To examine whether pharmacists and pharmacy staff who complete a suicide prevention gatekeeper training program (Pharm-SAVES) react similarly to a written patient case, a live simulated patient (SP), and a prerecorded SP case.
After completing the 30-min Pharm-SAVES training, participants completed a written patient case via survey and then, 1 month later, completed a prerecorded SP and live SP interaction via Zoom. For each assessment type, we documented whether the participant asked about suicide and referred the patient to the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (988).
Participants ( = 12) asked about suicide in 8 (67 %) written patient cases, 9 (75 %) prerecorded SP cases, and 8 (67 %) live SP cases. Participants referred patients to 988 in 8 (67 %) written patient cases, 5 (42 %) prerecorded SP cases, and 10 (83 %) live SP cases.
The number of participants who asked about suicide was similar regardless of assessment type; however, referrals to the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline happened less often with the prerecorded SP cases.
This is the first study to compare key learning outcomes of pharmacy suicide prevention gatekeeper training across written, live, and prerecorded SP encounters.
研究完成自杀预防守门人培训项目（Pharm-SAVES）的药剂师和药房工作人员对书面患者病例、现场模拟患者（标准化病人，SP）以及预先录制的SP病例的反应是否相似。
在完成30分钟的Pharm-SAVES培训后，参与者通过调查问卷完成一份书面患者病例，然后在1个月后，通过Zoom完成一次预先录制的SP和现场SP互动。对于每种评估类型，我们记录参与者是否询问了自杀情况并将患者转介至自杀与危机生命线（988）。
参与者（n = 12）在8例（67%）书面患者病例、9例（75%）预先录制的SP病例和8例（67%）现场SP病例中询问了自杀情况。参与者在8例（67%）书面患者病例、5例（42%）预先录制的SP病例和10例（83%）现场SP病例中将患者转介至988。
无论评估类型如何，询问自杀情况的参与者数量相似；然而，预先录制的SP病例中转介至自杀与危机生命线的情况较少。
这是第一项比较书面、现场和预先录制的SP接触中药房自杀预防守门人培训关键学习成果的研究。
