Study Summary

Adolescent suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death in this age group. There are no validated treatments to decrease the risk of adolescent suicidal behavior, and there are especially no interventions to target the highest risk period for adolescent suicide and suicidal behavior, namely during the time of transition from inpatient to outpatient care. This purpose of this project was to develop a novel, brief intervention that can be delivered on an inpatient unit prior to the transition to outpatient care, and augment known factors to protect adolescents from suicidal behavior, and extend the impact of treatment by liaison with the outpatient therapist and the development of a personalized safety plan phone application. This treatment, ASAP, focuses on augmenting adherence to the components of ASAP and outpatient aftercare, development of a personalized Safety Plan, and Affect Protection, through helping the teen and family promote a positive mood, tolerate distress, engage in healthy emotion regulation and access social support.

Primary Outcome

Suicidal attempts were the major outcome and secondarily, suicidal ideation. Information about past and current suicidal behavior was obtained using the Columbia Suicide History Form, with ideation and behavior classified using the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (CSSRS). Self-reported ideation was assessed using the Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire - Junior (SIQ-Jr). The two main outcomes, assessing recurrent suicidal behavior and change in suicidal ideation, was assessed at weeks 4, 12,
