Title: AID-trial:A Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing the Effect on Repeated Self-harm of Assertive Intervention and Standard Treatment After Deliberate Self-harm
Brief Summary: Background

Previous suicide attempts is a high-risk factor with a repetition rate between 12-30 percent. Compliance with after treatment is often poor. A systematic review by Hawton, 1999 states a lack of evidence on psychosocial interventions due to selections bias or statistical power.

Objective

The aim is to investigate if assertive outreach, incorporating hands-on guidance and motivational support of compliance with follow-up treatment after suicide attempts is able to reduce the frequency of non-fatal and fatal suicide acts in a one-year follow-up period.

Method and Design

A randomized, controlled intervention trial in a prospective design. The patients included will be randomized to either standard treatment (n = 120) or intervention treatment (N = 120), representing 6 - 8 assertive outreach contacts with a research nurse after suicide attempts or deliberate self-harm. The outreach contacts are thought of as supporting and guiding home visits towards compliance with after care or follow-up treatment Inclusion criteria Males and females, aged 12 years or older with a recent suicide attempt or act of deliberate self-harm, living independently and not diagnosed with severe mental illness (psychosis, severe dementia)

Outcome

The primary outcome measure is repeated fatal suicidal act (fatal or non fatal)assessed by the Danish Cause of Death Register and the rate of repeated suicide attempts/deliberate self-harm registered in the medical records by the collaborating wards and units in their routine procedure of treating people applying for help in relation to suicidal behavior.
