TY - JOUR PY - 2019// TI - Doenças crônicas não transmissíveis e sua relação com o comportamento suicida no âmbito hospitalar JO - Ciênc. cuid. saúde A1 - Magalhães, Karla de Souza A1 - Figueiredo, Ana Elisa Bastos SP - e457881 EP - e457881 VL - 18 IS - 3 N2 - OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to learn about what is being produced by scientific publications on the relationship between non-communicable chronic diseases and suicidal behavior in hospital context.

METHOD: A literature integrative review was carried out with articles published between 2006 and 2016 on SciELO Virtual Library and these databases:Portal BVS, Scopus, Web of Science, and Pubmed.

RESULT: The mental health of patients with non-communicable chronic diseases may be heavily affected, putting them in a position of risk for suicidal behavior. Researches in different countries and with different methodologies have evidenced lack of knowledge and preparation from healthcare teams at general hospitals in the face of suicide within the studied population.

CONCLUSION: Professionals working with high-complexity care urgently need training and qualification to identify and properly handle suicidal behavior in hospital context. Moreover, every patient admitted to chronic disease sectors must go through a more comprehensive anamnesis that includes specific questions concerning mental health and risk of suicide.
