对做出医学上严重的自杀企图的个体中进一步自杀行为的比率进行分析可能有助于根据个体的基线特征和自杀企图指数来预测自杀和自杀企图。数据取自一项为期 5 年的研究，该研究对 302 名在医学上有过严重自杀企图的个体进行了研究，并在基线、尝试自杀后 6、18、30 和 60 个月通过个人访谈收集了信息。 5年内，6.7%的人死于自杀； 37% 的人至少尝试过一次非致命性自杀。尽管基线特征允许对自杀企图进行适度的预测，但只能对自杀进行非常有限的预测。几乎一半的严重自杀未遂者在 5 年内再次尝试致命或非致命。这些发现意味着需要加强对所有严重自杀未遂患者的随访、治疗和监测。
Analysis of rates of further suicidal behavior among individuals making medically serious suicide attempts may help to predict suicide and suicide attempt from baseline characteristics of the individual and the index suicide attempt. Data are drawn from a 5-year study of 302 individuals making medically serious suicide attempts with information collected by personal interview at baseline, 6, 18, 30, and 60 months after the index attempt. Within 5 years, 6.7% died by suicide; 37% made at least one nonfatal suicide attempt. Although baseline characteristics permitted a modest prediction of suicide attempt, only a very limited prediction of suicide was possible. Almost-half of those who made serious suicide attempts made a further fatal or nonfatal attempt within 5 years. These findings imply the need for enhanced follow-up, treatment, and surveillance of all patients making serious suicide attempts.
