In the setting of the current youth mental health crisis and increasing rates of suicide, detecting suicide risk and intervening to prevent it is crucial. Factors that confer an elevated risk of suicide attempts and death by suicide include past suicide attempts, nonsuicidal self-injurious behavior, psychiatric disorders, gender and sexual minority identity, family history, history of trauma and loss, bullying, a lack of connectedness, and access to lethal means. Proper screening, assessment, and crisis planning may help save lives and reverse the trend of increasing youth suicide rates.
在当前青少年心理健康危机和自杀率不断上升的背景下，检测自杀风险并进行干预以预防自杀至关重要。导致自杀未遂和自杀死亡风险升高的因素包括过去的自杀未遂、非自杀性自伤行为、精神疾病、性别和性少数群体身份、家族史、创伤和丧失史、欺凌、缺乏联系以及获得致命手段的机会。适当的筛查、评估和危机规划可能有助于挽救生命并扭转青少年自杀率上升的趋势。
