The authors describe nine psychiatric inpatients from the same hospital who leaped from a height. Common features included youth, social isolation, diagnosis of schizophrenia, and chronic psychosis despite neuroleptic therapy. All had prolonged hospitalizations and a history of assaults, suicide attempts, or both. The authors suggest that these characteristics in conjunction with a recent change in hospital treatment plan or loss of social supports may identify patients at high-risk for violent self-destructive acts.
作者描述了来自同一家医院的9名跳楼的精神科住院患者。共同特征包括年轻、社会隔离、精神分裂症诊断以及尽管接受了抗精神病药物治疗仍存在慢性精神病症状。所有人都有长期住院史，且有攻击行为、自杀未遂史或两者皆有。作者认为，这些特征与近期医院治疗方案的改变或社会支持的丧失相结合，可能会识别出有暴力自毁行为高风险的患者。
