RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: From 2004 to 2019, suicide rates among Black youth increased by 122 % for females and 65 % for males. Guided by the interpersonal theory of suicide, this study explored how perceptions of social support and parental involvement may contribute to suicidal behavior among Black youth aged 12-17 years. METHODS: Data are from the 2004-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). Multivariable logistic regression with backwards elimination was conducted to determine if characteristics associated with outcomes of interest (i.e., suicidal ideation, made a suicide plan, and made a suicide attempt) differed by sex. The characteristics examined included: age, poverty level, health insurance coverage, currently receiving mental health treatment, grades for last completed semester, parental involvement, frequency of arguments or fights with parents, frequency of fights at school or work, parental attitudes, and availability of emotional support. RESULTS: Over 400,000 Black youth with depression symptoms reported suicidal thoughts and behaviors (80 % female). Females had increased odds of suicidal ideation and making a plan if they had no one to talk to about serious problems. Males had increased odds of attempting suicide if they reported academic struggles. LIMITATIONS: This is a cross-sectional study and potential biases may affect generalizability of results. CONCLUSIONS: Risk and protective factors identified in this study aligned with the interpersonal theory of suicide. Evidence-based interventions that focus on increasing connectedness and self-esteem may be effective for Black youth struggling with suicidal ideation. Preventing suicide requires a comprehensive approach including prevention strategies for individuals, families, and communities.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Suicide attempt (SA) is the strongest predictive variable for completed suicide. The Department of Cauca in Colombia has an SA rate higher than the national average, but the factors are unknown. The objective was to identify the profiles of SA in children and adolescents of Cauca. METHODS: Cross-sectional study, which included all SA (Event-356) records from the SIVIGILA platform in children under 18 years of age between 2016 and 2019. The authors described the variables and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) with the Burt method, according to the completeness of the data to establish the possible SA profiles using STATA 15.1, and R. The Ethics Committee at Universidad del Cauca approved it. RESULTS: The study found 977 SA during this period, 72.4% female, 97.1% adolescent, 74.4% mestizo, 19.3% indigenous, 45.3% resided in municipalities exposed to the armed conflict, 32.3% expressed ideation and previous attempts, and 15.5% prior attempts. The MCA included 810 SA and identified three profiles: "Classic", which had mestizo adolescents with a history of prior SA, mental illness, or psychoactive substance use problems; "Related to the armed conflict", which included female adolescents with a first SA and residents in municipalities exposed to the armed conflict; "Ethnic" represented by male indigenous, with housing in a rural area. CONCLUSION: The SA profiles found in Cauca were "Classic", "Related to the armed conflict", and "Ethnic"; these can be considered to implement prevention strategies from a cross-cultural, mental health, and gender perspective, with the presence of the state in the territories.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The World Health Organization has called for improved surveillance of self-harm and suicide attempts worldwide to benefit suicide prevention programs. International comparisons of registrations are lacking, however, and there is a need for systematically collected, high-quality data across countries. The current study investigated healthcare professionals' perceptions of registration practices and their suggestions for ensuring high-quality registration of self-harm and suicide attempts. METHODS: Qualitative interviews (N = 20) were conducted among medical secretaries, medical doctors, nurses, and registration advisers from psychiatric and somatic emergency departments in all regions of Denmark between September 2022 and March 2023. Content analysis was performed using NVivo. RESULTS: Despite great efforts to standardize and assure the quality of registration in Denmark, almost all the healthcare professionals perceived registration practice as inconsistent and unreliable. Codes are often misclassified or unused due to insufficient time, non-standardized training, or insufficient information. The interview informants suggested that coding guidelines should be simplified and made more visible, alongside technical solutions in the electronic health record system. CONCLUSION: The study findings resulted in eight overall recommendations for clinical practice that aim at improving the registration of patients presenting with self-harm or suicide attempts. This would be expected to help improve surveillance and prevention programs.

RESUMEN

Background: Educational inequalities in suicide have become increasingly prominent over the past decade. Elucidating modifiable risk factors that serve as intermediaries in the impact of low educational attainment on suicide has the potential to reduce health disparities. Aims: To examine the risk factors that mediate the relationship between educational attainment and suicide attempts and quantify their contributions to the mediation effect. Methods: We conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis to estimate the causal effect of educational attainment on suicide attempts, utilising genome-wide association study summary statistics from the Integrative Psychiatric Research (iPSYCH; 6024 cases and 44 240 controls) and FinnGen (8978 cases and 368 299 controls). We systematically evaluated 42 putative mediators within the causal pathway connecting reduced educational attainment to suicide attempts and employed two-step and multivariable MR to quantify the proportion of the mediated effect. Results: In the combined analysis of iPSYCH and FinnGen, each standard deviation (SD) decrease in genetically predicted educational attainment (equating to 3.4 years of education) was associated with a 105% higher risk of suicide attempts (odds ratio (OR): 2.05; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.81 to 2.31). Of the 42 risk factors analysed, the two-step MR identified five factors that mediated the association between educational attainment and suicide attempts. The respective proportions of mediation were 47% (95% CI: 29% to 66%) for smoking behaviour, 36% (95% CI: 0% to 84%) for chronic pain, 49% (95% CI: 36% to 61%) for depression, 35% (95% CI: 12% to 59%) for anxiety and 26% (95% CI: 18% to 34%) for insomnia. Multivariable MR implicated these five mediators collectively, accounting for 68% (95% CI: 40% to 96%) of the total effect. Conclusions: This study identified smoking, chronic pain and mental disorders as primary intervention targets for attenuating suicide risk attributable to lower educational levels in the European population.

RESUMEN

Background: In early adolescence, youth are highly prone to suicidal behaviours. Identifying modifiable risk factors during this critical phase is a priority to inform effective suicide prevention strategies. Aims: To explore the risk and protective factors of suicidal behaviours (ie, suicidal ideation, plans and attempts) in early adolescence in China using a social-ecological perspective. Methods: Using data from the cross-sectional project 'Healthy and Risky Behaviours Among Middle School Students in Anhui Province, China', stratified random cluster sampling was used to select 5724 middle school students who had completed self-report questionnaires in November 2020. Network analysis was employed to examine the correlates of suicidal ideation, plans and attempts at four levels, namely individual (sex, academic performance, serious physical illness/disability, history of self-harm, depression, impulsivity, sleep problems, resilience), family (family economic status, relationship with mother, relationship with father, family violence, childhood abuse, parental mental illness), school (relationship with teachers, relationship with classmates, school-bullying victimisation and perpetration) and social (social support, satisfaction with society). Results: In total, 37.9%, 19.0% and 5.5% of the students reported suicidal ideation, plans and attempts in the past 6 months, respectively. The estimated network revealed that suicidal ideation, plans and attempts were collectively associated with a history of self-harm, sleep problems, childhood abuse, school bullying and victimisation. Centrality analysis indicated that the most influential nodes in the network were history of self-harm and childhood abuse. Notably, the network also showed unique correlates of suicidal ideation (sex, weight=0.60; impulsivity, weight=0.24; family violence, weight=0.17; relationship with teachers, weight=-0.03; school-bullying perpetration, weight=0.22), suicidal plans (social support, weight=-0.15) and suicidal attempts (relationship with mother, weight=-0.10; parental mental illness, weight=0.61). Conclusions: This study identified the correlates of suicidal ideation, plans and attempts, and provided practical implications for suicide prevention for young adolescents in China. Firstly, this study highlighted the importance of joint interventions across multiple departments. Secondly, the common risk factors of suicidal ideation, plans and attempts were elucidated. Thirdly, this study proposed target interventions to address the unique influencing factors of suicidal ideation, plans and attempts.

RESUMEN

Background: Suicide is a public health problem, which has increased in recent years, becoming a serious cause of mortality, mostly in low- and middle-income countries. Suicidal behavior is infrequent before adolescent years, various related factors have been described. The purpose of this work is to describe the case of a patient in school age who attempted suicide and the identified factors that might have contributed. Clinical case: Nine-year-old male attempted suicide by hanging in the bathroom, endangering his life. He received emergency attention and hospitalized in intensive care. During his hospitalization, the mental health service approached him. Amongst the factors previously associated with suicidal intent during school age and identifiable in the patient are family disintegration, symptoms of major depression episodes, reading-related learning difficulties and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The patient received treatment and follow up consultation, without showing any suicidal behavior up to this date. The patient is currently 13 years old. Conclusions: It must be recognized that children of school age can present suicidal behavior. It is important to acknowledge the factors associated with this kind of behavior, to reduce risks and provide an opportune attention and handling.


Introducción: el suicidio es un problema de salud pública que se ha incrementado en los últimos años, convirtiéndose en una grave causa de mortalidad principalmente en países de ingresos bajos y medios. Las conductas suicidas son poco frecuentes antes de la adolescencia, por lo que se han descrito diversos factores relacionados. El propósito de este trabajo es describir el caso de un paciente en edad escolar que intentó suicidarse y las causas identificadas que pudieron influir. Caso clínico: paciente masculino de nueve años puso su vida en riesgo al intentar suicidarse por ahorcamiento en el cuarto de baño. Recibió atención de urgencia y estuvo en la terapia intensiva. Durante su hospitalización fue abordado por el servicio de salud mental. Entre los factores que han sido previamente asociados al intento suicida en la edad escolar que pudieron identificarse en el paciente se encuentran: desintegración familiar, síntomas de episodio depresivo grave, dificultad en el aprendizaje para la lectura y un trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad. El paciente recibió tratamiento y seguimiento, hasta el día de hoy no ha vuelto a presentar comportamientos suicidas. Actualmente tiene trece años. Conclusiones: se debe reconocer que los niños en edad escolar pueden presentar comportamientos suicidas, y es importante conocer los factores asociados a este tipo de conductas. Esto, con la finalidad de poder reducir el riesgo, así como otorgar atención y manejo de forma oportuna.

RESUMEN

Background: Patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD) have an increased risk of suicide. Neuroimmunological measures, such as cytokines, are shown to deviate in people with attempted suicide. Few studies have investigated this among AUD patients. Patients and Methods: One-hundred and fourteen patients undergoing residential treatment for AUD were interviewed on lifetime suicide attempts (SA) along with several other background variables and clinical characteristics. Serum blood samples were drawn for analysis of cytokines. Results: Thirty-one patients (27%) reported at least one SA. These patients had more symptoms of current affective disorders and more severe dependence. In bivariate analysis only IL-6 and IL-10 appeared to be associated with lifetime SA but without reaching statistical significance. In multivariate linear regression, adjusting for sex, nicotine use, somatic illness, and the use of anti-inflammatory drugs, IL-6 was associated to SA (p = 0.033). Conclusion: The cytokine IL-6 has repeatedly been found to be associated with suicidality. The present study concurs with this role of IL-6 in a naturalistic observational study of AUD patients.

RESUMEN

Fundamento los intentos de suicidio en edades pediátricas son un problema actual con tendencia creciente a nivel mundial. Este grupo es muy vulnerable a la acción de factores internos y externos que alteran su integridad. En Cuba, a pesar de los logros obtenidos en ese sentido, también se considera como un problema de salud mental. Objetivo caracterizar desde el punto de vista clínico y epidemiológico a pacientes pediátricos con intento suicida. Métodos se realizó un estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo y de corte transversal, en el Hospital Pediátrico Provincial Octavio Concepción y de la Pedraja, de la provincia de Holguín, en el periodo enero/2020-diciembre/2021. Se trabajó con la totalidad del universo, conformado por 397 pacientes atendidos en la institución hospitalaria por intento suicida en el periodo de estudio. Las variables estudiadas fueron: edad, sexo, procedencia y método utilizado. Se empleó la estadística descriptiva. Resultados predominaron los pacientes con edades entre 16 y 18 años (48,4 %), del sexo femenino (74,6 %) y de procedencia urbana (70,3 %). El 92,2 % utilizó como método de suicidio la ingestión de psicofármacos. Conclusiones las variables estudiadas se comportan de forma similar a lo descrito en otras poblaciones y contextos, en los cuales también predominaron las adolescentes de procedencia urbana que ingirieron psicofármacos.


Background suicide attempts in pediatric ages are a current problem with a growing trend worldwide. This group is very vulnerable to the action of internal and external factors that alter their integrity. In Cuba, despite the achievements in this regard, it is also considered a mental health problem. Objective to characterize, from the clinical and epidemiological point of view, pediatric patients with suicide attempts. Methods a descriptive, retrospective and cross-sectional study was carried out at the Octavio Concepción y de la Pedraja Provincial Pediatric Hospital, in the Holguín province, from January/2020 to December/2021. The entire universe was analyzed made up of 397 patients, treated at the hospital for suicide attempts during the studied period. The variables were: age, sex, origin and method used. Descriptive statistics were used. Results patients aged between 16 and 18 years old (48.4%), female (74.6%) and urban origin (70.3%) predominated. 92.2% used the ingestion of psychotropic drugs as a method of suicide. Conclusions the studied variables behave in a similar way to that described in other populations and contexts, in which adolescents from urban origin who ingested psychoactive drugs also predominated.

RESUMEN

Deep brain stimulation (DBS), a treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD), has been associated with suicidality. We conducted a case-control study comparing suicide in four pairs of cohorts: PD patients with DBS or not, epilepsy patients with resection surgery or not, subjects with BMI≥30 with bariatric surgery or not, and patients with chronic kidney disease with transplantation or not. PD patients with DBS demonstrated a lower risk of suicide relative to PD patients without DBS. Findings from other elective surgeries indicate that patients receiving operative treatments do not possess predictable differences in suicide rates relative to their medically managed counterparts.

RESUMEN

Several chemical substances cause toxicological damage to individuals, triggering Exogenous Intoxication (EI) with relevant fatal potential. It is, therefore, essential to describe and compare the epidemiological profile of EI cases reported in Bahia before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A quantitative analytical approach was used, and secondary data were extracted, in August 2022, from the Notifiable Diseases Information System, cases of EI between January 2018 and December 2021, Bahia. Age, sex, color, circumstance, and causative agent were analyzed and described in frequency and proportions, 12,838 cases of EI were reported between 2018-2019. The highest incidence occurred in individuals aged 20-59 years (57.8%), females (59%), and browns (48.8%). Among toxic agents, medication (40.3%) stood out, followed by food and beverages (10%), rodenticides (6.8%), and drugs of abuse (6%). Among the circumstances: suicide attempt was highlighted (33.5%). In 2020 and 2021, there were 11,279 cases, higher incidence in individuals aged 20-59 years (59.5%), females (58%), and browns (55%). The toxic agent medication (41.9%) stood out, followed by drugs (10.2%), food and beverages (7.8%), and household products (5.7%). Similar to the previous period, suicide led among circumstances (36.5%). The pandemic did not seem to affect epidemiology significantly. However, the almost 50% increase in the frequency of EI cases due to drug abuse, reinforces the World Report on Drugs (2021), which pointed to a worldwide growth of drugs consumption during the pandemic and alerts attention to mental health of Brazilians.(AU)


Diversas substâncias químicas causam danos toxicológicos aos indivíduos, podendo deflagrar intoxicação exógena (IE) com relevante potencial fatal. É imprescindível assim, descrever e comparar perfil o epidemiológico dos casos de IE notificados na Bahia antes e durante a pandemia da COVID-19. Utilizou-se abordagem quantitativa analítica, com dados secundários extraídos, em agosto de 2022, do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação, sobre casos de IE, entre janeiro de 2018 a dezembro de 2021, na Bahia. Variáveis idade, sexo, cor, circunstância, agente causador foram analisadas e descritas em frequência e proporções. Foram notificados 12.838 casos de IE entre 2018-2019, a maior incidência ocorreu em indivíduos de 20-59 anos (57,8%), sexo feminino (59%), pardos (48,8%). Entre agentes tóxicos, a principal causa foi medicamentos (40,3%), seguindo alimentos e bebidas (10%), raticidas (6,8%) e drogas de abuso (6%). Dentre circunstâncias, o principal motivo foi tentativa de suicídio (33,5%). Entre 2020-2021, foram 11.279 casos, maior incidência indivíduos de 20-59 anos (59,5%), sexo feminino (58%) e pardos (55%). Destacou-se o agente tóxico medicamentos (41,9%), seguindo drogas (10,2%), alimentos e bebidas (7,8%), produtos de uso domiciliar (5,7%). Quanto às circunstâncias liderou a tentativa de suicídio (36,5%). A pandemia não pareceu afetar significativamente a epidemiologia, porém, o aumento de quase 50% na frequência dos casos de IE por drogas de abuso, comparativamente ao período anterior, reforça o Relatório Mundial sobre Drogas (2021), que apontou crescimento mundial do consumo na pandemia e sugere-se um alerta sobre a saúde mental dos brasileiros.(AU)

RESUMEN

En los últimos años se ha observado un aumento de la prevalencia de la conducta suicida y de los suicidios consumados en la población infantojuvenil. Entendiendo la adolescencia como una ventana sensible en la que implementaractuaciones de promoción de bienestar emocional, consideramos pertinente el análisis de la conducta suicida en estapoblación. A tal efecto este trabajo realiza una revisión comprensiva sobre el tema de interés, estructurando el trabajoen los siguientes epígrafes: conceptualización del fenómeno,factores de riesgo, modelos explicativos, instrumentos deevaluación, intervenciones psicoterapéuticas eficaces y planes actuales de prevención. Se concluye que aún habiendodiseñado múltiples estrategias de intervención, el aumentode prevalencia del suicidio justifica el diseño de nuevos programas con contenidos apropiados, concretos y factibles. (AU)


In recent years, an increase in the prevalence of suicidal behaviour and completed suicides among children andyoung people have been observed. Considering adolescenceas a sensitive point where actions to promote emotional wellbeing can be implemented, we consider relevant the analysis of suicidal behaviour in this population. For this purpose,this paper carries out a comprehensive review of the topic ofinterest, structuring the work under the following headings:phenomenon conceptualization, risk factors, explanatorymodels, assessment instruments, effective psychotherapeutic interventions and current prevention plans. The conclusion isthat while multiple intervention strategies have been developed, the increase in the prevalence of suicide justifies theimplementation of new programs with appropriate, concreteand feasible content.

RESUMEN

Objetivo: identificar a frequência de casos notificados de violência autoprovocada no Espírito Santo entre os anos de 2011 a 2018 e os fatores associados. Método: trata-se de um estudo transversal que utilizou todos os casos notificados de violência autoprovocada registrados no Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação entre 2011 e 2018 no estado do Espírito Santo. A análise multivariada foi realizada pela Regressão de Poisson e o estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa. Resultados: a prevalência da violência autoprovocada foi de 25,1% (IC95%: 24,6-25,5). O grupo de 10 a 19 anos de idade teve uma prevalência cerca de 19 vezes maior de notificação de violência autoprovocada, assim como, pessoas de raça/cor branca (RP: 1,26) e com deficiência/transtornos (RP: 2,85) apresentaram maior frequência desse agravo. Foi observado maior prevalência entre aqueles sem suspeita de uso de álcool (RP: 2,36), com a ocorrência cerca de 4 vezes maior na residência, e, um aumento em cerca de 50% dos casos sem caráter de repetição. Conclusão: a violência autoprovocada no Espírito Santo se apresentou elevada no período estudado e esteve associada a características da vítima e do evento. Profissionais de saúde são fundamentais no processo de rastreio desse agravo e consequentemente em traçar estratégias de prevenção e proteção das vítimas.(AU)


Objective: to analyze the prevalence of reported cases of self-inflicted violence and associated factors in Espírito Santo between 2011 and 2018.Method: this is a cross-sectional study that used all reported cases of self-inflicted violence registered in the Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação between 2011 and 2018, in the state of Espírito Santo. Multivariate analysis was performed using Poisson Regression.Results: the prevalence of self-inflicted violence was 25.1%. The 10 to 19-year-old group had a prevalence of approximately 19 times greater self-inflicted violence report, as did people of white race/color (PR: 1.26) and people with disabilities/disorders (PR: 2.85) showed a higher frequency of this problem. A higher prevalence was observed among those without suspected alcohol use (PR: 2.36), with an occurrence approximately four times higher in the home, and an increase in approximately 50% of non-repeating cases.Conclusion: reports of self-inflicted violence in Espírito Santo were high during the period studied and were associated with characteristics of the victim and the event. Health professionals are fundamental in the process of tracking this problem and consequently in the process of designing prevention and protection strategies for victims.(AU)

RESUMEN

This work aimed to identify variables associated with increased risk of outcome severity as well as to describe clinical manifestations/symptoms and management of pesticide-related cases reported to a poison center in Brazil. An increased risk of more severe outcomes was observed when exposures occurred in rural areas, involved suicide attempts and moderately to extremely hazardous pesticides. Clinical manifestations with higher frequencies included vomiting, nausea, sialorrhea, headache, miosis and sweating. From the treatment initially applied to the patient, 51.91% encompassed gastric lavage, but this procedure was only recommended in 20.01% of cases by the CIATox. Identifying risk factors associated with poor outcome, describing clinical manifestations, and contrasting initial treatment measures adopted against those recommended by the Poison Center can help determine diagnosis, prognosis and ensure appropriate clinical interventions are used in cases of pesticide poisoning.

RESUMEN

Previous studies have reported an association between concussion and suicidality in high school students in the United States. When controlling for multiple life stressors in adolescence (e.g., bullying, substance use, poor grades), however, the relationship between concussion and suicidality was either attenuated or became non-significant in one study. Rather than assessing concussion as a possible risk factor for suicidality, this study examined predictors of ideation, planning, and attempts among youth who experienced concussion in the past year. The sample included 13,677 participants from the 2019 Youth Behavior Risk Survey, of whom 1754 (13%) reported experiencing a concussion in the past year. Binary logistic regressions were conducted to predict ideation, planning, and attempts with modifiable stress factors, including physical activity, bullying, poor grades, insufficient sleep, binge drinking, marijuana use, illicit drug use, and depression. Among adolescents who experienced a concussion in the past year, 25% reported suicidal ideation (31% girls/19% boys), 20% reported suicide planning (25% girls/17% boys), and 15% reported a suicide attempt (17% girls/13% boys). In a multi-variable model among girls with prior year concussion, being bullied (odds ratio [OR] = 2.37), illicit drug use (OR = 2.80), current marijuana use (OR = 2.47), and depression (OR = 9.22) predicted suicidal ideation. Among boys with prior year concussion, being bullied (OR = 2.29) and depression (OR = 9.50) predicted suicidal ideation. Additional models were used to examine the association between having one or more modifiable stressors and suicidality, revealing that having three or more modifiable stressors was associated with a substantial increase in proportions of youth reporting suicidality. Among adolescents experiencing a concussion, treating depression and substance use, stopping bullying, and increasing physical activity may be associated with reduced risk for suicidality.

RESUMEN

Objective@#To understand the current situation of suicide attempts in middle school students and to explore its relation with adolescent parent attachment, to provide a basis for the prevention and control of middle school students suicidal behavior.@*Methods@#A total of 4 419 students from grades 7 to 12 in Ezhou City and Xiaogan City, Hubei Province were selected by stratified cluster random sampling. The Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment, Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, Kessler Psychological Distress Scale were used to conduct a questionnaire Survey, and evaluated the suicide attempts of middle school students.@*Results@#The detection rate of attempted suicide among middle school students was 6.8%. The detection rate of attempted suicide varies among different grades, family types, parental relation, parenting style, family income, self esteem level, and psychological distress( χ 2/ t =3.88, 10.12, 18.00, 52.54, 13.90 , 2.37, 8.99, P <0.05). The scores of paternal attachment and maternal attachment ( 14.64 ±13.45, 14.77±12.26) in the group with attempted suicide were lower than those without attempted suicide(22.05±16.08, 23.79±14.93)( t =-9.07, -12.11, P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that both paternal attachment and maternal attachment were associated with lower rate of suicide attempts among middle school students(paternal attachment, OR=0.99, 95%CI = 0.98 -0.99; maternal attachment OR=0.97, 95%CI =0.96-0.98), with paternal attachment for girls only( OR=0.98, 95%CI= 0.97 -0.99)(P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#Adolescent parent attachment may be a protective factor for middle school students suicide attempts. Sex specific effects are observed in adolescent father attachment in girls. Parents should pay attention to cultivating a good attachment relationship with their children and promote the healthy growth of middle school students.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Objectives: to identify and characterize the care provided to adolescents admitted to an emergency department due to a suicide attempt. Methods: an observational, cross-sectional, descriptive study with a retrospective approach, carried out with medical records of adolescents aged 10 to 19 admitted for suicide attempts, between January 2015 and July 2020, in an emergency department. Data were subjected to descriptive and inferential analysis. Results: eighty-eight service occurrences were identified, mainly to females, exposed to multiple risk factors. Exogenous intoxication was the main method used, occurring at home and on weekdays. There were systemic repercussions, requiring multiple interventions and hospitalizations. Only 26% of cases were notified. Conclusions: adolescents treated for suicide attempts were exposed to multiple risk factors, with intoxication as the main means used. There is concern about the underreporting of cases and the logic of clinical care and medicalization.


RESUMEN Objetivos: identificar y caracterizar la atención brindada a los adolescentes ingresados en un servicio de urgencias y emergencias por intento de suicidio. Métodos: estudio observacional, transversal, descriptivo, con enfoque retrospectivo, realizado con historias clínicas de adolescentes de 10 a 19 años, ingresados por intento de suicidio entre enero de 2015 y julio de 2020 en un servicio de urgencias y emergencias. Los datos fueron sometidos a análisis descriptivo e inferencial. Resultados: fueron identificadas 88 atenciones, principalmente del sexo femenino, expuestas a múltiples factores de riesgo. La intoxicación exógena fue el principal método utilizado, ocurriendo en el domicilio y entre semana. Hubo repercusiones sistémicas, requiriendo múltiples intervenciones y hospitalizaciones. Sólo el 26% de los casos fueron notificados. Conclusiones: los adolescentes asistidos por intento de suicidio estuvieron expuestos a múltiples factores de riesgo, siendo la intoxicación el principal medio utilizado. Preocupa el subregistro de casos y la lógica de atención clínica y medicalización


RESUMO Objetivos: identificar e caracterizar os atendimentos aos adolescentes admitidos em um departamento de urgência e emergência por tentativa de suicídio. Métodos: estudo observacional, transversal, descritivo, com abordagem retrospectiva, realizado com prontuários de adolescentes de 10 a 19 anos, admitidos por tentativa de suicídio entre janeiro de 2015 e julho de 2020 em um departamento de urgência e emergência. Os dados foram submetidos à análise descritiva e inferencial. Resultados: foram identificados 88 atendimentos, principalmente ao sexo feminino, expostos a múltiplos fatores de risco. A intoxicação exógena foi o principal meio utilizado, ocorrida no domicílio e em dias úteis. Houve repercussões sistêmicas, com necessidade de múltiplas intervenções e hospitalizações. Apenas 26% dos atendimentos foram notificados. Conclusões: os adolescentes atendidos por tentativa de suicídio estavam expostos a múltiplos fatores de risco, com a intoxicação como o principal meio utilizado. Preocupa a subnotificação dos casos e a lógica do cuidado clínico e medicalização.
