Prevenzione del comportamento suicidario con diversi giovani ad alto rischio in contesti di terapia intensiva (Project HOPE)

2 novembre 2026 aggiornato da: Johns Hopkins University

This multisite randomized controlled trial will compare two brief interventions for youth and young adults ages 12-24 following an acute care visit for suicide risk: the Stanley-Brown Safety Planning Intervention with follow-up contacts (SPI+) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Adolescents-Ultra Short Crisis Intervention (IPT-A SCI). The study will evaluate which approach is more effective in reducing suicidal ideation and suicide events. Findings will help patients, families, and clinicians make informed decisions about care following a suicide-related emergency department visit.

Descrizione dettagliata

Youth and young adults who present to emergency departments (EDs) with suicide-related concerns need timely access to effective interventions and follow-up care. However, evidence is limited regarding which brief interventions are most effective for this population. This study focuses on youth and young adults ages 12-24 receiving care in five racially and ethnically diverse geographic areas: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Baltimore, Maryland; Chapel Hill, North Carolina; St. Petersburg, Florida; and New York City, New York.

This multisite randomized controlled trial compares two brief interventions: the Safety Planning Intervention with follow-up contacts (SPI+) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Adolescents-Ultra Short Crisis Intervention (IPT-A SCI). SPI+ is a suicide-specific intervention that helps participants recognize warning signs and identify coping strategies and sources of support to prevent suicidal crises from escalating. It combines safety planning in the acute care setting with follow-up contacts. IPT-A SCI is a brief psychotherapy intervention delivered primarily in outpatient settings that addresses interpersonal problems associated with suicidal crises and helps participants develop communication and interpersonal problem-solving skills.

The study will examine the comparative effectiveness of these interventions in reducing suicidal ideation and suicide events among youth and young adults following an acute care visit for suicide risk. Although both approaches are intended to support participants during periods of elevated risk, the approaches differ in focus, intensity, and delivery setting. Understanding comparative effectiveness can help guide treatment decisions, implementation, and resource allocation across acute care and outpatient settings.

The research team works with a racially and ethnically diverse group of partners and advisors, including advocates, researchers, ED physicians, nurses, social workers, and individuals with lived experience of suicide attempts or suicide loss. Partners and advisors have contributed to recruitment strategies, intervention approaches, and follow-up procedures and will continue to inform study conduct, interpretation of findings, and dissemination.

Findings from this study will help inform care for youth and young adults presenting to EDs with suicide-related concerns and support the implementation of effective, brief interventions across diverse clinical settings.

Armi e interventi

Gruppo di partecipanti / Arm
Intervento / Trattamento
Comparatore attivo: Safety Planning Intervention (SPI)

The SPI is a brief, evidence- based intervention that provides people with an individualized set of steps that can be used progressively to both reduce risk and maintain safety when suicide ideation (SI) emerges. Safety plans are developed collaboratively between providers, at risk youth, and family members when possible. Core SPI components include recognizing warning signs of an imminent suicidal crisis (e.g., changes in mood, thoughts or behaviors); using internal coping skills to reduce distress; using people or places in the individual's support network as a means of distraction from SI; reaching out to family or friends to help manage the crisis; contacting health professionals or emergency services; and reducing access to lethal means. SPI+ includes a brief follow-up component post- discharge that includes contacting the patient for a mood and risk check-in; reviewing and revising the safety plan; and facilitating connection with community mental health services.

Comparatore attivo: Ultra-Brief Crisis Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Suicidal Children and Adolescents (IPT-A-SCI)

Ultra-Brief Crisis Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Suicidal Children and Adolescents (IPT-A-SCI) is a scalable, flexible, and extensively examined mental health treatment developed to reduce depressive symptoms and improve interpersonal functioning, and has been adapted for use in adolescents (IPT-A-SCI) and shown to be effective in treating depression and reducing associated suicide risk. Interpersonal problems are often at the core of suicidal thinking and behavior in youths including minority youths.
