This is a follow-up study of 44 patients who were admitted to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh after frequent deliberate self-harm (defined as three or more episodes of deliberate self-harm within one week) at least once between 1982 and 1987. Forty-two patients (95%) were traced after a minimum of three years (range 3yr 1 mo 8yr 9mo). Thirty eight patients were known to have repeated self-harm an average of 13 times during the follow-up. Only two patients had died, one of these by probable suicide. The average cost solely attributable to the in-patient accommodation and psychiatric assessment of this group during follow-up was 34,036.60 pounds (1986-87 prices).
这是一项对44例患者的随访研究，这些患者在1982年至1987年期间至少有一次因频繁故意自我伤害（定义为一周内三次或更多次故意自我伤害发作）而入住爱丁堡皇家医院。至少三年后（范围为3年1个月至8年9个月）追踪到了42例患者（95%）。已知38例患者在随访期间平均重复自我伤害13次。只有2例患者死亡，其中1例可能死于自杀。随访期间仅归因于该组住院住宿和精神科评估的平均费用为34,036.60英镑（1986 - 87年价格）。
