Optimizing Suicide Prevention Strategies for Pediatric Primary Care

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Increasing rates of suicidal thoughts and behaviors among adolescents must be addressed. The study will adapt and collect preliminary effectiveness data on a digital suicide prevention intervention that can be delivered in pediatric primary care settings by front line pediatricians. The study has the potential to offer a low-cost and scalable primary care intervention that may decrease risk of suicide among at-risk youth.
