Study Summary

In this study, the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the efficacy of the WET-S + treatment as usual (TAU) compared with TAU among high-risk, suicidal service members with PTSD or posttraumatic stress (PTS) admitted to the Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center (CRDAMC) acute inpatient psychiatry unit at Fort Hood, Texas. Suicide risk and PTS symptom severity are the primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes include subsequent hospitalizations for suicidal thoughts and behaviors and suicide attempts. Investigators will conduct a needs assessment with stakeholders during the RCT to develop a tool kit for WET implementation in other DoD inpatient psychiatry units.

Primary Outcome

The CAPS-5 is a structured diagnostic interview and gold standard for assessing PTSD. It provides a dichotomous PTSD diagnosis and overall symptom severity score. Scores range from 0 to 80, with greater scores signifying more severe PTSD symptoms.

Interventions

  • BEHAVIORAL Treatment as Usual
  • BEHAVIORAL Written Exposure Therapy -for Suicide
