Pediatric Suicide Prevention in Emergency Departments (U01)

Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-14-070 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages cooperative research project grant (U01) applications aimed at developing and determining, prospectively, the sensitivity and specificity of approaches to screening and stratifying youth (under age 18) who are at risk for suicide in order to improve the overall care of these individuals in the Emergency Department (ED) setting. To optimize the generalizability of improved ED care to reduce suicidality, applications should develop screening and risk stratification approaches that can be tested across multiple general medical emergency department settings. Improved screening would inform subgroup-by-intervention pairing to increase impact and future intervention development to target modifiable risk factors within specific high risk groups.
