What this trial studies
This observational study aims to estimate the 12-month prevalence of brief suicidal crises in outpatient psychiatric practice and a population-based sample in the Clermont-Ferrand area. It uses a single visit per participant to collect data and self-administered questionnaires to describe the crisis and related factors. Secondary aims include describing the study population, examining factors like age and sex, and assessing psychological pain during crises of both less than and greater than 24 hours. The study is led by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand, and conducted at CHU de Clermont-Ferrand with no listed collaborators.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, findings could improve understanding of how often brief suicidal crises occur and inform targeted screening and early intervention in psychiatric settings.
How similar studies have gone: Previous research has explored suicidal crises and prevalence in psychiatric settings, but this study addresses a specific brief (<24 hours) crisis in a defined French catchment area, contributing new, localized prevalence data.
