Active clinical trials for "Suicidal Ideation"

The primary aim of this grant is to conduct pilot testing on a novel personalized mobile intervention for suicide - Mobile Application to Prevent Suicide (MAPS) - and to establish feasibility, acceptability, safety, and primary outcomes (i.e., suicidal ideation and behavior; re-hospitalization).

The primary aim of the present study is leverage existing infrastructure to develop novel technological features for a novel personalized smartphone intervention system, called the Mobile Application to Prevent Suicide (MAPS), and to establish feasibility, acceptability, safety, and estimate key parameters for secondary outcomes (i.e., suicidal ideation and behavior; re-hospitalization).

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

Background: Suicide is the second leading cause of death for young people ages 10-24 years. There is no gold standard for evaluating suicidal thoughts and behaviors in young people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or other neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). Also, youth with ASD/NDD are often excluded from many research studies. Because of this, researchers need more data. They want to make sure they are asking the best questions for young people in clinics such as the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) clinic. They want to make sure they have the best data to determine if a person is at risk for hurting or killing himself or herself. Objective: To develop and assess the efficacy of a suicide screening tool for people with ASD/NDD. Eligibility: Youth ages 8 to 17 who are engaged in assessment or treatment at the NIMH for ASD or other NDD Design: Participants will fill out 4 questionnaires during a 1-hour meeting with study staff. They will answer questions about how they have been feeling. They will be asked if they think about or plan to hurt or kill themselves. They will also be asked if they have ever thought about it or planned it in the past. Other questions will assess their understanding of death. Participants can take a break if needed. Parents of the participants will be asked similar questions. Parents will be informed if their child has current thoughts of suicide. About 1 week after the initial assessment, parents will be contacted to fill out a follow-up questionnaire. It will take about 10 minutes to complete.

This 6-month, naturalistic cohort study examines male and female inpatients aged 18 to 75 years i) with any form of unipolar depressive episode (cohort 1); ii) clinical diagnosis of a moderate or severe unipolar depressive episode and suicidal tendencies who agree to participate in a prospective study (cohort 2); and moderate or severe unipolar depressive episodes validated by research interviews and and suicidal tendencies that persist for at least 48 hours after admission who are followed up for 6 months (cohort 3).

This study aims to examine whether multiple spaced sessions of intermittent theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTBS) induce anti-depressant responses and reduce opiate cravings in adults with opiate use disorder (OUD). Additionally, we hope to identify whether the effectiveness of iTBS is related to changes in functional connectivity between particular brain areas.

Randomized controlled trial to determine the best brief suicide prevention intervention for adults and adolescents who screen positive for suicidal ideation or behavior in emergency departments or primary care clinics. Aim 1: Compare the effectiveness of two brief suicide prevention interventions (safety planning intervention plus structured phone-based follow-up from a suicide prevention hotline (SPI+), versus safety planning intervention plus caring contacts (CC)) to (a) reduce suicidal ideation and behavior, (b) reduce loneliness, (c) reduce return to care for suicidality, and (d) increase uptake of outpatient mental healthcare services over 12 months among adult and adolescent patients screening positive for suicide in emergency departments (EDs) and primary care clinics. Aim 2: Assess the acceptability of connection and support planning and the safety planning intervention, with or without follow-up among providers and clinical staff in EDs and primary care clinics. Aim 3: Assess the acceptability of SPI+ and SP+CC among adult and adolescent patients.

This paper describes the rationale and design of a Phase 3 RCT comparing Transcendental Meditation to Present Centered Therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), suicidal ideation, alcohol use, and depressive symptoms in Veterans. In this multisite trial, 450 Veterans meeting Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-5 (DSM-5) criteria for PTSD will be recruited from nine VA and academic medical center sites across the U.S. Study outcomes include changes in PTSD diagnosis and symptom severity (primary), suicidal ideation, alcohol use, and depressive symptoms. Participation includes baseline testing and post-treatment assessments at 12, 24, and 36-weeks. During each assessment visit, Veterans will complete diagnostic interviews, including the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 and the Alcohol Timeline Followback, as well as validated self-report measures. Cost-effectiveness of the treatments will be measured using intervention and healthcare costs, the proportion with PTSD diagnosis removed, and Quality-Adjusted Life Years. Finally, single-site substudies will examine pre-to-post-treatment changes in PTSD biomarkers and on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

The primary aim of the present study is leverage existing infrastructure to develop novel technological features for a novel personalized smartphone intervention system, called the Mobile Application to Prevent Suicide (MAPS), and to establish feasibility, acceptability, safety, and estimate key parameters for primary outcomes (i.e., suicidal ideation and behavior; re-hospitalization), and target mechanisms.
