The CO-produced Psychosocial INtervention delivered by GPs to young people after self-harm (COPING): protocol for a feasibility study (2024)
Journal Article
Mughal, F., Chew-Graham, C. A., Saunders, B., Lawton, S. A., Lewis, S., Smith, J., …Lewis, M. (in press). The CO-produced Psychosocial INtervention delivered by GPs to young people after self-harm (COPING): protocol for a feasibility study. NIHR Open Research, 4(27), https://doi.org/10.3310/nihropenres.13576.1

Background
Self-harm in young people is a growing concern and reducing rates a global priority. General practitioners (GPs) can intervene early after self-harm but there are no effective treatments presently available. We developed the GP-led COPING...

Background
Conducting effective and translational research can be challenging and few trials undertake formal reflection exercises and disseminate learnings from them. Following completion of our multicentre randomised controlled trial, which was im...
