Always On EM - Mayo Clinic Emergency MedicineGrand Rounds - Dr. Michael Wilson - What your psychiatrist isn't telling you about suicide prevention in the EDWhether or not emergency physicians believe that patients with thoughts of self-harm belong in the ED, they are coming to your ED anyway. According to the Centers for Disease Control, ED visit rates for nonfatal self-harm increased 42% among persons 10 years or older, and visits for suicidal ideation, self-directed violence, or both increased 25.5% from 2017-2018. That’s an increase of more than 1% per month pre-COVID. This solutions-oriented talk will discuss some of the science behind suicide prevention in the ED, and will present techniques that you can use to reduce risk in your ED.
