Both groups demonstrated highly significant reductions in parasuicidal behavior, depressive symptoms, and suicidal ideation at 1 year. 51 Tebbett-Mock et al conducted a retrospective observational study of the efficacy of DBT versus TAU on an acute-care adolescent inpatient unit where the mean hospitalized period was 8 days (and 11 days for the TAU group). 50 Compared to TAU the DBT group had fewer mean hours of constant observation for suicidal ideation (2.37 vs 10.55 hrs), self-injury (0.72 vs 6.19 hrs) and aggression (1.15 vs 3.89 hrs).
