abstract="The present study was carried out in a Turin Hospital and considers interventions for attempted suicide in the period March-May 1988, examining psychopathological and social characteristics. No epidemiological evaluation was made of the problem but rather an analysis of the specialist and general assistance given to these patients in First Aid structures, the therapeutic protocols that preceded the attempted suicide, motivations and modalities involved. In addition, a three-month follow-up looked at the therapeutic destiny of the cases. In the last analysis, an attempt was made to evaluate the therapeutic interaction between local psychiatric services and the First Aid facility of a general hospital: in fact, according to the health service reform law and the application of Law 180, the DEA, as a hospital structure, forms part of the structures delegated to the treatment of mental disturbances.<p /> <p>Language: it</p>",
