Description

Ryutaro Ishibashi and co-authors set out a trial plan from 2025 for helping people who were in hospital after a suicide attempt. The time soon after leaving hospital carries high risk, yet proven support for this group in Japan is still thin. The ACTION-JP study tests a hands-on support program across many hospitals.

About two hundred twenty adults will join the single-group trial. Care starts with lessons in hospital, then continues with close case support for eighteen months after discharge. The main check is change in a standard suicide risk score at six months. Other checks cover repeat attempts, mood, and daily function. Results should guide a larger trial and future care.
