Risk factors for inpatient suicide: A case-control study
Abstract: The aim of this work was to study the factors associated with suicide risk in patients with general illness who are hospitalized in a high complexity institution. A case-control study with patients hospitalized due to general illness was conducted in 2018 including 115 cases and 155 controls. Independent variables were sex, age, previous suicide attempt, medical diagnosis, psychiatric disorder and uncontrolled pain. The variables associated with suicide risk during hospitalization were male sex and previous suicide attempt (OR 2.21 and 4.08 respectively). Not having a diagnosis of depression and younger age were protective factors (OR 0.05 and 0.95 respectively). This study is one of the few focused on inpatient suicide risk in Latin America. Our findings suggest that the inclusion of young male patients in strategies aimed at preventing inpatient suicide should be a priority.

Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo fue estudiar los factores asociados a riesgo suicida en pacientes con enfermedad general en una institución de alta complejidad. Se realizó un estudio de casos y controles en pacientes hospitalizados por enfermedad general en 2018, se incluyeron 115 casos y 155 controles. Las variables independientes fueron sexo, edad, intento suicida previo, diagnóstico médico, trastorno psiquiátrico y dolor no controlado. Las variables asociadas a riesgo suicida durante la hospitalización fueron sexo masculino y antecedente de intento suicida (OR 2.21 y 4.08 respectivamente). No tener diagnóstico de depresión y una menor edad fueron factores protectores (OR 0.05 y 0.95 respectivamente). Este estudio es de los pocos enfocado en riesgo suicida intrahospitalario en Latinoamérica. Los hallazgos sugieren que se debe priorizar la inclusión de pacientes jóvenes de sexo masculino en las estrategias encaminadas a la prevención de suicidio intra-hospitalario.
Palabras clave: Riesgo suicida; comportamiento suicida; suicidio intrahospitalario; hospital general; Latinoamérica; Colombia.
