Doupnik SK, Rudd B, Schmutte T, et al. - In this systematic review and meta-analysis, researchers sought to explore the correlation of brief acute care suicide prevention interventions with patients’ subsequent suicide attempts, linkage to follow-up care, and depression symptoms at follow-up. In total, 14 studies, representing outcomes for 4,270 patients, were involved. Findings suggested an correlation of brief acute care suicide prevention interventions with decreased subsequent suicide attempts and increased chances of linkage to follow-up care. Care coordination, safety planning, brief follow-up contacts, and brief therapeutic interventions were the most common components of interventions. Suicide prevention interventions delivered in a single in-person encounter may be effective in minimizing subsequent suicide attempts and ensuring that patients are engaged in mental healthcare follow-up.
