To characterize adolescent and adult suicide attempts and self-harm reported in Santa Catarina, Brazil, from 2014 to 2018.
This was a cross-sectional descriptive study with data from the Notifiable Health Conditions Information System. The sociodemographic, clinical and type of self-inflicted violence characteristics among adolescents and adults were compared.
Among the 8,859 notifications analyzed, suicide attempts predominated in relation to self-mutilation; self-inflected violence was more frequent in females, those of white skin color and with mental disorders; it occurred more at home, in both age groups. Among adolescents, repeated self-mutilation (83.3%) stood out, while among adults, repeated suicide attempts (50.6%) and suspected alcohol use (18.3%) at the time of violence stood out.
We identified high prevalence of attempted suicide among adolescents and adults; the characteristics of violence were similar between the age groups analyzed.
描述 2014 年至 2018 年巴西圣卡塔琳娜州报告的青少年和成年自杀未遂和自残情况。
这是一项横断面描述性研究，数据来自法定传染病信息系统。对青少年和成年人的人口统计学、临床和自我伤害类型特征进行了比较。
在分析的 8859 份通知中，自杀未遂的比例高于自残；女性、白种人、有精神障碍者更易发生自我伤害；自残多发生在家中，两个年龄组均如此。青少年中突出的是重复自残（83.3%），而成年人中突出的是自残时重复自杀未遂（50.6%）和疑似酒精使用（18.3%）。
我们发现青少年和成年人自杀未遂的发生率较高；分析的两个年龄组之间暴力特征相似。
