abstract="Latent class analysis of medical records data from 3,523 emergency department (ED) patients (ages 14-24; 31% Caucasian; 67% female) distinguished six groups with varying histories of suicidal ideation and behavior based on items endorsed on the Behavioral Health Screen, a web based, nurse-initiated screening tool. As expected, the more severe suicidality groups reported higher levels of depressive symptoms, traumatic distress, and substance abuse symptoms. <br><br>FINDINGS support the validity of the BHS and its utility as a medical decision tool to help ED staff evaluate the severity of patients' suicidality.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
