ASPIS/CRP Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Crisis Response PlanningExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
CRP is a brief psychotherapeutic intervention that can be provided to patients at risk of suicidal behavior. When using the intervention, a provider works with the patient (1) to conduct a narrative assessment of the events preceding suicidal thoughts or behavior, and (2) to develop a personalized plan for identifying and managing distress that could escalate to a suicide attempt. The CRP, which is typically handwritten by the patient on an index card, includes personal warning signs of distress, emotion regulation strategies, reasons for living, and contact information for friends/family as well as professional (psychological/medical) and emergency resources.
Group II: Treatment as UsualActive Control1 Intervention
Existing clinical practices in the emergency department include the following elements recommended by the VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guidelines: (1) all patients are screened for suicidal ideation at every visit; (2) for those with positive screens, a suicide risk assessment interview is conducted by a mental health professional; (3) a safety planning form with means restriction (such as the Stanley-Brown; Stanley & Brown, 2012) is completed; and (4) patients are referred for follow-up mental health treatment as needed. Other elements of TAU could include behavioral and psychotropic interventions, referrals to specialty mental healthcare, and admission for psychiatric inpatient care.
