Study Summary

Physicians and nurses working in non-mental health settings require tools to guide them in recognizing patients at risk. While screening children and adolescents is emerging as a priority of the Joint Commission, there are currently no suicide screening instruments designed specifically for assessing suicide risk in a pediatric inpatient medical population. Recently, our study team developed the Ask Suicide-Screening Questions (ASQ), a 4-item suicide risk screening instrument with excellent sensitivity, specificity, and negative predictive value for use in pediatric emergency departments (Protocol #08-M-N070). However, use of the ASQ in an inpatient medical setting has not been tested. The aim of this study is to determine the utility of the ASQ among pediatric medical inpatients in children s hospitals. While most inpatients will not be at imminent risk for suicide, we hypothesize that the ASQ will capture a number of patients who screen positive and are not only at risk for suicidal behavior in the future, but are also experiencing significant emotional distress and therefore warrant further psychiatric evaluation and follow-up treatment. This will be a multisite study, comprised of medically ill inpatients at three non-NIH affiliated sites (Children s National Medical Center, Boston Children s Hospital, and Nationwide Children s Hospital), with a total sample size of 600 (200 per site). We will administer several short measures of suicide risk the ASQ, the Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire, a brief depression screen, the Patients Health Questionnaire Adolescent version (PHQ-A) to all eligible inpatients aged 10-21 years. The ultimate goal of this project is to provide non-mental health clinicians with a brief, accurate assessment tool for detecting risk of suicide in pediatric medical inpatients and in turn, connecting those in need with mental health services. After validating the ASQ with pediatric medical inpatients, we will then examine the practical implicatio
