Active clinical trials for "Suicide"

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 goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving genetically changed immune cells, called T-cells, after chemotherapy will improve the response to a stem cell transplant. The safety of this treatment will also be studied. The process of changing the DNA (the genetic material in cells) of these T-cells is called "gene transfer." Researchers want to learn if these genetically-changed T-cells are effective in attacking cancer cells in patients with leukemia, MDS, lymphoma, Hodgkin disease, or MM, after they have received an allogeneic stem cell transplant. The chemotherapy you will be given on study is fludarabine, melphalan, and alemtuzumab. These drugs are designed to stop the growth of cancer cells, which may cause the cancer cells to die. This chemotherapy is also designed to block your body's ability to reject the donor's stem cells. Researchers also want to learn if giving AP1903 will help the symptoms of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) that may occur after the T-cell infusion. GvHD occurs when donor cells attack the cells of the person receiving the stem cell transplant.

The Electronic Youth-Nominated Support Team (eYST), is experimental. The purpose of this study is to get feedback from users about eYST. Another purpose of this study is to learn how well eYST helps youth.

The aim of this pilot study is to reduce suicide among sexual and gender diverse youth ages 18-24 years old. This pilot study will compare two brief suicide prevention interventions that have been adapted for use with this population to use in primary care via telehealth and will recruit 40 youth from 4-6 primary care clinics in the Dallas and Austin, Texas metropolitan areas. Each clinic will be randomly assigned to deliver one of the two study interventions.

This study is looking at the helpfulness of a brief treatment targeting suicidality (Teachable Moment Brief Intervention [TMBI]) and experimental pain responses in an inpatient population as well as collecting comparison data from the community.

This study compares the efficacy of music therapy associated with standard care versus the standard care alone on the psychological pain in suicidal patients.

Financial hardship is an important risk factor for suicide. However, to date there are no evidence-based interventions to help individuals improve their financial situation and thus reduce suicide risk. The aim of our study is to develop a 24-week, peer-led intervention to reduce financial hardship for individuals experiencing financial difficulties and suicide risk, and to test whether it is feasible, acceptable to clients and achieves its desired effect. The intervention will support participants to address their financial difficulties (e.g., debt, inability to meet basic needs) by coaching them on financial management techniques, facilitating a financial wellness plan, and connecting them with community- based financial supports (e.g., free financial counseling). The intervention will be facilitated by trained peer specialists. The intervention consists of two phases: (1) a 9-week intensive phase will consist of weekly group sessions and one-on-one coaching sessions to navigate financial resources; (2) a 15-week follow-up phase will contain biweekly check-ins to achieve financial goals. This study will obtain input from stakeholders to develop the intervention (Step 1), pilot it with a small sample of participants (n=10; Step 2), use this information to revise the intervention (Step 3), test it in a larger sample of individuals with financial hardship and suicide risk (n=50; Step 4), and prepare a final version of the intervention manual (Step 5). The main outcome of this study will be a manualized intervention to lessen financial hardship as a risk factor for suicide.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of intranasal esketamine 84 milligram (mg) compared with intranasal placebo in addition to comprehensive standard of care in reducing the symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), including suicidal ideation, in participants who are assessed to be at imminent risk for suicide, as measured by the change from baseline on the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score at 24 hours post first dose.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) provides rapid reduction and sustained attenuation of suicidal crisis. TMS is a treatment for suicidal crisis that is quicker, less invasive, better tolerated, and with fewer side effects than current treatments such as Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) and medication therapies. There will be 6 months of follow-up, in order to establish the ongoing and lasting therapeutic effect of TMS.

For suicidal individuals, minimizing future risk and fostering recovery are critical public health concerns, especially among Veterans, as very few effective interventions exist. This proposal tests a novel group psychotherapy treatment that combines emotion regulation skill based, and psychoeducational approaches, with suicide safety planning development and implementation. "Project Life Force" (PLF), a novel suicide safety planning group intervention has been designed to fill this critical gap and provide a mechanism to develop and enhance suicide safety planning over time. PLF, a 12-session, group psychotherapy intervention, combines Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skill based and psychoeducational approaches, to enhance suicide safety planning development and implementation. Veterans revise their plans over several weeks while learning distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and friendship building/interpersonal skills to incorporate into their safety plans and also receive lessons on gun safety and minimizing access to lethal means. Sessions are augmented with 1) training in the use of a suicide safety planning mobile App to promote accessibility and maximize implementation, and 2) didactic information to bolster recovery, including fostering improved connection with the treatment team, and Veteran's family.
