[Acceptability of the systematic screening of suicidal adolescents in emergency departments]. / Acceptabilité du dépistage systématique des adolescents suicidants aux urgences.

ABSTRACT

Studies of adolescent suicide screening tools have increased with the development of questionnaires that can be used in paediatric emergency departments. This article proposes a literature review of the acceptability of such interventions. Although these tools are well accepted when they are systematized, their usefulness is determined by the availability of child psychiatric care with the right balance between the adolescent's confidentiality and parental involvement.
