abstract="This prospective study of suicidal emergency department (ED) patients (ages 10-18) examined the timing, cumulative probability, and predictors of suicide attempts through 18 months of follow-up. The cumulative probability of attempts was as follows:.15 at 6 months,.22 at 1 year, and.24 by 18 months. One attempt was fatal, yielding a death rate of.006. Significant predictors of suicide attempt risk included a suicide attempt at ED presentation (vs. suicidal ideation only), nonsuicidal self-injurious behavior, and low levels of delinquent symptoms. <br><br>RESULTS underscore the importance of both prior suicide attempts and nonsuicidal self-harm as risk indicators for future and potentially lethal suicide attempts.<br><br>© 2016 The American Association of Suicidology.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
