed to generate a global unique identifier for the NIMH Data Archive (NDA) will be collected for each subject. Sufficient data from this project will be preserved to enable sharing via NDA. Data will be of sufficient quality to validate and replicate research findings described in the Aims.
IPD Sharing Time Frame
The research community will have access to data when the award ends. As required by NDA, studies will also be created that contain the data used for every publication. Those studies will be shared when the pre-print is available. NDA studies have digital object identifiers (DOI) to aid in findability. We will include that DOI in relevant publications. NDA will make decisions about how long to preserve the data, but that data archive has not deleted any deposited data up to now.
IPD Sharing Access Criteria
To request access of the data, researchers will use the standard processes at NDA, and the NDA Data Access Committee will decide which requests to grant. The standard NDA data access process allows access for one year and is renewable. The NDA GUID tool allows researchers to aggregate data from the same research participant without different laboratories having to share personally identifiable information about that research participant. The NDA data dictionaries do not permit personally identifiable information to be shared. NDA maintains a Certificate of Confidentiality.
