Studies Recruiting at ELFT

Summary: As people live longer, understanding how cognitive abilities change with age is increasingly important. Cognitive abilities generally decline slowly as we age, but in some cases, this decline can be more pronounced. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a condition where cognitive decline is greater than expected for someone's age but does not severely impact daily activities. This differentiates MCI from Alzheimer's dementia, a more serious condition involving significant brain cell death parallelled by cognitive and behavioural dysfunction. While distinct, MCI and dementia are related: 10-15% of those with MCI develop dementia each year, with 80% progressing within five years, making MCI an important dementia risk factor and a public health concern.
Pharmacological treatments for MCI are limited, but non-drug approaches like cognitive training show promise. These programs target various cognitive domains (e.g., language, memory, decision-making) and may include lifestyle interventions like exercise and nutrition. Cognitive training aims to strengthen cognitive abilities through structured tasks, improving both targeted and general cognitive functions.

This study focuses on the Five Lives MED mobile app, a comprehensive cognitive training program for individuals with MCI. Unlike alternatives that often target only one cognitive area or require in-person sessions, Five Lives MED combines various cognitive exercises with physical activity coaching in a self-guided digital format that can be accessed at home from one’s own mobile device, making it more accessible and scalable.

The study will assess the app's effectiveness in improving overall cognitive function in people with MCI. It will also evaluate its impact on specific thinking skills, quality of life, health knowledge, daily activities, and behavioural symptoms. By testing this app, the study aims to offer a practical and effective tool for managing MCI and potentially delaying the onset of dementia.

Summary:  The aim of the PPiP2 study is to assess large number of people suffering from psychosis and identify those with anti-neuronal membrane antibodies in their serum which might be causing their illness. Participants with anti-neuronal membrane antibodies will be invited to take part in the SINAPPS2 trial. The immune system normally controls our ability to fight infection. If the immune system goes wrong it may attack our own body, causing diseases called ‘autoimmune’ diseases. It has been discovered that some of these autoimmune diseases can affect the brain, and in the early stages of the disease they can manifest through symptoms of psychosis.

We can diagnose some of these autoimmune diseases using blood tests to detect specific antibodies.  We are specifically interested in antibodies that may be the cause of symptoms of psychosis and possibly in some cases of schizophrenia. 

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria:

Summary: This randomised controlled trial aims to identify which brief, remote psychosocial intervention for people with SMHPs who report recent suicidal ideation or suicide attempt is most clinically effective and cost-effective in preventing avoidable admissions in comparison to treatment as usual. Furthermore, it aims to determine the safety of the interventions. The brief remote interventions compared include structured peer support and safety planning. 

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria: 

Inclusion Criteria: 

• Currently receiving care from a Home-Based Treatment Team/ Crisis team or have done so within the last 14 days, since referrals to HBTT/Crisis team are associated with increased risk of a psychiatric hospital admission in the near future. 
• Aged 16+ 
• Meet criteria for a diagnosis of SMHP (schizophrenia spectrum, bipolar, major depressive disorder, EUPD, PTSD or cPTSD) since these diagnoses account for the majority of PHAs for mental health difficulties 
• Experienced suicidal ideation or attempt within the last month / current crisis episode, as operationalised by answering ‘yes’ to items 1 or 2 of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale. 
• Able to provide informed consent. 
• Receiving care from a Community Mental Health Team or Early Intervention Service, to ensure ongoing specialist mental health support following discharge from HBTT. 

Exclusion Criteria: 

• Organic impairment, as this could be the cause of mental health symptoms rather than a SMHP. 
• Non-English speaking, since two of the interventions are remotely delivered talking therapies and one of the interventions is a smartphone app which has only been developed in English. Provision for non-English speakers would be impossible on both financial and logistical grounds. 
• Primary diagnosis of a drug or alcohol dependence, as this could be the cause of mental health symptoms rather than a SMHP. 
• Moderate to severe learning disability as confirmed by the participants responsible clinician in their care team 
• Immediate risk to others, for ethical and safety reasons 
• Currently receiving psychiatric inpatient care (since people in recent contact with crisis teams may have already been admitted to hospital)

Summary: Suicide is the second-leading cause of death in young people globally according to the WHO (2014), and the strongest predictor of suicide is self-harm. Despite many young people presenting to emergency departments with self-harm, many of them have repeat attendances with very low rates of adolescents attending follow-up appointments. The aim of SASH, a randomised controlled trial, is to evaluate the clinical- and cost-effectiveness of a new brief psychological intervention in reducing repeat self-harm compared to treatment as usual in adolescents with self-harm who present to emergency departments.

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria: 

Inclusion Criteria: 

• 12-19 years old 
• Presenting in crisis to the ED with self-harm or suicidal ideation with recent self-harm (within one month) 

Exclusion Criteria: 

• Possible Learning Disability, judged by clinician 
• Need for intensive treatment (i.e. more intensive treatment than the intervention offers e.g. 
• Tier 3.5 or an inpatient psychiatric admission) 
• Current psychotic episode 
• Registered with a GP outside of the MH trust catchment area

Summary: CONTACT-GAD aims to evaluate the clinical and cost-effectiveness of a psychological intervention for treatment resistant Generalised Anxiety Disorder (TR-GAD) in older people within a randomised controlled trial. Generalised Anxiety Disorder is the most common anxiety disorder in older people, with an estimated prevalence of up to 11%. Although Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is not part of the current care pathway in the UK for older people in TR-GAD, it may be particularly suited to older people with TR-GAD. The study will determine the effectiveness of tailored Acceptance and Commitment Therapy plus usual care in comparison to usual care alone for reducing anxiety in older people with TR-GAD.

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria: 

Inclusion Criteria: 

• Aged ≥60 years; 
• Diagnosis of GAD using the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview 
• GAD that is ‘treatment resistant’, defined as GAD that has failed to respond adequately to pharmacotherapy and/or psychotherapy treatment, as described in step 3 of the UK's stepped care model for GAD 
• Living in the community (i.e. those living in domestic residences or assisted living facilities, but not care homes). 

Exclusion Criteria: 

• Judged to lack capacity to provide fully informed written consent to participate in the trial 
• A diagnosis of dementia or intellectual disability using standard diagnostic guidelines, or clinically judged to have moderate or severe cognitive impairment (e.g. due to probable dementia, traumatic brain injury, stroke, etc) 
• A diagnosis of an imminently life-limiting illness where they would not be expected to survive for the duration of the study 
• Expressing suicidal ideation with active suicidal behaviours/plans and active intent, as assessed using the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale Screener (40), for whom an inpatient admission would be more appropriate 
• Currently receiving a course of formal psychological therapy delivered by a formally trained psychologist or psychotherapist (e.g. CBT, psychodynamic psychotherapy, systemic therapy, counselling, etc), or those who are unwilling to refrain from engaging in such formal psychological therapy should they be randomly allocated to the ACT arm 
• Self-report having received ACT in the FACTOID feasibility study 
• Having already been randomised in the CONTACT-GAD trial or living with another person who has already been randomised in the CONTACT-GAD trial 
• Taking part in clinical trials of other interventions for GAD

Summary: There are lots of problems with dementia diagnosis in the NHS and more cost-effective tools that can support timely and accurate diagnosis are needed. Dementia pathologies target the auditory brain and can cause early changes in auditory scene analysis, spatial hearing and degraded speech perception. DIADEM is an observational cohort study which will aims to evaluate the utility of digital auditory biomarkers to support the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and stratification of patients with mild cognitive disorder in NHS memory clinics.

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria: 

Inclusion Criteria: 

• Participant is attending a memory clinic for evaluation of whether they might be suffering from dementia OR Participant is a healthy control subject from the same age range as the memory clinic sample 
• Willingness to take part in the study 
• Participant is over 18 years of age 

Exclusion criteria: 

• Healthy controls will be excluded if they have significant neurological or psychiatric comorbidities e.g. Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Major Depression, Bipolar Disorder or Psychotic Illness

Summary: People with Intellectual Disability who display offending behaviour, or extreme behaviours that challenge, may be managed in prison or in a mental health hospital.

When they struggle with their mental health they may need to be transferred to a hospital from prison. Or they may need to be transferred to a secure hospital ward that has a higher level of security and staff to keep them safe.

In these situations, clinicians (Doctors, Nurses and Psychologists) do assessments to decide which is the best place for these people. These are called Access Assessments.

There are scoring tools that can be used as part of Access Assessments to help clinicians decide where someone should be cared for but these haven’t been researched for people with Intellectual Disability. If these tools work for those with Intellectual Disability then it will help make sure they are transferred to the right place that will keep them safe and help them get well.

This project will review Access Assessments for transfer to secure hospitals over the past few years in patient’s health records to see if the DUNDRUM scoring tool could help clinicians make better decisions. All personal information (like names and addresses) will be removed before an independent doctor looks at the assessment and decide the DUNDRUM score.

The research will indicate if the DUNDRUM scoring tool works for people with Intellectual Disability. Results will be published in scientific journals and the findings shared with people with Intellectual Disability and their families and carers.

Summary:  Cognitive assessments (used to assess mental abilities like memory) are an important part of clinical assessments in some settings, e.g. memory clinics where assessments of dementia are conducted. They help the clinicians decide if, for example, someone has dementia. This study therefore aims to see whether maths ability is linked with Dot Counting Test (DCT) performance.

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria:

Inclusion criteria:

Inclusion criteria will be any patient under the care of East London NHS Foundation Trust’s forensic mental health services, whether they be inpatients or residing in the community.

Participants must be at least 18 years old, and have capacity to consent.

Exclusion criteria:  

Exclusion criteria are those that lack mental capacity to give informed consent, those that are sufficiently impaired by acute symptoms of mental illness that they would not be able to attend/concentrate sufficiently to the testing process, and those that would present too great a risk of harm to others that they could not be alone safely in a room with a researcher.

Summary: The Transforming Care Agenda was set out by the UK government in 2011 following an abusive incident against people with learning disabilities at Winterbourne View, an independent hospital. The main action from this plan was to move patients back into community care. As support workers and managers are key mediators in approaches to ensure that people with learning disabilities can have a good quality of life, there is very little research that has been done looking at their experiences and direct impact it can make.

This study seeks to find out what is the experience of support workers and managers, who are supporting people with learning disabilities who have moved from inpatient to community settings as part of the Transforming Care Agenda?

Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria:

Inclusion criteria: Support Workers and Managers recruited from ELFT Community LD Teams.
