NCT06719713
The researchers are testing a firearm safety prevention strategy tailored for families with children who reside in a rural area. Researchers hypothesize that the intervention will lead to improvements in household firearm storage.
NCT06582953
The study's goal is to perform an evaluation of a Southeastern hospital violence intervention program (HVIP) that includes comprehensive patient outcomes, perceived benefits and opportunities for improvement of an HVIP from the perspectives of multiple stakeholders including patients, family members and healthcare providers.
NCT04804189
Modifiable risk factors for youth firearm injury and death include unsafe storage of a firearm in the home, prior victimization/aggression, substance use, and depressive symptoms, yet there are few partnerships with firearm owners and firearm safety training programs to implement effective, non-policy-based preventive interventions for youth firearm injury. This study will conduct a hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Guardians 4 Health, a bystander intervention designed to promote changes in firearm injury prevention norms, attitudes, intentions, and behaviors among a sample up to 60 4-H Shooting Sports Club communities comprising both adults and youth. This project is designed to build the evidence base for interventions that promote safe behaviors related to youth firearm use and injury prevention and advance firearm injury prevention science by supporting a synergistic partnership between well-established firearm injury, suicide, and violence prevention researchers and the national 4-H Shooting Sports community.
NCT05887973
The goal of this study is to help build the evidence base for a locally-relevant youth firearm violence prevention program in Washington D.C., a city experiencing disparities in youth firearm violence outcomes. The main question it aims to answer is: How is youth participation in the summer youth employment program, the True Reasons I Grabbed the Gun Evolved from Risk (The T.R.I.G.G.E.R Project), which is designed to address root causes of gun violence, associated with individual youth behavioral outcomes, including pro-social involvement, aggression, and firearm-related attitudes and behaviors?
NCT06618794
Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Programs (HVIPs) affiliated with trauma centers in the US often focus on individual behavior modification for reduction in re-victimization. There is a lack of reproducible evidence that has demonstrated effectiveness, given the exclusion of addressing inequities in the Social and Structural Determinants of Health (SSDOH), often the root causes of violent injury and preventable homicide. The study investigators created a Medical Legal Partnership (MLP) to partner with an existing HVIP. This novel program offers beside legal assistance to address the SSDOH. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the HVIP-MLP program in improving violence-related outcomes, legal needs, health-related quality of life, PTSD symptoms, and perceived stress.
NCT05657119
Our parallel group clinical trial of the Family Safety Net (FSN) intervention addresses two main questions: * Is the Family Safety Net (FSN) intervention feasible and acceptable in two formats: motivational interviewing (FSN MI) counseling session and scripted psychoeducational session (FSN Scripted), with a primarily Alaska Native population in Northwest Alaska? * Secondarily, are there signals of efficacy at improving home safety (firearms unloaded, locked with ammunition separate) and dangerous medication locked? All participants will complete a baseline survey with firearm storage questions as well as 3 questions about mental health concerns in their family (e.g. 'Are you worried that someone in your home is at risk of suicide?'). * If participants answer "yes" to any of these questions, they will be randomly assigned to one of the two FSN intervention groups (1 and 2 below). * If they do not endorse any of the three family-focused mental health questions, they will be randomly assigned to one of two general firearm safety conditions (3 and 4 below). 1. FSN MI group will participate in a 15-20-minute motivational interviewing (MI) session conducted by trained research staff focused on suicide lethal means reduction. 2. FSN Scripted group will participate in a 10-minute scripted session focused on suicide lethal means reduction. Both FSN groups (1 and 2): * Can take home trigger locks, cable locks, ammo boxes, medication boxes and mental health resources * Receive 4 weeks of tailored text message reminders and encouragement. * Complete 1-month follow-up survey consisting of items related to firearm storage, and facilitating factors hypothesized to contribute to this behavior. * Participants in both FSN conditions will be invited to participate in a semi-structured interview at follow-up focused on satisfaction and perceptions of the program. 3 General gun safety intervention group will participate in a 10-minute scripted conversation about safe gun storage practice, and: * Can take home trigger locks, cable locks, and ammo boxes. * Receive 4 weeks of tailored text message reminders and encouragement. * Complete 1-month follow-up survey consisting of items related to firearm storage, and facilitating factors hypothesized to contribute to this behavior. 4\. General gun safety comparison group: * Can take home trigger locks, cable locks, and ammo boxes. * Complete 1-month follow-up survey.
NCT06108141
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of REACH Firearm Safety in a sample of pediatric residents. The main question it aims to answer are: Do residents who have completed REACH Firearm Safety have increased documentation in the electronic medical records for screening and counseling for safe firearm storage? Participants will be asked to engage in a virtual reality curriculum (REACH Firearm Safety). Researchers will compare the REACH Firearm safety group to a group of participants who complete an abbreviated online training.
