The homeless population are among the most vulnerable groups to experience suicide ideation and behavior. Several studies have shown that people who are homeless experience more significant suicidal ideation and behavior than the general population. However, there is limited information about what suicide interventions exist, to what extent they are grounded in robust research, and which intervention components effectively reduce suicidal ideation and behavior in the homeless community. This research aimed to characterise the current evidence base in the area of suicide prevention for homeless individuals.
A scoping review guided by Arksey and O'Malley's five-stage framework was conducted and a narrative synthesis was performed. Pubmed, EMBASE, PsychInfo, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Open Grey, and Bielefeld Academic Search Engine were searched up to 8 May 2020.
A total of 3209 records were identified through database and grey literature searching. Three studies are included in this review. Key outcomes identify suicide intervention prevention programmes; similarities and differences across interventions, and examples of staff training. A quality review of the studies was completed.
A stark gap in the evidence of suicide specific prevention interventions targeted at homeless populations.
无家可归者是最容易产生自杀意念和行为的弱势群体之一。多项研究表明，无家可归者比一般人群经历更多的自杀意念和行为。然而，关于存在哪些自杀干预措施、这些措施在多大程度上基于强有力的研究以及哪些干预措施能有效地减少无家可归者社区的自杀意念和行为，信息有限。本研究旨在描述当前针对无家可归者的自杀预防领域的证据基础。
采用 Arksey 和 O'Malley 的五阶段框架进行了范围综述，并进行了叙述性综合。截至 2020 年 5 月 8 日，在 PubMed、EMBASE、PsychInfo、护理与联合健康文献累积索引（CINAHL）、Open Grey 和 Bielefeld 学术搜索引擎中进行了数据库和灰色文献搜索。
通过数据库和灰色文献搜索共确定了 3209 条记录。本综述纳入了三项研究。主要结果确定了自杀干预预防计划；干预措施之间的异同以及员工培训的例子。对研究进行了质量审查。
针对无家可归人群的特定自杀预防干预措施的证据明显不足。
