Using a Digital Mental Health Intervention for Crisis Support and Mental Health Care Among Children and Adolescents With Self-Injurious Thoughts and Behaviors: Retrospective Study
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Background Self-injurious thoughts and behaviors (SITBs) are increasing dramatically among children and adolescents. Crisis support is intended to provide immediate mental health care, risk mitigation, and intervention for those experiencing SITBs and acute mental health distress. Digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) have emerged as accessible and effective alternatives to in-person care; however, most do not provide crisis support or ongoing care for children and adolescents with SITBs. Objective To inform the development of digital crisis support and mental health care for children and adolescents presenting with SITBs, this study aims to (1) characterize children and adolescents with SITBs who participate in a digital crisis response service, (2) compare anxiety and depressive symptoms of children and adolescents presenting with SITBs versus those without SITBs throughout care, and (3) suggest future steps for the implementation of digital crisis support and mental health care for children and adolescents presenting with SITBs. Methods This retrospective study was conducted using data from children and adolescents (aged 1-17 y; N=2161) involved in a pediatric collaborative care DMHI. SITB prevalence was assessed during each live session. For children and adolescents who exhibited SITBs during live sessions, a rapid crisis support team provided evidence-based crisis support services. Assessments were completed approximately once a month to measure anxiety and depressive symptom severity. Demographics, mental health symptoms, and change in the mental health symptoms of children and adolescents presenting with SITBs (group with SITBs) were compared to those of children and adolescents with no SITBs (group without SITBs). Results Compared to the group without SITBs (1977/2161, 91.49%), the group with SITBs (184/2161, 8.51%) was mostly made up of adolescents (107/184, 58.2%) and female children and adolescents (118/184, 64.1%). At baseline, compared to the group without SITBs, the group with SITBs had more severe anxiety and depressive symptoms. From before to after mental health care with the DMHI, the 2 groups did not differ in the rate of children and adolescents with anxiety symptom improvement (group with SITBs: 54/70, 77% vs group without SITBs: 367/440, 83.4%; χ21=1.2; P=.32) as well as depressive symptom improvement (group with SITBs: 58/72, 81% vs group without SITBs: 255/313, 81.5%; χ21=0; P=.99). The 2 groups also did not differ in the amount of change in symptom severity during care with the DMHI for anxiety (t80.20=1.37; P=.28) and depressive (t83.75=–0.08; P=.99) symptoms. Conclusions This study demonstrates that participation in a collaborative care DMHI is associated with improved mental health outcomes in children and adolescents experiencing SITBs. These results provide preliminary insights for the use of pediatric DMHIs in crisis support and mental health care for children and adolescents presenting with SITBs, thereby addressing the public health issue of acute mental health crisis in children and adolescents.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
