摘要
To analyze suicidal care episodes in emergency medical responses in Germany. Anonymized data from emergency care episodes in Ulm from 2004 to 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. 158 of 933 psychiatric emergencies (16 %) were suicide related, including 14 completed suicides, 25 care episodes with suicidal ideation, and 119 suicide attempts. Significantly more men than women completed suicide (chi A(2)(2,N = 934) = 12.70, p = 0.02). 93 % of the total psychiatric emergencies received any medication at all, and only about 33 % were transported to a psychiatric hospital. Psychiatric treatment for suicidality in emergency medicine requires improvement to ensure that patients receive adequate therapy.
