Systematic review of risk factors for suicide in depression
We are currently carrying out a study to bring together the international scientific literature on risk factors for suicide in people with depression. This study will provide the evidence to develop a risk assessment tool intended to be used in NHS clinical settings, especially primary care, in order to improve the detection of individuals most at risk and to aid prevention of suicide in this population. The researchers directly involved in this systematic review are: Carolina Casañas i Comabella, Dr Kate Saunders, Professor Keith Hawton and Dr Camilla Haw. This study is funded by the Judi Meadows Memorial Fund. It will be completed in the summer of 2012.
