摘要：
Suicide rates among older adults have risen significantly, with men aged 75 and older showing the highest risk. Mood disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder, are key contributors to suicidality in this population. Biological factors, including chronic medical conditions and cognitive impairment, as well as psychosocial factors, such as isolation and bereavement, exacerbate risk. Effective prevention strategies include early identification through screening tools, integrated care models, and interventions like psychotherapy, antidepressants, and, for severe cases, electroconvulsive therapy. A multidisciplinary approach that addresses mental health, social support, and physical well-being is critical to mitigating suicide risk in geriatric populations.
