Many studies on internet-based therapy exclude participants with suicide thoughts. The aim of two studies is to provide an overview of the current practice in the management of suicidality in RCTs of internet interventions for depression and suicide thoughts.

Based on this overview, best-practice recommendations regarding how to manage suicidality in research on internet interventions for depression was published in 2020.
