Abstract

Suicide is a global public health and social problem. It has important emotional consequences for the relatives of the deceased, as well as economic and emotional consequences for the rest of the community. Herein lies the importance of the early detection of potential cases and of utilizing adequate interventions. The present protocol was organized as a way of standardizing and giving the appropriate hierarchy to all interventions practiced in patients with suicidal risk within Hospital del Salvador.
