本研究的目的是确定自杀儿童和青少年的照顾者是否接受了急诊科（艾德）伤害预防教育，并确定伤害预防教育和药物过量后的医疗结果是否与照顾者限制获得自杀手段有关。研究对象为儿童及青少年之成人照顾者，其故意服用药物并接受艾德评估，资料来源于毒物中心病历审查及电话访谈。14%的看护者报告说，他们接受了关于限制在家中使用潜在自杀手段的伤害预防教育。艾德伤害预防教育与看护者限制自杀手段的使用显著相关，即使控制了自杀企图的医疗后果。由于父母不太可能在没有教育的情况下限制获得自杀手段，因此应在教育署提供有关限制获得自杀手段的预防伤害教育。桑德斯公司
The study objectives were to ascertain whether caretakers of suicidal children and adolescents received emergency department (ED) injury prevention education and to determine if injury prevention education and the medical outcome after a drug overdose are associated with caretakers restricting access to means of suicide. Participants were adult caretakers of children and adolescents who deliberately ingested a drug and received ED evaluation, Information was obtained by poison center chart review and phone interview. Fourteen percent of caretakers re ported receiving injury prevention education concerning restriction of access to potential means of suicide at home. ED injury prevention education is significantly associated with caretakers restricting access to suicidal means, even when controlling for medical outcome from the attempt. Because parents are less likely to restrict access to means of suicide without education, injury prevention education about restricting access to means of suicide should be given in the ED.
