“…A study of 1,699 Victorian high school students aged 15 to 16 years found that 5.1% of students had deliberately har med themselves in the previous year and 0.2% had attempted to kill themselves. 10 The Western Australian Child Health Survey, a study of a community sample of 12 to 16 year olds, found somewhat higher rates of deliberate self-harm with 8% deliberatel y trying to hurt or kill themselves in the previous six months. 11 A study of 1,678 undergraduate students (mean age: 21.9 years) in Brisbane, Queensland, found that 15% reported some suicidal behaviour during the previous year and 7% had attempted suicide.…”

“…Teóricamente, las conductas autolesivas pueden diferenciarse de los intentos suicidas en tres aspectos básicos: intención, repetición y letalidad [33][34][35][36] . El intento suicida tiene como intención terminar con la vida, a diferencia de las conductas autolesivas que pueden tener motivaciones como las anteriormente descritas.…”

Self-injurious acts are understood as transnosologic behaviors, which by their vital risk andIntroducción L a observación directa o indirecta de conductas autolesivas deliberadamente autoprovocadas por una persona con o sin patología mental diagnosticada, provoca gran impacto social, ya que la búsqueda de la sobrevivencia es un principio inherente tanto a los seres humanos como al resto de los animales. En la práctica médica, estas conductas constituyen un problema clínico cada vez más frecuente. No obstante, habitualmente son pobremente comprendidas generando sentimientos ambivalentes en los profesionales de la salud.Esclarecer el concepto de conductas autolesivas, estableciendo sus límites y factores de riesgo, permite proponer un apropiado abordaje diagnóstico y terapéutico. De este modo es posible contribuir a ayudar más eficientemente a las personas que padecen este síndrome conductual.Se realiza un trabajo de revisión bibliográfica, incluyendo la literatura publicada entre los años 1960 y 2010, en revistas indexadas ISI, revistas no indexadas nacionales y capítulos de libros. Debe explicitarse que este artículo no tiene el objetivo de ser una revisión bibliográfica sistemática, sino más bien una lectura comprensiva de la literatura

Neither the act of cutting itself nor the broad terminology used to describe it (e.g.…”

SummaryYoung people who cut themselves may do so for reasons that go beyond diagnosis. Relevant processes include responses to trauma, coping, emotion regulation and cultural identification. Some clinicians regard those who self-harm negatively or consider one therapeutic approach to be suitable for all. This article explores the possible mechanisms involved when young people cut themselves and discusses therapeutic approaches in the light of these. Clinicians and researchers are encouraged to refine, develop and research interventions for young people who self-harm by cutting. DeClaraTioN of iNTereSTNone.

Adolescent suicidal behaviours: a population-based study of risk

Abstract: Deliberate self-harm was common but the great majority of episodes were not 'true suicide attempts'. It is, therefore, possible that attributable mortality and morbidity may be greater in self-harmers without definite suicidal intent.
