Conditions: Suicide, Mental Health Disorder, Anhedonia
Interventions: ViraSafe: Treatment pushes, BRITE
Countries: United States
Despite efforts to prevent suicide, US rates are climbing, and suicide is the second leading cause of death amongst youth. Digital tools, especially personal smartphones, are promising avenues to address these issues and can be used to increase engagement with effective interventions such as suicide safety planning. The BRITE suicide safety planning app was developed on evidence-based principles and has undergone rigorous formative development and effectiveness evaluations. However, to optimize its functionality, commercial viability, and scale its implementation, issues related to user engagement needed to be addressed. This 3 month Pragmatic Randomized Trial will evaluate the impact of the ViraSafe app-an enhanced version of the BRITE suicide safety planning app-on improving engagement with coping skills and safety planning among suicidal adolescents by comparing its intervention components to those of the original BRITE app.
