N2  - Self-harm remains an important public health problem and two sets of clinical guidelines have been published recently. While these include elements of accepted good practice they are not evidence-based. Further research mightconcentrate on either very large trials of low-intensity interventions or smaller trials of longer-term psychological treatments. The current management of self-harm may be improved by shifting professionals' views, involving users in staff training, and changing service provision - perhaps moving from risk assessment to needs assessment.
