About the S-STS CMCM:
The Clinically Meaningful Change Measure (CMCM) version of the S-STS has 45 risk / protective factors and 20 questions on suicidal compounding features in addition to the standard S-STS. It is designed for use as a primary outcome measure in clinical research studies investigating the efficacy of anti-suicidality medications. It can also be used for training on how to do a comprehensive suicidality assessment and for comprehensive suicidality assessments in clinical, forensic, and medico-legal settings.
The S-STS CMCM was developed with extensive patient input over several years. This is an ongoing process. Dr. Sheehan tries to ensure that all of his scales are patient-centric.
About the S-STS:
The Sheehan – Suicidality Tracking Scale (S-STS) is a short scale designed to assess and monitor over time the core phenomena of suicidality. The same version can be used either as a clinician-rated scale or as a patient-rated scale, or both together at the same visit. The standard version was designed for use in clinical research studies as a safety assessment measure, to detect treatment emergent suicidality, and as a treatment outcome measure that is very sensitive to change. The S-STS is available in 3 age-related, linguistically validated pediatric versions (for 6 to 8 year olds, for 9 to 12 year olds, and for 13 to 17 year olds). The more expanded S-STS Clinically Meaningful Change Measure version (S-STS CMCM) addresses the needs of those who want to do a more comprehensive suicidality assessment clinically or who want a more comprehensive primary outcome measure when investigating the anti-suicidality treatment effects of medications. The S-STS CMCM is available in both adult and adolescent versions.
