“…This method has not been used previously in testing interventions for suicidal behaviours. The statistical, ethical, and practical issues concerning the use of a randomised consent design have been extensively reviewed14 15 and, despite some of the difficulties, this design has been used in recently published studies 16 17…”

Objective To determine whether an intervention using postcards (postcards from the EDge project) reduces repetitions of hospital treated deliberate self poisoning. Design Randomised controlled trial. Setting Regional referral service for general hospital treated deliberate self poisoning in Newcastle, Australia. Participants 772 patients aged over 16 years with deliberate self poisoning. Intervention Non-obligatory intervention using eight postcards over 12 months along with standard treatment compared with standard treatment alone. Main outcome measures Proportion of patients with one or more repeat episodes of deliberate self poisoning and the number of repeat episodes for deliberate self poisoning per person in 12 months. Results The proportion of repeaters with deliberate self poisoning in the intervention group did not differ significantly from that in the control group (57/378, 15.1%, 95% confidence interval 11.5% to 18.7% v 68/394, 17.3%, 13.5% to 21.0%: difference between groups − 2%, − 7% to 3%). In unadjusted analysis the number of repetitions were significantly reduced (incidence risk ratio 0.55, 0.35 to 0.87). Conclusion A postcard intervention reduced repetitions of deliberate self poisoning, although it did not significantly reduce the proportion of individual repeaters.

“…Eligibility has varied from 30 to 60% of women assessed [300,301]. Hospital admission and days in hospital are reduced by day unit care, but outcomes and costs are similar [301][302][303][304]. Women prefer out-of-hospital care.…”

“…Specifically, we have information about women's views about methods of blood pressure (BP) measurement, place of care, and the information received about prognosis. Previous reports have documented a preference of hypertensive pregnant women for BP monitoring by home devices or in a daycare setting (i.e., obstetric day units), compared with traditional inpatient care (1)(2)(3). Home BP monitoring is preferred to 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring (4).…”
