Official title
Decreasing Suicide Risk Among Service Members With Posttraumatic Stress Using Written Exposure Therapy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
In this study, the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the efficacy of the WET-S + treatment as usual (TAU) compared with TAU among high-risk, suicidal service members with PTSD or posttraumatic stress (PTS) admitted to the Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center (CRDAMC) acute inpatient psychiatry unit at Fort Hood, Texas. Suicide risk and PTS symptom severity are the primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes include subsequent hospitalizations for suicidal thoughts and behaviors and suicide attempts. Investigators will conduct a needs assessment with stakeholders during the RCT to develop a tool kit for WET implementation in other DoD inpatient psychiatry units.
