Abstract
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this review is to provide an overview of the existing literature on psychosocial interventions aimed at addressing suicidality among adults in the context of an inpatient psychiatric admission.
INTRODUCTION
For individuals admitted to a psychiatric inpatient unit, their risk of suicide in the period following discharge is significantly higher compared to the prevalence of death by suicide in the general population. During an inpatient admission, there is opportunity for supportive interventions that may lead to reduced risks of suicide. Yet, interventions that directly address suicidality have primarily been studied in outpatient settings. A broader understanding of inpatient interventions will assist clinicians in understanding key considerations when implementing suicide-related interventions in this setting.
INCLUSION CRITERIA
Studies involving adult patients (≥18 y) that describe psychosocial interventions aiming to address suicidality in the context of inpatient psychiatry will be considered. Studies that only describe pharmacological interventions will be excluded, as will studies that describe psychosocial interventions initiated in the context of an outpatient setting.
METHODS
We will search MEDLINE (Ovid), CINAHL (EBSCO), APA PsycINFO (EBSCOhost), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Embase (Ovid), and Web of Science for studies in English and Spanish. Gray literature and materials will also be searched for using Google and websites relevant to the review topic. No date limit will be set. Two independent reviewers will screen titles and abstracts from studies that meet the inclusion criteria and review eligible studies at full text. Data will be extracted and synthesized and then presented in tabular and graphical formats accompanied by a narrative summary.
