INternet-based Programmes FOR the Prevention of Suicidal Ideation in MEDical Students

Suicidal Ideation

Two programmes have been built to prevent suicidal ideation; one focuses on stress management based on cognitive and behavioural principles and the other on health promotion.

Addressing Nocturnal Sleep/Wake Effects on Risk of Suicide in Older Adults

Sleep Initiation and Maintenance DisordersSuicidal Ideation

Suicide is a leading cause of death in the US, and insomnia is a risk factor for suicidal thoughts and behaviors. In older adults, suicide is associated with impaired cognitive functioning, and insomnia, which is more prevalent in older adults, is also linked to disrupted cognition. However, there is limited evidence on whether treatment of insomnia can improve suicidal ideation (with or without improving cognition), and no evidence specifically in older adults. Additionally, no studies have investigated digital cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (dCBT-I) in this populations. Consequently, this study will help inform future study designs and provide preliminary data on whether dCBT-I is effective for suicidal thinking in older adults.

Mitigating Suicide Risk With Single Session 'Brief Skills for Safer Living'

Suicidal IdeationSuicide2 more

Mental health concerns have been on the rise since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has worsened risk factors for suicide, including job loss, anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Timely and easy access to mental health services is a dire need, and this study will test the efficacy and feasibility of a brief clinical intervention, Brief Skills for Safer Living (Brief-SfSL), at reducing suicide risk. The goal of this study is to investigate whether Brief-SfSL, delivered online, is a suitable, acceptable and effective method for reducing suicide risk and providing timely mental health services. The results from this study will provide vital insight into effective interventions for suicide risk that are accessible and can be widely distributed.

App-based Intervention to Promote Mental Health Help-seeking Among University Students

Suicidal IdeationSuicidal Behavior

It is estimated that approximately one in three university students has a mental health problem and between 5-10% have active suicidal ideation. Most college students do not receive professional treatment, which has been associated with structural and attitudinal barriers to help-seeking. Given that young people regularly use the internet to seek information about health problems, internet and digital technology-based interventions could represent an effective approach to overcome attitudinal barriers. The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a mobile app-based intervention for the promotion of help-seeking in mental health services for university students at risk of suicide. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it feasible to implement a mobile app-based intervention for the promotion of mental health help-seeking in a university context? Is it possible to increase the likelihood of help-seeking in mental health services among university students at risk of suicide through an app-based intervention? Participants will receive a brief contact intervention (via phone call or chat) where they will be assessed by a clinical psychologist, receive information on available support services and instructions to download and use a mobile app called "Take Care of Your Mood". In addition, the participants can request a counseling session with a clinical psychologist. Participants will also receive reminder messages (by email and chat) motivating them to use the app or request a counseling session with a psychologist if they deem it necessary. Researchers will compare this intervention with a brief contact intervention (control group) where participants will be assessed by a clinical psychologist, will receive instructions to download and use the app, but will not receive reminder messages or be able to access a counseling session with a psychologist.

Targeting Adolescent Insomnia to Lessen Overall Risk of Suicidal Behavior

InsomniaSuicidal Ideation2 more

This study will test the effectiveness of a sleep-related primary suicide prevention program entitled TAILOR (Targeting Adolescent Insomnia to Lessen Overall Risk of Suicidal Behavior), which includes specific behavior-change strategies for adolescents at risk of suicidal behavior who suffer from difficulties falling asleep, staying asleep, and/or insufficient sleep.

The Impact of AMPA Receptor Blockade on Ketamine's Anti-Suicidal Effects

Depressive DisorderMajor Depressive Disorder3 more

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that the anti-depressant and anti-suicidal effects of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist Ketamine is critically dependent on stimulation of Alpha-Amino-3-Hydroxy-5-Methyl-4-Isoxazole Propionic Acid receptors (AMPAR).

SAFETY-A for Promoting Equity in Suicide Prevention Outcomes in Schools

Suicidal Ideation

This study will adapt Safe Alternatives For Teens and Youth - Acute (SAFETY-A) for implementation in low-resourced school districts to reduce racial/ethnic disparities in mental health service use (MHS) following identification of suicide risk in youth. SAFETY-A will be adapted to fit the organizational context of school districts and to reduce mistrust of MHS, internalized stigma, and concealment of youth emotional distress that arise in school suicide risk assessments with Asian American and Latinx students. Following a prototyping case series, a feasibility trial will assign four districts to the timing of SAFETY-A implementation to generate preliminary data on feasibility and impacts on proposed mechanisms and youth MHS utilization and clinical outcomes across racial/ethnic groups.

Cyclical Neuroactive Steroid Changes, Arousal, and Proximal Suicide Risk: An Experimental Approach...

Suicidal Ideation

Female suicide attempts occur more often in the weeks before and after menses onset, and have been linked to ovarian hormone withdrawal. The proposed project will use a two-week intervention to stabilize hormones in females with recent suicidal thoughts; this paradigm is a safe way to learn how cyclical changes in hormones and their metabolites influence short-term risk of suicide. The data acquired will contribute to our understanding of the biology of acute suicide risk and advance efforts to develop safe and effective treatments that eliminate predictable monthly worsening of suicide risk in reproductive-age females.

Ketamine & Crisis Response Plan for Suicidal Ideation in the ED

Suicide

The goal of this randomized pilot trial is to assess the feasibility of administering a combination of 100mg intramuscular (IM) ketamine and Crisis Response Plan (a short psychosocial intervention) for patients with acute suicidality in the context of the Emergency Department setting. This study will assess a combination of a pharmacologic intervention and a psychosocial one. The pharmacologic intervention is a one-time dose of 100mg ketamine delivered intramuscularly (IM) while the patient is in the ED. The psychosocial intervention under study is a brief, patient-centered therapy which takes, on average, 30 minutes to administer. Both interventions will be administered only once. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Determine if 100mg of IM ketamine and Crisis Response Plan in combination results in greater short-term reductions in suicidal ideation in adult patients who report acutely elevated suicide risk during an ED visit. Examine potential weight-based dose response differences in the reductions in suicidal ideation to determine if future treatment protocols with IM ketamine may benefit from weight-based dosing.

Telehealth to Reduce Suicidality and Improve HIV Care Engagement in Tanzania

SuicideSuicidal Ideation8 more

The overall objectives of the proposed research are to develop a brief telehealth counseling intervention to provide support for people living with HIV and experiencing suicidal ideation, and to support HIV care engagement. The investigators hypothesize that a brief telehealth counseling intervention will be safe (participants in the clinical trial will not have increased risk of suicidal behavior), acceptable (high patient retention and satisfaction, high fidelity), and will demonstrate preliminary efficacy (reduced suicidal ideation, improved care engagement, improved mental well-being).
