Summary

This study tests a suicide prevention package (PSuPP) in rural Nepal's primary care clinics. Researchers will train healthcare workers to better identify and support people at risk of suicide. The pilot involves 147 participants and focuses on whether the program is practical and acceptable, not yet on whether it saves lives. Results will guide a future larger trial.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Suicide Prevention Package (PSuPP) - a set of training tools and protocols for healthcare workers
What this could lead to: If successful, this could pave the way for a larger study that may improve suicide risk detection and care in low-resource primary care settings.
What could go wrong: This is a small pilot study focused on feasibility, not effectiveness. The results may not apply to other regions or health systems, and the intervention may not reduce suicide rates.
