Brief Summary: The present study consists of 3 projects in total It aims to investigate the neuro- psychological patterns from suicidal ideation to suicidal behavior as well as the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of ASSIP flex

The overall aim of Project 3 is to evaluate the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of ASSIP flex over a 12-month follow-up period in terms of suicide reattempts and suicide correlates in a cohort who is attending ASSIP flex after a suicide attempt
Detailed Description: Purpose and aims

In project 3 the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of ASSIP flex setting over a 12-month follow-up period will be investigated To investigate that the present study examines the newly implemented ASSIP flex service developed and implemented at the University Hospital of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy Bern Switzerland

Background

In Switzerland approximately three people die by suicide every day and suicide attempts exceed this number by far As a previous suicide attempt is one of the strongest predictors of a completed suicide it is of utmost importance to identify the people at risk However research has shown that traditional risk factors eg depression psychiatric disorder etc reliably predict suicide ideation but poorly predict suicidal behavior Furthermore while effective suicide-specific interventions exist up to 50 of the suicide attempters reject the recommended treatment and around 60 discontinue treatment after one session Hence a different approach is required In this study three projects will be conducted Project 3 evaluates the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of ASSIP flex

Study design of Project 3

The present study examines longitudinally and observationally the newly implemented ASSIP flex at the University Hospital of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy Bern Switzerland and four additional recruitment centers Patients after a suicide attempt who are immobile andor not able to participate in the regular ASSIP due to other reasons eg shame or fear of stigmatization are asked to participate in the ASSIP flex project Moreover the ASSIP flex will be implemented and investigated in four additional recruitment centers in Switzerland 1 Sanatorium Kilchberg in Zurich 2 Psychiatric Hospital University of Zurich PUKZH 3 Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois CHUV 4 Center Neuchâtelois de Psychiatrie CNP

All ASSIP flex patients who have agreed to participate in Project 3 ASSIP flex are asked to complete a baseline assessment filling out questionnaires before the first ASSIP flex session This baseline assessment is conducted in the patients environment ie where the ASSIP flex sessions are carried out

After the baseline assessment the participants receive ASSIP flex in their personal environment and after each ASSIP Flex session process measurements therapeutic alliance are completed Moreover repeated measurements are conducted after four-six weeks and 12 months follow-up to assess long-term effects

In project 3 of this study no randomization took place and all participants in this group received ASSIP flex

To investigate the feasibility and effects of ASSIP flex therapists will also be asked to complete some questionnaires After the last flex session of each case they are asked to fill out a brief questionnaire to rate their experiences with this ASSIP flex case Finally therapists are asked one year and two years after their ASSIP training to fill out a short questionnaire about their experiences with the ASSIP flex
